Love that exact emerge. I’m not able to get my money’s worth out of them on our cover cropped ground, but when custom planting soybeans on a prepared seedbed, I’ve been up to 12-13 mph and still 99.5%. I have won over a following with my 20” pitch on beans. Made some big believers. What I can cover with two 90’ toolbars at that speed, it’s not worth building or buying a planter for what I charge.
@Matt Phillips that I'm not sure ... I think it was 20% here in sw iowa if I remember right....now we just use refuge in a bag - so everyone's removed the refuge plus units from their planters ...
@@Blackearthexcavationandtiling i seen the refuge plus or ssomething to that on that bulk tank and was guessing you guys still had to deal with that % the old way there not knowing if the % planted was different from here i have been retired from 2015 and the rib was just gaining traction here in my state IN
That would be neat! ... I did talk to some engineers there before, and a couple of my ideas are currently patented with JD because of it .... but that's about as far as any of its ever went ... I am working on a combine build video - you'll have to stay tuned for it - it will be a good one! ...
I work at John Deere at the Engine Works factory. I truly enjoy your videos and enjoy seeing all of your great John Deere equipment. I have been a subscriber since you pulled that 460 out of the shed. I really liked when you talked about how much better that 13.6 liter in that 9R you just bought. Keep it up!
What was wrong with the marker arms that came on the tool bar ?
They were bent and broken (had been welded up) ...
i always enjoy your rebuilds. You take something old and make it better than new...talented
Thank you very much! I sincerely appreciate the compliment
Interesting rebuild
Yes it is!
Doing this exact same thing with refuge tanks but on a 16R30" 1720.
Nice! Good deal!

I have one of those refuge setups setting out behind the shop because I thought I may use it someday but never have found a project for it 🙄
Oh wow ... I wish we'd spoken earlier! ...I had a heck of a time finding two of them ...
Looks like you will be exercising your thinking skills have fun and thanks
Do you have access to a powder coat facility?
We do ...but not for anything this physically big....
Gonna be a cool build!
Thanks!
Could i ask what type monitor bracket you use on the command arm ?
In the 6120M .. I built everything myself
can you not get your corn seed all ready mixed ike e can here they cal it RIB refuge in a bag
Yes we do ... now ..but at one time it wasn't sold that way ...
@@Blackearthexcavationandtiling was not sure if that rib was a state by state amount mandate or not and if they had it there in your state

I’ve been wanting to build the same thing.
she'll be a nice planter when your done! Wish I had one for bean planting that'd be slicker than shit.
Thanks very much! ... mainly we plan to use it just for early soybeans - but it can also do corn ....I'm excited to get it into operation ...
Hello! I'm late...😊
Gonna be pretty damn sharp. And would work on that 4620 or 4850. Good excuse to keep and run them .
Thanks very much
if you cant buy it build it
John Deere should hire you to be an engineer
