While I am all for building my own equipment from sratch, sometimes you come across a deal you just can't pass up. I bought this row crop cultivator at an auction for $65, just because it was $65. It sat around for a while, but I wanted to plant some potatoes and was looking for an easy way to furrow for potatoes so I removed all the cultivation parts, bought 2 12" furrowers from agrisupply and used 2 spare cultivator shanks off my Farmall Super 'A' to make a 2 row potato furrower. I was so happy with how everything fit together and the cultivator was already made to accept 1-13/16" shaft attachments like hillers or old style Farmall cultivation equipment.
Next year this will get turned into a 2 row carousel type potato planter, but we just needed to get the job done for this summer so we planted by hand.
My next project hangs in the works...
