What do you use your cultivator for other than cultivating?

When not in use as a cultivator....I removed the two centers and built a disc hller to add(used to make raised beds) works well.I purchased all the parts from Agrisupply....a little welding involved.

I saw that EA offered a hiller attachment for one of their cultivators... pricey though. How much did you have in your version?

After searching for a section or two of old C tine drag at farm auctions, I gave up and now just use the cultivator. It is almost as good, and by being on the 3 pt instead of on a chain being pulled, it works very well.

If I could pick up some Danish, one sided sweeps for the center, it might work good for throwing dirt up on potatoes. Some have tried it and like it.

That KK 1 row cult makes a fine 2 row laying off plow for making garden rows. Just remove the inner 4 shanks and wrap a grass sack around the outside 2 shanks. A 2 row cultivator will do excellent for a 3 row laying off plow. Ken Sweet

I remove the sheilds and 4 of the shanks from my Dearborn 13-2 springshank. Evenly space out the remaining shanks, it's like a miniature chisel plow on various plots I've got rye cover on. I can sink it pretty deep, busts up the ground prior to seed bed prep. Works good. :thumbsup: Mark
