Building a Chisel Plow for my Kubota

[zionview]

Whoops, I thought he was talking to me. Sorry for the derail.

Derail a little more, please. Is the post made of disc gang hubs? I built a disc out of an old 8 foot drag disc, and have left over parts. How is it supported in the ground? Sorry to jump on you, but that's really original and I know my wife would love it.:thumbsup:

I took the shovel off of my potato plow and put a point on it and did mu gardens about a foot deep and a foot apart. It was all my little massey would do but I wanted to break up any hard pan from other users.

Got an pictures, Ed?

Yep, those are the spacers between blades. I used the disk axle to stack them on.

The original base was a cast front wheel off a Farmall F12. When I built the new planter and went to move the hanger into it, the welds let go (cast iron wheel and cast iron spacers...well beyond my welding capabilities) so I drove a suitably-sized piece of pipe into the ground, tamped stone dust around it to firm it up and then set the hanger into it.

It's a sort of hobby of mine to build "sculptures" out of junk farm equipment. Some examples here for anyone interested.

Thanks, Paul! If I don't have enough to do the hanging plant stand, I know I have enough to make a bird bath. And thanks for the link, lots of good ideas!

Yer welcome. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

PHPaul, the wife liked the birdbath idea more than the hangar. I was several spacers short of the hangar anyway. It only took about an hour to make. If wife happy, zionview happy.

There ya go!

Where in Central PA? Got a good friend lives near Danville, which I guess is North Central.

I'm about 70 miles west of Danville, about 12 miles east of Penn State. I also have a friend in Danville, worked with him for 5 years. Waiting for the wife to notice the birdbath. I set it on the septic tank. I can't leave anything alone.
