Railroad Rail Towed Behind Field Disk
I tow a piece of railroad rail behind my field disk to break up clods and smooth the ground. I had to build a frame to support the rail be-hind the disk. The rail is suspended on two chains that can be adjusted for height. Raises and lowers with the disk. Works great.I have a Deere 630 wide front tractor with a high lift loader for stacking hay. It's difficult to put on and off. I built a hoist out of heavy-walled 2-in. pipe that makes it easy. The loader hangs from the hoist until needed again. The A-frames can be taken down and moved in three pieces if necessary. (Joe. C. Drake, Encamptment, Wyo.)
