Been trying to finish up this years spring plowing. This field on neighbors land has shallow soil covering limestone bed rock from one end to the other. I have the hydraulic pressure on the reset system set as low as I can and keep the bottoms in their operating position, but still tore things up today, with the tractor just above an idle over the bad spots. The bottom of the furrow is like a slippery sidewalk. Had trouble getting traction with furrow wheel. Sure wish my old 931 had a diff lock. Yesterday I was riding the LH brake plowing sod ground,--today I'm riding the RH one as the bed rock in the bottom of the furrow is wet and slimy. I hooked into a real bad spot and broke the front bottom totally off. I had to head back to the shop and weld up the plow frog that I broke into 2 pieces. I got it all welded back together and finished the field with no further breakdowns. The cousin is going to have a real field day picking stone with the 1845 Case skid-steer, and rock bucket. I kinda had to laugh; the neighbo came down with another load of manure, and saw some of the rocks that I pulled up. He said they never saw rock that big in the field. I said' "I guess you never plowed over 6" deep". Their biggest plow was 4-14" trip bottom. Loren
Got the broken frog all straightened and welded back together. Found an old slat from the feed house on the combine to make a new cross brace from. The old round brace got ripped off.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
