 Topic: what was the purpose of this one
Posted: 06 Feb 2017 at 3:22pm |
 the little disk plow on the bottom right what was its job was this more of a finish tool or could you start with it in the field?? i hooked it to a 45 once to just move it but it seemed like it was for a smaller tractor like a CA..

That looks like a bog harrow. I've never seen one in person, but I think they were for sticky ground and clay. Popular in places like Louisiana I think I've heard.

That's a one way, used in the midwest, as a primary tillage tool, for prepping arid wheatlands for seeding. Also great for moving gravel off a shoulder of a dirt road, prior to grading the road. The way to tell the difference between a one way, and a disk plow, is that a one-way has a common axle, while a DP has independent bearings, on each disc, and are usually spaced further apart...
