Farming w/ a 1950 SA

[BullDAWG]

Hi ya'll, I'm new to here but not to Farmalls or to farming. I just wanted to say hi and that I know a decent amount about old equipment and keeping em running. As soon as I figure out how to post pictures I'll show my crops, my 1950 SA, A-295 2 bottom slat wing 2 bottom plow, and my 1950 cub.

I also built a 2" toolbar that mounted to the 144 rear cultavator bar and will post a topic on it soon (again need to get pics working LOL) but plans for it include putting 2 middle busters on it to make raised beds and some subsoilers. Might be good topic for those that use farmalls to actually FARM

I’d love to see pictures of the rear toolbar setup as I have a plan to use my 140s to try to grow either sunflowers / or melons.

I wouldn’t call it farming, but I use my 140 to cultivate my half acre garden. I have a two bottom plow and disc on a fast hitch that work quite nicely. If it didn’t seem like such a pain to mount and unmount cultivators I would pick up a set of those too

I have a A-295 2 bottom plow (connects to draw bar) and takes 30 minutes to remove and put on 144 cultavators. Not hard, n with fast hitch yours should be easier.

PS will post pics of toolbar in a new thread, but trying to work some bugs out atm, the 144 has trip springs so down pressure isn't sufficient to go deep w/ subsoiler.
