Been a while since I've thought of this one, but I think Farmall Bob has a good way of looking at it. The width of cut should be the distance from the already-open furrow to the wall of the next one. In my day, as we oldtimers now say, we referred to plows by the width times the number of bottoms (example: "two fourteens" meant a plow with two bottoms cutting 14" furrows each). The sales literature back in the 20s, 30s, 40s and probably even later would describe tractors as "two-plow,", "three-plow," and so on, and everybody seemed to understand that "plow" meant 14". If the tractor would pull a bigger plow, that was specified precisely (the low-compression John Deere A of the late 30s and into the 40s was described as "pulling two 16" plows," or something like this. This isn't very helpful, is it? Fun for me to look back on my youth, so please be indulgent.
