seed plates

I m looking for pumpkin seed plates, or corn & beans plates. The center hole is 1 5/16 and the outside dia. is 7 3/4. They are about 5/16 thick, plastic. If I can t find pumpkin plates, I thought I could revamp corn or beans plates, to accept pumpkin seeds. any ideas? Thanks , Alan
 
I took a set of B6-16 plates for a 494 JD planter and enlarged four holes evenly spaced with a die grinder then pluged the rest of the holes with silicone and DUCT TAPE.The planter is set on 30" rows. I leave it set permantly on 37,510 pop.with 24 cell plates.When replaced with 16 cell plates it drops pop. to 25,140 divide by 4 and you have a pop. of 6295.I use planter for sweet corn,sunflowers,indian corn,pumpkins,it hase worked great the past 3 years
 
can we talk by phone? thanks ,Alan

The plates I have are marked as:

Lustran: C-6 And there is 16 slots around outer

edge for seed distribution. I m assuming what you call cells, I m calling slots?? I have only the two plates. So, I m looking for extra plates, so I don t ruin the ones I have.
 
My post was confusing the ones I made was for pumpkins only.I dont know much about IH planters.I"ll check with my in law.Yes,what I call cells is the same as spaces.24cell will plant higher population.Se what plates JLE has,may have what you need.
