| I'm having trouble getting the pictures through. I resized them in Windows Paint the first time and then pasted them the first time and they didn't come through. I followed the instructions for photo bucket and when I pasted them they just came through as computer language. I will keep trying. |

| I believe what you have is a QUACK DIGGER, used to rip open grass fields. I have one I use to cultivate 40 inch food plot rows. |

That looks to be the WD Field cultivator. Those spring teeth are the same as used on a "Row Crop" cultivator. That won't do all that much in sod ground, but works nicely in tilled ground. What's referred to as a Quack digger, AC named a "Coil Spring Field Cultivator" and was built somewhat heavier. On that the coil spring shanks were about 1 inch square. ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

Can't tell from your picture very well, but is it like this one? I'm not aware of the model number. Norm's book refers to them as spring tooth field cultivators.

| That looks exactly like the one I have, I have guage wheeles on mine and have converted it to a 3 point attachment. I was told it was a quack digger, sorry if this was incorrect. They do a good job on cleaning up roots and brush. |

| Yes that looks the same as mine but I have steel gauge wheels on the front of mine. Your pictures are a lot better than mine. (My shed is waiting for a good spring cleaning.) Thanks for the help. |

| From the manuals I have seen on ebay. I think it is a WD / WD45 field cultivator. |

| yeah, gauge wheels would be a nice feature to have. mine just goes in as far as it goes and so far the '45 has pulled it. it is a nice implement to have for working up the garden and sweet corn patch. |

I have been kinda watching for one too. I found one, but I think it mist be gold plated. Lol. What should one in decent shape run? The one I found does have the guage wheels. I really have no idea on value, just thought that guy was pretty high. |

| Got mine for $100 7 or 8 years ago. A real bargain considering what people are quoting now. Wow. Things have gone crazy price wise! |

| No need for wheels when the traction booster is working. Mine works great. |
