I've been cleaning out an old shed for a lady, mainly to get the 30' long 8" I beams used to build it for a shed of my own. As I cleared away over 10 years of briars and other growth I found several implements that she was nice enough to throw into the deal also. The 3 disc disc plow I know what is but I've got another item I'm not sure of. It's old enough that it has origional steel wheels, and by the name plate it was made by either Lakewood Construction Equipment Co. or Lakewood Engineering Co. (both names on the tag) out of Cleveland, Ohio. The equipment number looks like 31X2. It reminds me of a subsoiler but I've never seen one with as many shanks. This thing is roughly triangular in shape with a pull ring at the front going back to two wheels at the back spaced a little over 5 feet apart. The wheels both have levers to control the height of them inependantly to vary the depth of the shanks. There are five shanks total. Their in rows with 1 at the front, then about two feet back there are two about 2 feet apart, then another two feet back there are three more shanks spaced across about 4 feet. Dad grew up on a tobacco farm here in NC in the 50's and 60's and he said he'd never seen anything like it. If any of ya'll have any idea what this thing is please post and let me know what I've got. Whatever it's called I ought to be able to do some serious ground breaking with it behind our JD 440 crawler. Thanks for any input.

Field Modifications (Sins of the Farmer) - by Staff. Picture a new Chevrolet driving down the street without it's grill, right fender and trunk lid. Imagine a crude hole made in the hood to accommodate a new taller air cleaner, the fender wells cut away to make way for larger tires, and half of a sliding glass door used to replace the windshield. Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
