[AT] Finally done

[Gilbert Schwartz]

Ricky; You make a trip across the field plowing, when you get to the end you 
trip out, turn around on a headland and come back throwing the dirt toward 
what you just plowed. You then simply plow back and forth, turning on the 
headlands at each end, untill you feel you're driving too much while not 
plowing. Then simply move over and do the same thing until the field is 
plowed, at that point you plow out the headlands and go to the house. 
Needless to say this all works best in relatively square or rectangular 
fields. In other fields you have to finish the irregular edges when you get 
to them. (these plows aren't totally stiff behind the tractor, there is a 
certain ability to turn with them in the ground) This is all pretty much 
pointless now days with no-till and minimum till. Moleboard plows, 
especially the larger ones, are almost junk price around here, kind of like 
row crop cultivators.Gil
