Add-On Furrow Opener For Grain Drills
I came up with this add-on furrow opener for Crust Buster and Great Plains grain drills myself because I wanted to be able to plant soybeans, milo, wheat and even corn with the same piece of equipment. It makes a furrow and leaves a clean seedbed free of trash and clods. Attaches quickly with one bolt. Blades are heat-treated and have two bearings per blade. After our neighbors saw how well the furrow openers worked, they wanted us to build them a set so we started building them to sell. We have a patent on the idea.
We also make fiberglass inserts for grain drill seed boxes on Great Plains, Crust Buster, Deere, and Case-IH drills. They're for use when you don't need a box full of seed. Most of our inserts hold 35 to 50 lbs. of seed and attach with one bolt in the bottom. (Joe Elmenhorst, OJ Drill Conversion, Rt. 1, Box 159, Moran, Kan. 66755 ph 316 237-4379)
