They show using it to rake and clear land with it on their web site. I didn’t see anything about toenails but I guess you could get creative.

No but I sure looked hard at them! 

Ended up with a regular tooth bar.  Really heavy duty and an absolute must for serious moving of packed or stoney dirt!  Handy to push or back drag out rocks, limbs and debris.  Certainly adds to the effective use of a plain straight bucket!  A tooth bar can tear into a rockwall where a flat front edge bucket can't begin to do anything but bump into it!  Logs have something to rest on too.  You lose the smooth back scraping with the front lip so it's hand to be able to unbolt it!  I try to groups tasks for tooth bar on and then tooth bar off.

 Is it a 48" tooth bar??  Where did you get it?  The ratchet rake smallest is 52"  My D200 FEL is only 48....

My bucket is 40" overall. Tooth bar is 39 1/2". This was not special order. Ordered it Sunday night (Easter) and had it Tuesday afternoon. www.neatfarms.com 20210407_132311.jpg.47303e1dab861e25b68bc4214ffb44be.jpg20210411_153746.jpg.5ac1fe0184d267f134424af54236742a.jpgoverkill for wheel horse, but you shouldn't hurt it. I planned on making one but didn't think I'd save much at $218....20210411_153936.jpg.8fe965e25be2293e97543940212fb736.jpg
