You asked for Pics of the planter, I hope these help......The drop spout
Detail of the 'splitter' on the bottom of the spout. This is adjustable up and down for depth of planting.....
The operators pick the spuds out of here, none ever fall out of the bin/hopper
The bin is shaped to fit over the top link.....
The bin sits on ledges on top of the spouts and this one bracket and lynch pin secures it
The bin is easy to lift off.......
Showing the detail on the top of the spouts
The bell wheel. You will see it has'ridges' pressed out with one main ridge. these gaive you the distance apart to plant your seed.

And rear view....
The fin sits slightly below the whole plough and keeps it running true in the ground......
That's about it!.............Sam
