  1. It appears there are several names for this piece of equipment. I bought one of these off an old farmer and he called it a "jitterbug".  

    These are good versatile tools.  One good use for it is clawing out briars, honeysuckle, or poison oak, ivy or any vine type weed.  You have to be cautious with the Poison Oak and Ivy though especially if you are highly allergic which fortunately I am not.  

    You might think that the shanks would get clogged up when using it to clean up as mentioned above but, generally raising or backing up with the tool positioned correctly will clear it out. 

  2. seems the Disc harrow worked better? do you sell a ditch attachment not a trench attachment but a ditch attachment? For Drainage?

  3. I just purchased a WD45 Diesel that I'm eventually going to do a 3 pt hitch, add an auxiliary hydraulic system for a bucket, and power steering. I'm looking for a good plow for it for the garden as an alternative to a turning plow. I know, when new, it was billed as a 3 plow tractor. What do you recommend?

  4. I don't know if Pine Bluff is one thousand miles away from your store, but I sure would love to have one of those cultivator's since I have everything else I need.

  5. I've been using one of these and it is really effective. But if the soil is too compact, like in Summer time, nothing much will happen except that you clean the field of crop leftovers and dry weeds.
    You can also use it in another way: pull it up, go on reverse and then drop it on top of the bush. Then you drag the bush out. Brier is common here in Portugal, and it can invade a whole field. If you cut it in pieces, you are multiplying the number of plants since it can easily set new roots.

  6. those who feel the name of the equipment is wrong don't know farmers and different regions. I'm new to farming the hardest part was learning plow names. mold board plow my seed rep called it aka a bottom plow. seen it called both. anyway this is a great piece of quality American equipment. it on my tractor worked it yesterday and will be later today. I use it to open new feilds. so it's goes through old hay feilds and all kind of small brush and tree stumps. I wish I could post my video ripping out virgin land with it. mine is the 5 shank and I'm pulling it with deere 3038e. not a bad plow at all. money well spent.

  7. Nice introduction. are you a manufacture factory or agency? we are Chinese supplier. +8618008003163

  8. Yeah that thing isn't all that new . When I was growing up, we used one to get the tobacco Fields ready. plow the fields in the fall let them sit all winter, then use that in the spring to get them ready again. Before you run the disk across it. We call him a Tillis tool. That was the name they gave them back then . The gentleman I work for got one from the Ford tractor dealership. It was made by Ford. And no I do not think that's a chisel plow.

  9. Ok iv got a cultivator frame now so how do I get the arms and shanks for the same size you have here? Looking to build one for a smaller tractor. Please respond back with information.

  10. I like that thing. I was going to make a spike tooth harrow but if I can find one of those I will get it. I want to reseed my pasture fields and that looks like the ticket to break up ground just enough.

  11. You mention taking out the shanks on the outside, but wouldn't that not cover the tracks? Would it be better to take out a middle shank?

  12. For our sin, breaking God’s law, we are punished by burning in Hell for eternity, a place with no hope for our salvation. But God loved you, along with everyone else, so much and with all his heart that he gave his only Son, Jesus Christ, to this cursed world to be crucified on the cross. Now whosoever accepts Jesus Christ, God’s Son, as their Lord and Savior and believes he rose from the dead the third day will be saved from eternal damnation in Hell and live in Heaven in paradise with him forever. Repent of your sins and accept the Lord Jesus Christ or face God’s righteous judgment.

  13. What size would you recommend for a 60HP tractor? It has a 6.5ft wheel spacing on back. Would this work for category 2 if the pins were changed out?
