I don't have a picture of it, but this is a description.
It is a giant single steel wheel, about 30 inches in diameter and about 6 inches thick and it drags at about a 45 degree angle to the tractor.
It will sink up to the axle just because of the sheer weight.
That thing looks like it weighs 800 pounds!
It is made for breaking new ground and weeds don't wrap around it.
It peels a giant swath of dirt and simply lays it over.
Afterwards, you can run your set of discs over it without all the weed-wrap filling up the discs.
I have never seen one before or since, but it fits a 3 point hitch.
No plow I've ever seen did as much work in as little time as that one, but you could tell it was very old.
If I ever see another one, you can bet I will try to buy it.
It has grease fittings for lubing the bearings. nope ,,, it don't work on a three point hitch , least the ones i've seen don't . Frankie, you are probably right in that they weren't originally designed for 3 point. Let me clarify and say the one I saw being pulled could have been refitted because the one I saw was being pulled by a relatively modern tractor. lol you can do a lot with a torch and welder on the pull behind ones you have a rod that fits to the steering on the right wheel that turns the wheel on the plow . you ever see a super A or a 100 that has a plate with a hole in on the right side above the tire that what its for
