DB,
You sure do work fast!! What kind of blade did you start from? Do the forks slide or are they fixed?
Nice work!

Thanks Jack The plow is a John Deere 380 60" The forks are adjustable and i can take them off to use the lifting pole. The pole can also be used on my 3 pt. I need to build the thumb yet but the forks will do for now.

Nice work and great pix!

How long have you had your 4500Y?

I am a new owner. I took possession of my 4500Y on December 27. I describe my entry into the World of Ventrac and my foray to date here.

Best,

John

Did what I believe will be my last tilling job of the season yesterday,this machine and tiller is amazing, every time I do a garden I get more calls from word of mouth. ..people's jaws drop when they see there garden double tilled in 5 minutes and so soft they sink into it 5-6 inches. .here's a pic ready for the road.

They must be small gardens to do them in 5 min.

I remember seeing a video of someone using the Ventrac tiller and backing out so the tires don't run over the fresh tilling job.
If I did a garden - I would either do raised beds or have a Ventrac tiller !

When I was still in school and at home - we had about 1/2 acre of garden - guess who had the weeding job !!! I got my fill of gardening ! After I graduated - Dad got big rolls of black plastic and put them down after tilling - slots for rows and holes for things like tomato plants = no weeding ! Asked why he did that AFTER I was not there to weed - Dad said that it kept me out of trouble !
