beet planter

The back of my Case plow book mentions Case made a beet planter. Has anyone seen one? Have one? I would be interested to see a picture of one. I am planting many rows of garden beets. It would be overkill to have one, but it is worth thinking about.
 
And I am talking 1950's stuff. Not the new ones that can plant half a field in one pass.
 
The K-160 JI Case planter unit manual has a rate chart for planting beets. The picture shows a mounted Case planter with K-160 units...

This Case Lister planter uses the same plates as the K-160 units. Case plates were cast iron but Lincoln=Ag has plastic plates. This planter came from western Nebraska.

Here is a K160 my Dad ordered from the Case Company right after they shut down all machinery except tractors(sad day) I still haven't gotten it home yet

That was the one I was interested in seeing. Thanks for posting. Looks like it would be a handy unit.
 
Got one like it with dry fertilizer on it Dan. TC-68 was the number of the planter with K-160 units.TC-68 planter was 6 or 8 row.Bought mine from left over inventory from Hurkes Imp. Watertown SD. Also got some parts from Tri State Imp. in Sioux Falls SD.
 
Really Steve, hope you post it, ours had dry fertilizer on it too, thou we took the units off and stored them away ( eventually without my knowledge they were thrown out years later.
So my planter above is a TC-68?
So you bought yours as a carryover from Hurkes? What year?
 
Pictures would not help much till spring as we have snow.Yes it is a TC-68....have lit. here showing the planter. Must have been bought in the mid to late 70s. Still have new pieces that were not used.
