borrowed a 3 bottom snap coupler from a buddy of mine, plowed almost all afternoon with it in various fields. i have to say, it is very enjoyable, the ol WD-45 didnt even know it was back there.

i have a 14 inch 1 bottom plow on y B... used it to do 2 acres today. I can truthfully say you are 10 x better at this than i am!!  Mine is a 3 point hitch type, Dearborn... i got ot lear how to adjust that thing.. I only use it 4-5 hours a year and never spend the time to setup, then complain afterward..LOL  Yours looks great!!

PLowing job looks good. It looks like the front bottom is in deeper than the back bottom.

yeah, i was pretty surprised at how nice of job it did and how nice a job i did. ran it in 2nd gear, i couldnt beleive that it hardly knew it was back there..i got the plow more level now, the hand crank was locked up, it plows alot better now.

I agree with all the above.  Great set up and great job. 
The think that amazes me is the rich black earth you all seem to have.  Does not even compare to the red clay rock we have in my area of Maryland.
Good Luck!

its not as good of soil as it looks. it hasnt been plowed for several years. it could be worse, but we sure do have some sand and billygoat hills. but im sure it is better the clay..lol

Looks like an excellent job! Love to see that dark dirt. Mostly Clay here. Would probably make that WD-45 bark a little, especially with hills like that, which we have here too.

But the WD45 and #53 plow need a ad-boy too. lol
