[QUOTE="Beefsmith, post: 6638203, member: 133822"] We all know the marketing spiel they come out with is extremely questionable so let’s not let this thread descend into bashing as there’s the other one for that. Now I’ve seen one in the flesh I kind of see the point of it and how it works. It’s very heath robinson like the original claydon drill but I think the leg design is actually quite clever. Depth control isn’t great and seed depth is variable but then that’s no different to any tine based machine really. Certainly if you lift the back wheels clear like they advocate in poor conditions you’ve got next to no depth control. There’s no contour following as such so I doubt it would be very good on hilly ground. I think it would benefit from a rear roller option just to seal things a bit better. But the fact it can be used as a seedbed chitting tool and then a drill is why it’s of interest to us. What do others think? [/QUOTE]
