Multi use tool bar-hiller, cultivator,

[paulsharvey]

Might be wrong place, didn't see a 'garden' topic. I know 'someone' used to make/sell a 3 point cat-1 tool bar, that had interchangeable hilling disks, cultivator tines, and some other bolt on stuff. I have no idea who made them, if they still do, and what the impliment was called?

I finally got feed up with garden, and ripped all the weeds/old plants, ect up with the loader this evening, but not really looking forward to reestablishing the hills and all by hand. It's a really small garden, maybe 40 ft x 60 ft, and fenced, so it maneuverability is kinda limited. Soil is extremely sandy. Don't own a tiller, and can't justify price to buy a 3 pnt tiller.

Also, if anyone has one, and it was not worth the cost/effort, be good to have feed back.

Thank you, that one from ASC was what I was thinking of, but couldn't remember what it was called, or who offered it.

For comparison, King Kutter 3 Point Hitch Disc Bedder, Red - DB-RR

I had a 3pt frame and welded two large pieces of metal at an angle to make raised beds in my garden.

BTW, I sold the Kubota L285, and now have a Kioti Ck2610Hst. No idea how to update my profile.

Another alternative is: Woodward Crossing 3pt Toolbar I think Jeff set one of these up with S-tines a number of years ago in the single tool bar configuration. Depending on your exact needs you probably can replicate this setup for less cost but on the other hand it is nice sometimes to buy the package that just works together.

Anyone ever make their own 3 point tool bar using 2" tube? I made one using 2" 14 ga, galvanized sign post, some megalug T-bolts, and a couple scraps of #5 rebar. Wondering about picking up some S-tines, Danish sweeps, and 2" S-tine clamps ($69 @ ASC, but shipping is more like $99). They have the disc hiller with shank for around $50/each, but im not really sure how I would attach the round hiller shank to the square tube, where it resists the pulling and rotation forces, while still being removable and adjustable.

I know the sign post isn't that heavy duty, but it was free. At first, just to tear things up, I took a 4 ft piece of heavy 2" drill pipe, and welded rail road spikes to it at about 4" OC, but it clogs up super fast, and ends up pulling like a rear blade.
