My dad and I did a little bit of fieldwork monday evening before it went to dark. Because on my XT the lights don't work it was fun for about half an hour.
   My dad could work day and night on the D17

@Jim, that's a pull-type chiselplow behind the D17.
@Allis dave, the field is about 10hectare, or about 25acre. ------------- ---> Better by Design <--- Johan Straver, Almkerk/ Netherlands Allis-Chalmers 190XT Ser.III #26829XTD |

Sure is flat in the Netherlands! My goodness. That is a neat chisel plow behind the D17...I have not seen one like that before. Thanks for sharing the photos ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |
