Disc Harrow Identification

[Axtell]

Was wondering if anyone could help IDing this disc harrow. I know we've had it since the early 80s and bought used but would like know the manufacturer and possibly close to a model. The best I can see from a tag it is "something" Plow Co. My google searches return Athens Plow Company.

Well for some reason my pictures are not uploading

The site seems to be experiencing technical difficulties. Not sure when it will be fixed.

Athens is still in business. Email them a pic & see what they say.

Thanks Mike. I did call them to try and find a cover disk but the number I gave them off the disc did not show up in their system. I asked them if I could email them pictures of it to possibly identify the model and they declined stating they only needed the disc measurements. I provided those and they did not have a match of the measurements. I will send them an email this time with the goal of identification rather than disc replacement. See pictures are still not uploading this morning....

I didn't think about trying to post them via iCloud link.

It possibly could be an Athens Plow Co. disk harrow.

Thanks Jim. That is my guess. They did quickly respond to my email stating; "Doesn’t appear to be one of ours. Amco, Rome, & Taylor Way were painting yellow." Not sure where they saw yellow in the pictures other in the trim on the label that surrounds "something" Plow Co with a green background, but I will check them out.

Could be King Plow Company out of Atlanta. Went out of business in 1986. No successor.

You know, Agri-Supply sells a furrow cover axle extension that looks a lot like what's on that disc. I can't link them here but if you google them and look through their aftermarket tillage parts you might find a disc blade.

Thanks. I didn't think about that. I think I narrowed down the manufacturer, though. I just happened to see a video of someone restoring a 3pt disc harrow. In the video I noticed what looks like the same manufacture label. In it's entirety it is King Plow Company from the Atlanta area. It is my understanding that Rome Plow Company merged with King back in the mid 80s. This lines up with one of the manufacturers the Athens rep suggested.
