We want to thank all who made it to the plow day at my place. I didn't get a hard count but looks like we had around 25 make it and had 9 or 10 tractors get to play in the dirt. I know I had a ball plowing and talking to all you guys and gals. You guys did a grate job on the little fields I had for you to plow and it got a little hard to plow with the number of tractors per acre. Here's a slide show of the day if I do this right.Don,Gale and Dad.

| Wouldn't it be neat if the guy with the "baby" WC could adapt a garden tractor plow (or 2) to his tractor so he could join right in? |

| Thanks again for invite, I had a lot of fun, I can tell because I barely made it to the medicine cabinet to get drugs. Good to meet more people on the forum, and sorry if I didn't get to meet everyone, had my hands full once repairs to the plow were made. Good Food, good times with good people. |

Don,
Thanks for the invitation to the plow day and getting it all organized. Thanks for the use of your disc and plow. Thanks to Gale and the other ladies for cooking and serving the great food. It was good to talk to your Dad again. It looks like he really enjoyed giving the rides in his Model T. ------------- Missouri Allis Chalmers Club Member; 1954 WD45 (NF), 611LTD & 811GT Lawn Tractors |

| Don, sorry I could not make it. looks like you had a good day and turn out. I had fun trying to keep from cracking 10.3 beans. Tell your Dad I'll bring some steaks and he can make another pie a little later. Steve |

I have the guy's phone # if you'd like to get more info about the little WC he built.
Johan, The hole day was grate, Good people, good food, good weather And got to plow some too.
Dad have a ball all day driving his T-T around the farm with passengers on board.
I might know the next plow day date (a little bird told me) lol
Steve I hope you got your beans in the bin OK and Dad said he will trade pie for steaks. all day long.lol
I'm looking in to the idea of having a plow day next fall too, called back by popular demand. lmao.
Mike I reset that 73 plow today and plowed two rounds with it, She plows good now.
And to the guys that say a # 53 will not plow hard dry ground just ask Rick M. I went over to where he was plowing with a tape can you say 10" deep! LOL

Gale was standing in the back of her truck and the truck was setting on top of a eight foot high Levey it made a nice place to take pictures from. ------------- 3 WD45's with power steering,G,D15 fork lift,D19, W-Speed Patrol, "A" Gleaner with a 330 corn head,"66" combine,roto-baler, and lots of Snap Coupler implements to make them work for their keep. |

| I was following Rick M. with that deep plow. I will bet the paint and rust is wore off of the bottoms of those beams. That was the deepest plowing I have ever seen. |

Dave, I can't take credit for how Don's plow was set since I just hooked up to it and started to plow. Don had the plow adjusted just right and my Traction Booster was working great. It shows how much the TB does since I only have 13.6 tires and no fluid in them.
