I recently recieved a ball of 2x2 angle iron that was once a 5.5 ft three point disc harrow but was ran over by a log skidder due to being left on a grown up wooded fence row. Initially it was headed to the scrap yard but after studying it , it became clear that the gangs and gang hangers...

This plow turns 30" a pass whitch is like a pair 15" moldboards. It does pull a bit easier I think . I'm currently turning about 6" deep bit it will go up to the spools in loose or soft ground.i have see the ones with individual axlesand 2 or 3 blades but never one wit all blades of the same...

Years ago while in high school agriculture class built a single offset disc to go behind my dads Yanmar 220. I made it from 2 gangs with 4 blades each and a channel iron frame. I still have it and used it with my Yanmar 226 . To the question....has anybody made a offset 3pt disc harrow...

This is a ford 10-289 disc tiller. After selling my Yanmar 226 and buying a tafey di35 I needed more of a plow than the single bottom 14" turning plow i had behind 226. The ground i am breaking has not been broken in a few years and I am preparing for a spring plant. This thing is like a mold...

Fellas i was considering buying a heavy 5ft disc harrow to go behind my tafe di35 (235 Massey ) and after looking at the quality and price I believe I am going to build my own. I have located 2 sets of disc wing gang from a large folding international disc . Each gang consist of 6 22" disc...

Update , I fabricated a gage wheel so that all the tractor has to do is pull the plow in stead of floating the plow. the difference is nothing short of amazing.

That plow is measured from the frame to plow point.rather than from rear tip of the shear across to the rail. Resulting In the width of turned ground per plow.

You are correct in that my tires are not loaded and it is dry and I am spinning when I stall. My tires are running in the correct direction I am going to water the rear tires before I break ground and add front weight since I'm light on the front when the plow is in the ground.

Some time it is just easier to cut one out your self or get a fab shop to do it.

Welcome back.

That size tire will use is the same as in an auto /standard tire. The larger ones are in commercial loaders and large construction equipment.

Ok I have to admit the thought of a 18" plow had me scratching my head so I googled the 18" Pittsburg mould board plow and it is a fraction of the plow Iam pulling. Mine is a howse for a full size tractor.

I am definitely going to upgrade my tractor but I do not want to go so large that my current implements are useless.

I intend to grow veggies for market once I retire in the years to come, as for now I am breaking this ground that was cleared about 5 years ago and I have been bus hogging ever since. I intend t start adding organic matter such as cotton trash and chicken litter to get it ready to grow so I...

I hope to have near 3 acres when I'm through.
