Great pictures!

 

Heard but don't know for sure, 1932 was the 1st year for rubber tires in the United States.

 

Brand and year of the steel wheeled tractor? Looks great!  :handgestures-thumbupright:

I got to drive a Farmall A about 6 miles once when my B-I-L bought it and didn't have a trailer.:lol: It was a blast! I did have a friend drive a Farmall OS4 orchard tractor about 30 miles to a steam show in pouring rain once! 797109581avatar.gif  3234056308avatar.gif

Just wondering Koen, what are you judged on at these matches?

i was judged on the following things

 

opening furrow

(staight, clean, flat and regular cuts)

 

uniformity

(straight, not to high, no visible green)

 

furrows

(straight, no handle, right depth)

 

turned over dirt

(same hight, same width, not laying on its side, nicely turned over

 

turned over dirt

(not to crumbly, nicely connecting)

 

covering vegitation

(all vegitation must be covered)

 

final furrow

(clean, not to deep and to narrow(1 shear width))

 

final furrow

(connecting to the rest of the furrows, one track)

 

dropping in and lifting out

(regularly on marking furrow, quick on plowing depth)

 

 

also here's a vid of me driving the W4 to pick up the horse
