Stormin 4,458 #2 Posted November 14, 2016 Well done George. I notice the absence of a disc. Is the knife, for want of the correct name, better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 4,458 #4 Posted November 14, 2016 He came down to our ploughing match at Carlisle last March. It does do a good job. Home made plough as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Fife Plooman 632 #5 Posted November 14, 2016 Hi Norman We find disc is OK if straw is not too long. knife Coulter is OK but sometimes the straw hanks on it. the Scotch skimmer if set right makes its own little furrow and buries the trash and stubble ahead of the mouldboard Thanks for your comments new setting.mp4 Frae The Fife Plooman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
