Here's something I found a while ago - the world's largest single bottom plow.

Dan that plow ain't so big...
and that's old horse power pulling it. Shoot, I could pull it just fine with my Kubota L3240.










OK
maybe not. ;)

Was I seeing thing or were the tires on the tractor the plow was hooked to not turning??
Bill

It's an optical illusion created by the frame rate of the video catching the ribs on the tires in the same relative position.

Tractor Rob is mostly right, and you have seen this effect before in just about all car video. If the object is moving slower than the frame rate, the rotation will look normal. If the frame rate is equal, the object/moving tires, will appear to stand still. If the object is going faster than the frame rate of the video, the object/tires will appear to be moving in reverse.

In the Navy, tuning electronics equipment, we used something similar called the strobe effect to tune motors in navigation gear to a certain speed, and the effect was the same.

Did you see the one I think is of the front tractor disking?

YouTube - Kubota 245DT Pulling An 8 Foot Disk #2

They sure are weighting that disk and not sure I have ever seen weights on a moldboard plow.

Yes, I saw this video. They have a lot of work ahead of them but I'm sure they'll get it done.

Weights on the moldboard...
Hmmm. I saw that. Just guessing, I would think that the shares on the plow are worn and the plow won't take the ground properly. It seemed to be pointed down quite a bit. The ground didn't look to be all that hard though.Of course, like I said, I'm just guessing.

I have a friend that has a two bottom Dearborn that would come out of the ground when he came to a place that was hard. I looked at his shares and they were worn to oblivion. He got new shares and now his draft control works on his tractor. :) He was amazed.
