My grandpa made a snap coupler brush hog from a old 3 point mower, but I don't have any pictures handy. ------------- 1938 B, 1945 B, 1941 IB, 1949 C, 2 1938 WCs, 3 1950 WDs, 1951 WD, 2 1955 WD45, 1957 D-14 |

I mounted a SC hitch from a junk 4 row planter on a heavy 3 point blade and used it for years. It made a good snow blade. I don't have pics either.

I modified an old 22" breaking plow that the wheel trip mechanism was beyond repair to into a snap couple plow. It took several trips to "adjust" to turn soil behind the D17D, but we got it dialed in now. My D17D pulls it just fine. Removed the wheels, trip mechanism, and front end off the plow and welded in the front part of a parts snap couple plow. Sorry, don't have any pics of it on the tractor; maybe this spring. Sure does a great job turning big weeds and willow (which are plentiful in old ground around here). It will dig down 10-18 inches so the TB system is a real asset to keep it from going too deep. I found that 12" cut does well in breaking up the roots and rolling over a nice furrow.

| We mounted a fertilizer spreader on a cultivator. Used it like once and now it sits behind the shed. Would probly rather just have the cultivator now. |

Dad made a single spear big round bale mover out of an old 50 series plow frame. And I bought a 2 fork homemade SC big bale mover from Don(MO). Dad too made a 2 row potato digger out of old curved plow frames. I remember having to stand on it as a kid to add weight to dig the potatoes up. We also used our oxnard scoop frame as a make-shift 3 point adapter to use the 7 foot snow blower on the D17 until I made a home made 3 point conversion in shop class in high school. Mike

I cobbled up an sc boompole from a 3pt one. Not being into welding, I had to bend and drill flat iron stock, using a sc backblade to get the geometry right. It lifts about 725 lbs.   |

| Not snap coupler, but I adapted my IH 100 mower from IH fast hitch to fit the rear lift arms of a AC. |

Mike this is the only pic I have of the bale fork. I got it from a old guy in North MO.
