13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155
 

Hi together!

To have some equipment for the tillage I started with a 13ft disc today. Here are the first parts....nearly 2" diameter concaved steel discs...
They will be assembled with some tubes and a threaded rod.

...I do not build a certain type of disc, but I hope it will look a bit like this when it´s finished...:

That is a nice Disc Frank there is a guy here in the US that goes to the toy shows that has built that very same one to a T very nice unit. Cant wait to see more by the way were did you get the concave disc's made.

I am also interested in where the discs came from or where/how they were made. I want to make a disc for my JD

I got the discs from the local hardware store. Ususlly they are used as end caps for welded tubes.

The discs are connected to one shaft...:

That is looking great. Will it be all brass?

Re: 13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155
 

I think so....some parts brass, maybe some Aluminum...

Today I made the first test run of the lifting system...it works great with te cylinder!

To adjust the tilling depth I put the tractor 15 millimeter higher. In this position I can adjust the parallelism of the discs to the ground by turning the spindele...

If I find the time and the weather is ok I will make a video of the testrun outdoors in the next few days.

Looks fantastic!!! Did an awesome job on it! Cant wait to see the video!

Re: 13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155
 

great work ....

that cylinder is nice - better looking than the Firgelli styles....

Re: 13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155

Cool video! Looks pretty good

Re: 13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155
 

Very nice work, Frank. The disk looks awesome. That hard packed ground isn't a good judge for the disk's functionality though. I'm sure it would work a lot better in a more scale, packed dirt field.

Re: 13 ft disc for my DA9190 and MF1155
 

Video look good. I like the new tire setup. It looks like you need to adjust the hitch to have more rear dig. It looked like the rear was in the air and allowing the front to pull sideways and not cut like it should.
