My conversation with you was a plesant experiance, and you seem like a role model gentelman. Although at this time things did not go as expected you were still very plesant about the whole ordeal.
I will say with plows plugging up we used to get off and kick the crap out of the stalks, perhaps harder than we thought because of the constant challange.
The old trip bottom plows would plug, then the land wheel with the lift would just slide in the dirt so it would not raise at all. We would stare at the first stalk wrapping, then two, three etc. Often you knew that certian amount that was the max for easy cleaning, yet heck no we would just have to chance it unplugging by itself...odds were 1 --100 but ya just were to lazy to get off and do it when it was still easy.
We tried dragging log chains, we tied them with a twine string up high on each bottom, and when it got plugged pretty good we would pull the knot from the tractor seat, thus dropping the log chain on top of the heap. The chain would then get partualy plowed under pulling downward over the pile. That way you avoided getting off the seat till the next time it plugged, thenyou kicked the stalks out with a log chain making things worse. I once doubled the chain back to the seat of the tractor and was going to pull when it started to plug. Dad never did find out how the seat on the tractor got bent, and I never showed him my sore hand either.
Probably took more time than it was worth, but ya had to keep trying something.
By the way did you find out anything about that ford hitch? That is kinda bugging me so I think while I'm trying to avoid income tax preperation I will jump to the ford fourmn.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
