How much has come out ? Ive no idea how much soil was excavated but they have been going non stop for about a week I think. They have finished all the ground works now, just waiting for the metal work to be put together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you can lock the door in the tipped position for when its lowered so there is no door on it for what ever reason you can think off This why its called the NC Magic door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hody21 Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 Some more photos for you all. They are all taken in same field as the muck spreading photos as the field is being prepped for reseeding. Can I also apologise for some of the dodgy photos, my camera seems to be loosing its sharpness although its probably down to operator error Any way first up the Mf 5445 on the Lemken 3 furrow plough, not the biggest but it does the job. Dad had loads of excuses for this one but his efforts reminded me of a certain member on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hody21 Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 Thease photos were taken after lime was spread on the field, I wasn't able to take photos but it was done with a large NewHolland and KRM Spreader according to dad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 blimey some of the first pics of 'after the lime' almost make it look like a hard frosty wintyers morning , & the 390 rolling must be the only time the paintwork hasnt shone ! lovely pictures as always mate , but really think father needs a new plough, well an extra furrow at least !
