TS, I don't think anybody asked how much, they asked how soon !!! Or, just put them up for bid!

Like they say if you have to ask how much then you can't afford it!

See this is where the steel for legs came from-5 x 5 x 3/8" frame for JD 3100.

Heck now I don’t know which I want more….the stand or the plow!

Those type plows have been scrapped around by the--------everything is no till.

Ok-I think I rounded up enough used steel and the three final drives, brought one back with
me today. So plan is figure all the pieces get all cut/machined so all three can be built at the
same time.

6 bottom plow? Going to take more than a 2 wheel drive tractor if you put it in the ground. There are still lots of plows around here in the weeds, not worth the trouble to haul them to the scrap yard.

And an 8 bottom in the background. Hook them together and go to plowing!

Somehow I don't think you three will like the price-will know better tomorrow but
even with used steel, and all other parts, some new plus some machine work I'm guessing ---
$2,500 to 2,700, will have price on used steel friday.

I think I'm in, especially if I can get an adapter plate for a B model. I don't believe I would likely be able to find another that would rotato like that for that price.

Besides, a road trip might be in order and it would be a pleasure to meet you!

That would be extra because each bracket is for a particular block. I will have to see if I can find
a bare B model block to build one. Most of it is time figuring mounting points and getting drilled
straight, not that much material involved really.

That’s not bad at all.

I'll have my neighbor do it with his cnc machine, just need to come up with a pattern for it.

Do you typically strip the turbo and oil cooler off, or take the injection pump off?

Edit to add: All that will be coming off, I just didn't know if it matters which side to attach to.

Normally the mount is installed on right side of block, It's always better to install Inj Pump
and time it on the stand.

Steel and all parts including labor come in at too high of level to make these cost effective plus
gas/shipping which is all part of it. So I'm abandoning the project, sorry boys this grumpy old
f@ck has other things to do, I'll gladly find plenty of other things to occupy my time.
End of thread and allot of other things.
