    Ledger plate sharpening?

    Hi all I have an old John Deere no 5 sickle bar that I think needs some repairs. I believe the ledger plates on the guards are worn. I see some sources saying you can sharpen them with a bench grinder or flap disc, others say you cant at all. I have the ones with the serrated edges. What’s the...

    NOS New Idea tin and panels Unknown Parts?

    Hi all I got a hold of what I believe are parts to some new idea manure spreaders. There where a few pieces I am going to use on my own spreader, these others don't have any body part numbers find and I could identify. There is a long piece I presume is some kind of chain shield, another smaller...

    Towing an all crop to my home

    Hi all I found an older all crop I’d like to bring back to my house. An all crop 60 I believe. Roughly 45 minutes or 30 miles away. I would like to tow it with my truck, and I’d like to put an offset hitch on my truck for it. I have heard in other forums not to except 20mph because the wheel...

    Brush on Primer and Paint?

    Hi all, I am planning to turn an old manure spreader into a mobile chicken coop but the paint on it has lead. I am planning to strip it down and put on new lead free paint. The spreader is not really going to be seeing very much action, just being pulled different places for the chickens. Is...

    county line bush hog hangers?

    I will update with a photo tomorrow, I am currently out of town. They could be a modification but they look too good to be a modification, it almost looks stock. And it would probably be very difficult to make because they are 3/4 steel with large holes in them. I wouldn't have the equipment to...

Yesterday I was mowing and supringingly I didn't realize it for a while that one of the hangers on the back broke off somewhere in the field.

    lead free paints and primers?

    Hi all, I'm looking to convert and old derilect manure spreader I have into a mobile chicken coop, the chains, sprockets, and all the spreading equipment is too far gone.

    Can I harvest three fruits at once?

    Hi all, Rookie farmer here, I have a lot of chickens and am hoping to get the cost of feed down by not buying any but growing some myself. My chickens are free range but still get fed feed so I assume I don't have to give them anything abundant with nutrients and stuff since they get most of...

    What machinery uses #67 Chain

    Hi all bit of an odd request I know, The apron chains on my new idea 12a spreader are worn. They use #67 chain and instead of buying an entire new roll for more than what the machine is worth, I was wondering if there's a chance I could just salvage some off another machine. I looked in my area...

    What is this metal sided new idea spreader?

    Thats what stumped me, because the paint is chipped in multiple places, but in one such place, you can clearly see NEW and then what seems to be a capital I written next to it but the paint chips off right there.

    What is this metal sided new idea spreader?

    This new idea spreader has been in my family for quite sometime but has nos been abandoned. No one seems to know the exact model but it's a new idea. One thing that's stumped me is that it's metal sided, not wooden like most of them. Anyone have any clues what the model might be?
