I Built Narrow Row Bean Planter For $400 PLANTERS Planters 18-1-10 "I'm sending along photos of a narrow row bean planter I put together last year at a cost of only about $400," says Richard Knox, Mabel, Minn.
"I bought two complete 500-series Allis Chalmers corn planters and three row units from another one. I added about 3 ft. of toolbar to one of the planters to make room for all the row units on the one bar.
"Three units mount on each side of the planter wheels and three units mount between the wheel& I plan to add one more unit between the rows. Tll then have a 10-row narrow planter that I think works as well as a new rig. It has row spacing of 17 in. (22 in. in the wheel tracks).
"I removed the fertilizer equipment and insecticide boxes. To slow the planting rate, I used a 10 by 14 drive gear."
