Clips Hold Planter Lids In Place

Clips Hold Planter Lids In Place PLANTING EQUIPMENT Accessories 18-4-39 Ken Cowman, Cambridge, Iowa, came up with a simple idea to hold the lids in place on his Deere planter while filling boxes with seed. He simply used electrical conduit hangars, bolting a pair of them to the underside of each lid and then bending them inward slightly to fit tightly over the box end. "You can buy the hangars at any hard-ware store. They're cheap and completely eliminate problems with lids blowing away. New Deere planters have hold-downs but none of the older ones do," notes Cowman. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Ken Cowman, Rt. 1, Box 80, Cambridge, Iowa 50046 (ph 515 383-4482).
