[AT] McCormick plow

[Herb Metz]

Ton, I share your thoughts on time required to wear out a moldboard plow; 
even if they had some unusually abrasive soil condition.  A decent condition 
plow, most any make or kind, should not be too hard to find, especially in 
the Midwest. Most any farm sale, tractor show, used equipment lot.   Or buy 
a multi-bottom and resell the portion you do not use; but that may involve 
some extra linkage, so may not be a good idea?
And then, Happy Plowing.
Herb

Part of the negotiations for my recent purchase of a Super A resulted in
my owning a one-bottom plow.  I can hardly imagine sitting on one of
those little tractors plowing long enough to completely wear out a plow,
but someone certainly did.  The share and moldboard are completely
shot.  It looks to me that I should just locate a moldboard and share
from a newer plow to bolt on the good plow frame/beam.  I am looking for
thoughts and suggestions. Or new A193 plow parts.
