Our old one is the one in the used section of Weavings website. Had it since 2012 and just changed it for a 6 m one behind a power harrow. Has always been our 3rd line drill when the Rapid or standard Weaving wouldn't go so has always been used in a plough and drill situation so hasn't been used with any trash on top really. It only has 3 rows of coulters rather than 4 on the conventional Weaving drills. We've always been able to get a crop in with it even if wet and into January/February for wheat. Sometimes doesn't look pretty but always grows. It puts the seed in fairly identical to the standard Weaving drills so seed placement isn't up to Rapid standards but that's a given. Only real issues we have is we never get on with Weaving mount the depth wheels. They put them within the frame so they'll always be close to one tine arm/coulter. When it's wet it always bungs up with mud between this wheel and the tine arm so we get some brackets off Weaving and move the depth wheels to the rear within the following harrow.
