Looks like you just bought NEW tractor and loader combos. 200's aren't for everybody, just the sexy people.

Haven't seen a plantin guide like ya got on the massey for a long time. We had one on our D17. Had trouble with the markers on the planter so we stuck one on the front of the 17 and kept on plantin.

A new invention for a marker system
It should have a patent. It works great

I'm sure I could find a way to bend it all to hell in a fence row or tree or something.

Great pictures but the marker system isn't new, used one like that 45 years ago.

We custom No Tilled with the pipes, and had chains hanging down from the ends. The chains were roughly 6 " from the ground and if you were any good at driving with the rows the chains would swing forward and backward in between the combined wheat rows and never "HIT". Dad drilled holes in each set of pipes so that they were adjustable for planting corn or beans. I believe that we used 16 penny nails to hold them to the needed spacing.
