Got a new drill.View attachment 1026035View attachment 1026036View attachment 1026037

Was the drill dearer than the combine?

No I got it and a six row interrow rotavator for the same money as the combine. The drill is a Gaspardo made in Turkey and as we don't go down any roads it doesn't need any folding mechanisms which would nearly double the price. It's the third I've had and this time I pushed the boat out with a monitor and row cleaners.

A Reiver I think.

I’m pretty sure Reiver’s were all 3 axle rigids. My old man’s was and the Clydesdale was the 2 axle version.

I'm not a fan of Claas tractors, but that definitely looks better than the hideous metallic green Claas which was on the Sellar's stand at the Spring show.

What do you do with the salt?

 

[beltbreaker]

You not doing a 2 in 2 out this time?

 

[Sandy]

What do you do with the salt?

He likes his chips!

 

[David.]

I've heard of it being spread on grass, to fool the grass into thinking it has had a dose of much more expensive potash?

Just done our 3rd wheel change since getting ours, like everything there is a knack I advise your smoothest concrete and a long tyre lever to spin the wheel. Definitely a lot easier and safer than wrestling with the buggers, particularly the row crops.

I can often change wheels 2-3 times a week and wouldn’t dream of being without it. Mine was courtesy of @REStracTORATION

Thanks, this is a sealey W1200T. Seems plenty strong enough.

Since getting our first tractor with 42 wheels I thought it necessary, they are just brutes compared to a 38
