That one was fun. Nice to see the work you did on the planter worked! I love how the bins bounce up and down, looking like the Whack-A-Mole game. And when you speed it up, they look like they're dancing to the music!

It was a long road but I’m glad that it finally paid off. I like watching it plant and the seed came up excellent so we’re on the right track.

hey Ross - the Oliver sounded good and the 5100 seemed to be working well also. Noticed you have the same soybean seed disks and I do - the ones with the holes in each cell that holds 2 seeds each. They also make a disk where each cell only holds 1 seed. Looks like a lot of the parts off of your 5100 would work on my 4 row 5100 and I'm sure you'd be willing to sell me parts off of yours if I needed them. LOL!!! There are some things you can't get any more - like the gauge wheel arms, etc. I bought some used ones because mine are getting worn.

@rosstheoliverman 2 жыл бұрын

I’ve been looking for spare parts. I may end up buying another whole planter just for that. After this year is done, I’m gonna take all the gauge wheel arms off and have the machines out to take those replaceable bushings. Then they really shouldn’t be anything that goes bad on them unless one breaks. I don’t think that I could get the population I want with the single seed disc. I had it set around 165,000

@pagrainfarmer 2 жыл бұрын

@@rosstheoliverman Well, one thing I noticed about those gauge wheel arms is that the holes in them where the gauge wheel bearing stem attaches gets worn a little big, then the wheel wobbles. I've been shimming them with really thin sheet metal, but I'm thinking of taking them to a local machine shop and having them weld the holes shut and then re-drill them to the right diameter to fit snug over those gauge wheel bearing stems. I bought 6 used arms online and the holes don't seem to be worn to bad, so at least I have some to work with over time.

I s this the 1655 your grandpa bought? Would it pull that disk/harrow you used before planting the soybeans?

@rosstheoliverman Жыл бұрын

The tractor to the planter is the 1855. If you’re talking about that disk I pulled with the 1755, it’s slightly too big for the 1655. It will pull up but it’s quite a load.
