Aye-up,
I managed to buy back a plough my Dad used to own. It’s a KV LA8NR 3 furrow reversible.
It’s only maybe 40 years old but has spent over 20 years sitting outside. You can imagine the state of the mouldboards. Anything I try and buy is too long. The Spaldings chap said he spoke to KV direct but they don’t supply that type any more.
We have lightly sandblast them but there are still lots of deep pits. There’s no way they will scour, especially as coarse abrasive sands are in short supply round here.
Anything that can be done? I’ve called a couple of metal polishers but they don’t seem interested.
Cheers, Pete.
