I added a little weight (approximately 650lbs) to my 3pt. disk. The two pieces of chain are attached to a piece of rebar, in the middle, that runs the entire length of the concrete. The treated 2 x 10 was the bottom of the form used to pour the concrete and has been left in place to serve as a buffer between the concrete surface of the weight and the metal surface of the disk frame. I've used two tiedown straps to secure it to the disk and things seem to work GREAT.

Neat job there. Looks like the 2x10 is notched in two places above the harrow frame? I guess this is to keep it from sliding side to side? That should do the trick, but there ain't nothing little about 650 lbs!!
