This weekend I finally got to play with one of my All Crop Drills, I put about 2 acres of oats in. Hope everything worked on it? I guess I will be able to tell in a couple weeks.     ------------- Unless your are the lead horse the scenery never changes!! |

Can you still get drop hoses for these?? When we got new ones for mine, we had to do some modification.

Austin, the originals for the seeder attachment, were actually steel tubes. I have a full set for mine. Also, the original for the main seed box and fert. bin, were a coiled steel spring type tube. And almost all of the fert. ones rusted out. I am not sure if anyone makes these anymore? I might need a couple before a restore. If not, will have to go the drop hose route. ------------- Galatians 5:22-24 "I got a pig at home in a pen and corn to feed him on, All I need is a pretty little girl to feed him when I'm gone!" |

Acutally, the early drills had metal seed tubes, shortly after they began using the rubber seed tubes. The grass seed tubes are kindof a one of a kind tube, the seed tubes can be easily substituted by seed tubes from other drills or fertilizer tubes on corn planters. Jim
