the bairn 11 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Very smart Tractor ? , plough is a cracker ? not so sure about the 2 coulter bars on the press arms any reason why they were put on instead of presses or packers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhendry Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 their clay slicers for use on heavy duty land-that's what I used down in Norfolk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the bairn 11 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 OK,these slicers in real life do they sit straight down into the ground or are they angled, think I have once seen a set working but can't remember how they sat into the ground.Very smart model all the same is it a DT job?

Gav836 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 i've never deen the furrow cracker like that, i only know of the Claydon knife type one that runs parallel to the plough beam. Very good plough conversion none the less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the bairn 11 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 DT? It's my own conversion...... OOOPS Looks just like the one DT makes (that is a complement by the way ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the bairn 11 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 The Claydon thats the one I saw on a Dowdsewell,were they not hellish for choking the plough in chopped stubble or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 never known anyone locally here to have a problem with one, seems like a very good tool to me from what i've heard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhendry Posted December 9, 2005 Author Share Posted December 9, 2005 the clay slicers help to break up the clay ready for power harroing and drilling they usually sit level in the ground. A press would just block something rotten in clay!DT-is he Dave towse from Towse trading?Sorry for sounding an idiot I'm new on the converting scene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 you'd be right there- DT=Dave Towse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Nice work there Rob, how have you joined up the frames?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhendry Posted December 10, 2005 Author Share Posted December 10, 2005 took me about a days work. The frames are joined by metal rods (not brass) as this provides a stronger end result just incase you have to post or pack the item Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted December 11, 2005 Share Posted December 11, 2005 Now that is seriously gonna cover your lounge in no time!! What a gem, cracking bit of handy work there. I'd like a nice 6 or 7 for the 7920 with swinging packers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robhendry Posted December 11, 2005 Author Share Posted December 11, 2005 I did some 9 and 14 for a fellow collector for Christmas, been really busy. never done one with packers before-but this is my first 15 furrow, so I'd give anything a try! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
