Tractor implements and field plowing

Ok for those of you that might not have figured it out by now I am clearly not a farmer, but merely a hobby farmer. I just completed restoring my grandfathers old 53 Super C and it runs great. Now I am thinking about fixing up some of the old implements he has that go along with the tractor. I know there is a 2bottom plow that attaches somewhere near the midsection of the tractor and then has two rod that run by the operator (one on each side) that hook to the hydraulic arms. Then in our barn there is a pile of what look to be teeth from a rake of sorts. And then out in the field there is a planter of some sorts that has just about completely rusted through the hopers so that would be a real challenge. To make a long story short my questions are I know what a 2 bottom plow is used for, but what do you use to prepare the field after that? The soil is very clumpy after plowing I notice so how does a farmer go about smoothing it or breaking up the clumps to plant corn and such. My other question would be if you have a picture of your implement on a tractor would you mind posting it and then explaining to me what it is used for? Trying to learn more about the business and I have found the people on here to be the best of help. Thanks to all that respond.
