ML, those seeders don't last 30 years unless you ease them down to the ground with the PTO. I busted the gear housing on mine by just letting it drop. The tractor repair place said a lot of people do that on their first one. Oh yeah, I did buy another one.

I use mine to spread wheat seed in the fall. I also load it with corn and salt the roads throughout my place during hunting season. The guy on the adjoining place doesn't like that idea.

BTW, buy a little bit bigger tractor than you think you will need. I can't believe I went for years without a front end loader. Of course a loader is pretty useless without 4wd. Box blades are handy as an extra pocket.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
