I'm getting anxious for spring to start around here so I thought I would share with some of you pictures I took last year. We farm with Ford tractors. Dad bought the 5000 and TW-10 brand new in 1975 and 1980. Last year we added a 1977 9700 to pick up the heavy work from the TW-10.

Here's the 9700 before we put the duals on

My brother ran the 9700 most of the time with the field cultivator. It is nice to have a little more power on it.

Here's the 9700 and TW-10 waiting to go to work.

I ran the TW-10 for wheat planting and some soybeans. Some of our beans are conventinally planted with the drill and some we no-till with our corn planter. I did the beans with the drill.

I hoped you enjoyed some shots from 2008 and I will be providing more of the 9700 and TW-10 in action in 2009.

I think it is a TW-35. I think he has a TW-10 and Tw-20.

This is a bad memory of 2008. This was the last day I was chisel plowing soybean ground. It kept snowing and it kept getting colder and I think it got below zero the next morning. We had to wait till the ground was froze enough to carry the tractor.

Nice going huh?

lady: Hello! I don't know if anyone would be able to help me out or not, but I am looking for a John Deere 1/64 Scale 714 Chisel Plow 15 Shank. We are Hog Farmers, and this fall was our middle son's 1st Year chisel plowing with that particular implement! Dec 8, 2016 8:25:20 GMT -5

mmccann: I’m looking for a small (5-6 inches long) “matchbox” size-ish welder truck painted red. My wife’s father died last year and his occupation was welder. He always drove red trucks. Could you make one and have it to be by Christmas? Nov 24, 2018 12:52:05 GMT -5
