ACE Plough Bottoms

I base this on several items. If you look at plows here on YT, which are for the most part US plows, very rarely do you see ACE bottoms. I think the Americans used the IH General Purpose bottom. Remember also in the US the No. 8 plow was called Little Genius and it has diagnol cross members between the beams. Here in Canada there is no reference to the plows built at Hamilton being called Little Genius. They were just called a No. 8 tractor plow and they had perpendicular cross members that overlaped thus making the plow adjustable for width of cut per furrow.

Two other options on the Hamilton built trailer plows were adjustable levers and reduction gear on the lever settings. The adjustable levers were hinged in middle having 3 settings or notches, thus one could quickly change setting of lever to suit either a Farmall or a W Series tractor. The reduction gear was on the actual depth setting giving finer actual settings. I had photos of these levers on file in my computer at one time, they are now gone. I received them from Jim Cox in Innerkip Ontario and I e mailed them to Rusty Farmall, so if either one of those gentlemen are looking in perhaps they could post the photos.
