T in NE. This planter is a JD 7200 that started out as a 12 row wide. We made it into a 16 row narrow. Then the factory control box and electric valve block shorted out several years ago. So we/I made a new control box and valve setup from off the shelf parts. To have repaired it back to factory was going to cost around $5000. I have under $1500 in what we have now. The only thing was I did not make it like the JD one where you have to hold two switches to make some functions work. This control basically will do all kinds of crazy stuff if you have the switches set wrong. I made it to where things you would not normally use together are on the same switch and valve. Example would be the lift and fold.
So basically it is NOT idiot proof in any way. AN today I just proved that. LOL
None of the planting equipment on this farm is high priced. We have bought wrecked/broken/mismatch planters and made them into what we needed.
This 16x30 planter works well and we have used it for 8 years now. Our total cost when it hit the field was under $20K. That is not counting our labor just machine and parts.
