PVC Pipe Mounted On Deere Planter's Cross Auger PLANTERS Planters 22-1-30 "One handy idea we use in our shop is to wire a length of heavy extension cord directly to a wall outlet. We curl up the cord and hang it on the wall. That way it's always there when you need it and it can't come unplugged."
Eugene Alt, Audubon, Iowa: "We re-placed the steel tube on our Deere planter's cross auger with a piece of 6-in. dia. pvc pipe.
It works as well as the original and will never rust or corrode.
"We had a fabrication shop form a ęsaddle' out of sheet metal for the pipe to fit into. The saddle bolts to the original Deere uprights. The pipe simply sits in the saddle and is strapped in place.

We were able to use all the spacers, end pieces and the hop-per from the original auger.
