McCormick International Steerable Plows 

They are a thing of beauty!

Glad you enjoyed!!

Yeah, that's a lot of plow on there. Those shiny 560s are giving me the urge to paint mine. Might have to be a winter thing.

They gave it their best polish. Glad you enjoyed!!

I've seen few tractors pulling their rated bottoms. It looked like they were in potting soil. Otherwise, no it's not common.

The rule of thumb is half the cutting width was your depth. 14 inch bottoms were still an option back then , at least for Oliver. So a 6 -14s plow was cutting an 84" swath, and 5-16s was cutting 80", but that extra inch of depth on the 16s would make it the harder pulling plow.

@@ThatOliverGuyChris That might be why the previous owner of my 540 used 14" bottoms. It was on a potato farm & they plowed deep.

That would be neat! Do they have a Fast Hitch on the Farmalls in FS?

@@ikonseesmrno7300 I don’t think they do. Unless I haven’t found it yet. I just got a PC so I’m still looking for good American and Canadian mods (cochshutt and farmall) but a base game three point linkage should work with the plow if there isn’t a fast hitch

Glad you enjoyed! (ding!!)

For the most part. Kind of doubt that 806 was pulling 6x16". I have a 540 with 14's & it's all the 806 can do to keep it moving through clay at times, plowing 5" - 6"

As the video itself states, there is less weight on the tractors' rear wheels with this type of plough. The fact that it's semi mounted also means that wieght transfer does not happen, as with a fully mounted plough, which is continually trying to rotate about the lower hitch points, whilst the top of the 'A' frame transfers weight to the tractors' rear wheels. Semi mounted ploughs only achieve a limited amount of wieght transfer to the tractor, as the lower links are attached below the centre line of the drive axle, but the force is more longtitudinal and rearward in nature, rather than the greater vertical distance of the top hitch point on a fully mounted plough, which generates forward force, through the top link attachment.

I like 14 inch bottoms especially when we're plowing wheat stubble at Western Minnesota steam threshers reunion. Turns it over more abruptly

Clay plows hard, which is what we have at rollag. U Moline has all it wants with a 3 bottom IH 70

Also thanks for the channel recommended last night. They are onto something different for sure. My power supply is extremely simple. yet it takes a vast understanding and comprehension of many different functions. With a deeper understanding of Æther dynamics. I'm not sure if anyone is ready for this device. Is there another way to chat with you ?

The junkyard reference reminds me of the recent tornado damage out of Iowa, on the tractor forum. In the foreground is a crumpled mess of a '69 Camaro. Behind it is a Farmall H with what looks like a busted rear axle. Betcha that tractor will still start vs the Camaro that is totaled. Self sufficiency has been frowned on for a long time. Just coming to a head right now.

@@EnergyTRE Glad you enjoyed Aaron's channel! There is some extremely mind blowing stuff on there. Sounds like you may be on to something interesting too. I'll see if Ken will let us exchange emails through him tomorrow night, if that works.

Oh yeah.... the greatest change, from horse drawn equipment to tractor pulled, is that of the scenery. 😁

​@@ikonseesmrno7300, The scenery is different! And the odors there are, just emanate from different places. 😅
