    Old John Deere adjustable cultivator plow sweep shanks

    One of the local farmers broke 1 of his shank adapters on his 60 year old Jonh Deere cultivator plow the sad thing was half of the pieces that broke off were lost so no chance of welding the old cast iron piece back together for him
    I made him a couple of new ones

    After dressing and tacking the 4 side pieces together I locked a T bolt to the mill table then used it to hold them at the pivot point to clean up the radial slot
