Tim: Surprise, my disk is not a 39, but rather a 25 with serial number 272 016974. The 9 could be questionable as tag is damaged a bit right by that number. My disk is 3 point hitch with curvred tubular frame going to outer gang bearings, It has the two levers, one on each side of top link hook up for adjusting angle of gangs. It has 24 - 18" blades, making it roughly 6.5'. Notched blades on front and plain on rear. All blades and bearing are in excellent condition, and to think, all I had to do was match scrap man's price. Disk was parked in 3 feet of weeds along a hedge row, so not much paint left. My disk also has greasable cap type bearings, not sure whether those are steel or wood. I'm wondering if yours is newer version with sealed bearings, or maybe completely different. As I said before, I know very little about these small disks. I know the one I used about 10 years ago was very effective. This model 25 I have is also very effective. Not much problem to get either one cutting axle deep. I will have a photo of mine scanned and in my file by Tues., I will send you a photo. I'd like to know the same about yours and a photo if you have one. My e mail is open, I didn't notice yours. How are you folks on the east coast doing? It's 35 degrees here this afternoon, but humidity is down around 40% making it quite pleasant. These Upper Canadians think they're hard done by if humidity reaches 65% for more than a day. I just laugh and tell them they don't know what high humidity is. I'll suffer SW Ontario 35 degrees at 40% humidity anyday compared to Maritime 28 degrees at 90% humidity.
