No. 12 Rotary hoe attachment

[CapeCodCubs]

Hello all,
Was wondering if anyone has a video or pictures of the belly mounted No 12 rotary hoe? I just bought one from site sponsor JP Tractor and excited to try it next summer.

Will get some pictures up soon!

Thanks

Looks like you'll be "The Man" if you post up some pics and video of it in action!

Like it is barely off the ground in the full up position!

There’s a YouTube video of a guy cutivating with a very similar setup on a older Allis chalmbers if I remember right.

I don’t think it’s a older allis though. They still make and use rotary hoes on big farms also.

Here’s the one I was thinking of. It’s sitting under a offset Kubota. https://youtu.be/VRf0QXhj7CA

Seems to me the rotary hoe is running a little on the heavy side. May just be the way it looks in the video.

The thing under the Kubota looks like a basket weeder (runs between the rows).

By the looks of it, it probably would not be hard to make

I wonder if anyone has the pull behind weeder mulcher shown in the 144 cultivator manual? I assume it does the same thing, just using spring teeth vs a rotary. Wonder which works better? I assume the rotary hoe came later as it appears smaller, cheaper to manufacture, and easier to install/remove.

Rotary hoes were used to break the crust as well as remove weeds! i can remember pulling a 4 row in road gear behind an M! Would like to find one section of one to pull behind the cub - could probably pull it in 3rd gear easily unless you added a concrete block for weight
which many farmers did!). Fab a drawbar hitch and pick it up w/a chain!

I had one and sold it to a collector out here. He has 2.

It was yard art in Connecticut and the seller had absolutely no idea what it was other than something farm related.

I had no use for it. I will use the rotary hoe though on corn next year.
