Light Land Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 A model idea..... Why not make the GRIMME side slew draw bar kit for the 3pt linkage so that you can pull a 4 row planter on de-stoned beds with out runing over and soft soil.theres alot of siku 4 row planters getting about ppls places they might be worth making there only a >T< shaped bit of steel upside down realy with a ram to push the palnter over one way simple but handy even the real thing has stuff all detail on it.

Gav836 Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 Gandy boxes on silage harvesters are for sugar application What would you use them for on a potato planter though? The only thing I can think of seeing on them is the Horstine Farmery type pesticide applicators \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
