I went up to the farm yesterday, and dropped the plows in to test the waters, so to say. The ground is better than a month ago, when I first tried to plow this field, and we are getting light rain today, and weather watchers are saying heavy down pours tomorrow. About Sat. I will start fall plowing again.
With my back the way it is now, I have been modifying the seat and armrests in the 931, so I tried what I had built so far. Still needs a bit of tweeking. I had all new cushions installed on my seat shells by Speer Cushion several years back. They did a wonderful job on them, but the bottom cushion was so thick and plush, that the arm rests would not raise up enough to give me support for my arms and the small of my back, so I am building extension brackets to give me the support for my arms and back higher up where I need it. The suspension was also rebuilt so it works properly. Today I also ordered a inexpensive rear view camera and monitor like I have in my 440 to put into the cab so I don't have to set twisted around in the seat, to see what the plow is doing. Hoping these changes will allow me to be comfortable operating the tractor for 4-6 hrs. a day. Yea, I know real farmers drive tractors for 10-14 hrs./day, but I am volunteering my time and equipment to help out, so my only chore is to get the ground plowed. About 230A. The farm pays maintenance and fuel cost This was second bout yesterday. The plow is covering trash much better than a month ago when I tried plowing here, and it was so dry. I am also back up in 4th gear where the plow lays nice smooth furrows. Loren

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Profile: Ferguson TO-20 - by Staff. When the infamous "Handshake Agreement" between Henry Ford and Harry Ferguson fell by the wayside (that's a story in itself), Harry Ferguson quickly set up manufacturing plants for a United States version of his English TE-20. The TO-20 was relatively the same as the TE-20 except utilized some different casting materials and had a US-style electrical system. The TO-20 was a dead ringer for the Ford 9N and 2N models and they say that Ferguson did this on purpose when the Handshake Agreement wen
