Three years of plow a round or two then scrape. I think I might finally get it to scour. My #2 3-16 plow that I got from a friend. Used to belong to his grandfather. Doesn't help that our ground is bottom ground and mostly black muck. Had about 1/4" rain on Thursday, so a little damp.    ------------- Looking at the past to see the future. '53 WD, '53 WD45, WD snap coupler field cultivator, #53 plow,'53 HD5B dozer Duct tape.... Can't fix stupidity. But will muffle the sound of it! |

Awesome ‼️ Some day I hope to do some serious plowing with my six bottom semi mounted plow, behind either my 8070 or my 7580. Did play around with it a little couple years ago. Must have been some hard ground; brought the front end of my FWA 8070 right off the ground, and it has a full rack of weights on it. Darrel |

I cheated a little bit taking the picture. Got to just the right angle so the sun hit it just right. ------------- Looking at the past to see the future. '53 WD, '53 WD45, WD snap coupler field cultivator, #53 plow,'53 HD5B dozer Duct tape.... Can't fix stupidity. But will muffle the sound of it! |
