Scrapheap challenge today......12 row stanhay precision air drill, fixed beam with end tow kit, its too much of a ball ache putting the wheels and the drawbar on and off between fields

enter a 12 row rear mounted folding stanhay hoe from the local machinery dealer. Stripped both down, altered brackets to suit, fitted the 4 row precision units onto the folding beam, 4 underneath, 4 up each side

tommorrows task it to fit the fan housing brackets, and the parking stands, route all the pipes, fit rubber toggle latches to all the lids, and then a make some wheelmark eradicators out of the old hoe units, to run behind the drill wheels
