[jack707]

So now I have something to go over the seeds now.

Awesome!! Please let us know how it works. Will be ordering my wheels soon to build mine very similar to yours.

Thanks!!! - I took the tractor in for service I'll post a pic when I get it back.

By the way, have you calculated a total weight for the implement?

 

[jack707]

I would say about 500lbs but I still has scrap left over so I am going to weld them on top.

Great job. What color will you be painting her?

 

[jack707]

Maybe the color of my tractor blue

The cultipacker worked!! I wish I made one that covered the tracks .

 

[Buty]

How wide did you make it and how wide is your tractor? How fast did you drive?

 

[jack707]

My tractor is 6 ' wide the packer is 60 " wide. I drove in 1st that crawling! About 2 or3mph. I might make one that's wider to cover the tracks.

 

[Buty]

I don't think it matters. According to the food plot guys ,the seeds will come up first in the tire tracks. My tractor is 60" and that's what I am making mine. We'll see. I don't think my tracks will be covered either.
