Pingu Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Erm at Bell farm just off main road between chipenham and devizes was were second picture and first picture was taken at bowood estates i think that wqas what it was called In the end we got close to 170 acres ploughed with the tractors being NH TM 140 on 4 furrow dowdeswell delta furrow plough Claas 617 on rabe 4 furrow JD 6220 and 3 dowdeswell Valtra T150 on 5 furrow KV plough that was soon changed over to the 4 furrow dowdeswell as the KV was playing about we could very rarely get it to match up on runs and no one knew why, the turnover was very picky at when it would actually plough I had to change the plough on the valtra over at 11pm at night which meant going down Naish hill at 54K glad there was nobody about :D and was on it in the end till 4am setting it all up as skimmers were all over place and in end were raised quite alot as they would just turn no mater how tight they were. ALl i was thinkin to myself at 3 in the mornin normaly i would be in bed but no im setting a plough up :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
