Discing in California

37chief · Jun 15, 2015

I thought I would put up a picture of my AC Model M earning it's keep. This is a AC disc also. I like this field it's easy in, and out, and only a couple rocks. The tree is a California pepper. About every weekend they launch hot air balloons here. There is a bare spot to the right. Those things are huge. Stan

How many times a year would you run over this field ? Fire control , right .

37chief · Jun 15, 2015

Only one time a year for fire control is right. My Dad was the last person to farm this field, probably early 60's He planted Lima Beans. Dad didn't own it, he only rented it. Stan

Why not just mow it? Seems aweful slow to disc....

I try to talk the owner into it every year, He always wants it disced. Stan

I think it's around 35 hp. maybe a little less. It pulls the disc in 3 rd gear with no problem. Stan

Steve, I live about 30 miles north of San Diego, in Encinitas. Stan

If it were up to the owner they would let the land turn into a fire hazard. They would rather not spend the money. Stan

Small world. Last week I went to a car club meet in Red Bluff, visited cool places like Potters Welding near Orland. Then I drove my Dad back to his home in San Diego, and we took a ride on the antique steam yacht Medea. Our Graham car club meet for fall will be in the Fallbrook area of San Diego with a trip to the antique gas and sgeam engine museum

Meanwhile, I need to find a disc to drag over a 300 x 50 foot lot I will be renting for vehicle storage in Lodi, anyone here in the neighborhood?
