[AT] Disk Plow or One-Way Plow

[Cecil R Bearden]

Well, Saturday morning, woke up to rain!!!!!!!   Weatherman forecast 1/2 
inch and we received a little over 2 inches.  There was not very much 
runoff thank goodness.
  While checking on my cattle, I found an old 9ft. Allis Disk that was 
once a snap coupler that Dad & I modified to 3 point.  We never had much 
luck with it on our smaller tractors, and it was cast off in the 
grass.   It had been there over 25 years.   Yesterday I hooked it up to 
the NH TS110 and found 2 JD wheel weights to put on each side.  It was 
about 16 inch disks, with sealed bearings.  The adjustable link from the 
top link to the rear of the disk stripped out after about 4 hours 
running, but I welded a nut on it and went back to work.    We used to 
pull this disk with our 36hp diesel, now pulling it with a 110 hp was 
really hilarious.   However, I double disked it, and it really did a 
decent job down about 4 inches.  It did better than that One-Way I 
bought.   ( Wife was sure to point that out, OUCH!!)  I now have the 
wheat field disked up waiting on additional moisture.   Ran may not 
happen until Friday here, so I may try something else.   Since we got 
the moisture and it soaked in, I was thinking about the 8 ft 
Roto-Tiller.  It would get the soil ready to sow, and then next year I 
could run the Big Ox V-Plow.   I definitely will get the 2470 Case ready 
by next year....
