Re: Custom Fertilizer Spreader
I carried the openers and these 2 rods over to get powdercoated last week, picked them up this morning.

Got the spreader back together. It's done, now I have to figure out what to do with it.

Re: Custom Fertilizer Spreader
I messed up. Haven't even used it yet and broke it, lol. I took it home and hooked it to the tractor last week. Had it all the way down and hooked the PTO shaft up. Cole and I were out the other day and I cranked the tractor and turned it on, it was quiet and spun like it should. Saturday I had a man coming to buy something and I needed the tractor. The spreader was still hooked up and all the way down, I reached over and lifted the lift and heard a POP. It was to late. Broke the gearbox. I assumed the PTO shaft was the correct length, my mistake and know I shouldn't assume. The PTO shaft is to long and as I raised the spreader the shaft got shorter until it bottomed out and broke the gearbox. Luckily we have a spool gun here at work and I welded the cast aluminum back together and put a couple braces on it. It's ugly but should work. Learned my lesson on PTO shafts Saturday, the hard way.
