[QUOTE="dano, post: 7713613, member: 8612"] Gday All, We love seeing what other people are building and putting together so I thought I'd share one of our most recent builds for other like minded people and return the favour! Background story; We have been using a 3m disc box seeder for years, we needed to improve efficiency in this part of our business and what we found we required was, - larger capacity seed and fert bins - wider working width (without compromising access to clients farms etc) - disc system that enabled us to change seeding depth quuckly and easily What we did; - found an 8m bar that had a few well worn disc units that we liked - found another lot of secondhand disc units and rebuilt what we needed to give us 20x units on 8 and bit inch spacing - took to the 8m bar with the grinders and welder to make a 4m bar - purchased another Flexicoil aircart which is the exact same as what we use on our 10.5m tyne seeder - a bit of paint and an airkit and we were off working. We have had great results with this setup and are very pleased with our efforts. We have plenty more pics and vids of our gear working on Facebook and Instagram, checkout McGrath Contracting if you like! Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
