i have no pictures of the rig in operation, but would like to get some pictures of it soon and when i do i will be sure to post them on here, maybe just some pictures of it sitting in the yard because we only plow in the fall here. The D8 works quite well in our soil, we are right in the bottom of the red river valley here in southern manitoba and it is clay/silty soil so it imposes very little wear if any on the under carriage since clay is a natural lubricant. I can plow just about 15 acres an hour with the 24 bottoms. We have recently discovered that plowing in this land increases productivity quite significantly. nobody within 100 miles of us plows at all, everyone got away from plowing in the 60's when the average farm went from 160 acres to around 10000 acres today. Nobody has the time to get the plows out for a few hundered acres. But I figure with 48 bottoms goin we could just about cover what needs to be covered around our farm in a good fall.
