Add On Disc Out Undisked Strip
![]() |
"Before I made this attachment my 12 1/2-ft. Ford-built disk would leave a 2 to 3-in. wide strip of grass or weeds after each pass was made. Now it all gets tilled," says Beddard. He says some farmers solve the problem with a single plow shank but that can cause plugging.
He mounted a single disc on a floating support arm between the front and rear disc gangs. He used a bearing section from a "disc hiller" that's designed to support a blade on either side. A chain sets the proper depth by hooking in a notch on the disk frame. The floating arm is about 2 ft. long with the pivot point toward the front.
