Jon,
That looks like a really nice unit.. IH planters aren't common in this area... seems like all the deer hunters use the 71 John Deeres.. but that seems to be the only thing that is plentiful and easy to find in the weeds! Dad built this really neat setup back in the late 60's from a small Cole intended for a David Bradley walk behind tractor.. I had just replaced the fertilizer hopper in this picture. Like you said.. dad grew up on the farm and wanted one that worked like the big boys! We have used it several times to replant one or two rows of soybeans in the field... works great even after 50 plus years.

Thanks Aaron!
Jay, that's a nice set up! I think you showed that pic one other time.... Maybe in the thread I had asking all those questions about the Brinly/Cole unit I have? Anyway... Yes, the 71Deere row unit is also a popular choice. I would have taken one of those had I found it. Deere did make a really good planter. Afterall, Kinze copied it for their first row unit! But.... I really wanted a red one, lol. I haven't done anything to the planter since my last post. The painted seed hoppers are almost dry. They still dented with a fingernail today, but just barely. Really, the biggest hold up is not having Argon for the welder. As soon as I get some more, I'll do some work on the hitch. I'm half tempted to just drag out the stick welder. I have plenty of rods. |

Uniform depth with Brinly
Jon, To get uniform depth with the Brinly you need to add a "knee" joint so the planter can follow the ground. The sleeve hitch mount will not do that. I use the Brinly on a green tractor with 3pt. The "knee" joint is between the toplink and the A frame. The planter is rigidly mounted to the A frame like it would be to your tractor. The "knee" joint allows the planter to rotate around the 3pt hitch pins and follow the ground. I have a picture around here somewhere. I know you have seen enough of my Cole 12MX behind my 332. You are going to have to eventually breakdown and buy a compact like I did to be able to cultivate crops later in their growth stage. My "family" garden is about 100' by 140'. Not a lot of "family" help though. It actually got down in the mid teens here last month. So, peaches should do well this year.

What kind of monitor will you be using? We have both the cyclometer and seedsense2
I would recommend a Trimble FM 750 or 1000. What we run now. It would give you so many more options with not just monitoring the planter, but section control, variable rate and auto steer are huge plus as well. Section control is a must

His book is really worth reading. There's a long chapter about the planter units and the legal battle that came about because of him building his own row units.

As far as breaking down and getting a compact.... not likely. I'll get a utility or a small farm tractor first I imagine. I really want an IH 656, or a 3000 Ford. I'd take either. MMMMMMMMM,,,,, peaches! Feel free to send me some! |

Not really sure the other stuff applies.... but it would be cool to make a 3 row folding planter for the 982. Quote:

JD didn't exactly copy them, but copied a feature or two that caused them to loose the lawsuit with Jon Kinzenbaw. I'm a book collector myself. My library includes Oliver, Farmall, Cub Cadet, old machinist/metalworking books, as well as a few other more minor topics.

For those who may not know, Kinzie started out as a little welding shop and grew to what it is today. They are still privately owned and from what I understand, they maintain more of a family atmosphere within the company. As someone who has been in manufacturing, I can really appreciate that. My last employer didn't give about their employees as long as we kept their profit in the millions each month.

Brinly Planter
I would agree that a 295 IH row unit would be much better than a Brinly, planter but I found this one in a dark corner of a local barn. It cost me a gallon of gas a 2 quarts of oil - I traded my time to get 3 pieces of garden equipment started in the spring for the planter. It was missing the drive chains and took some TLC, but I think it turned out respectable.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
