[QUOTE="VelocityYellowRules!, post: 132351, member: 1318"] Good morning Riley, Yeah, you could almost launch a missle from those pipes! So today is hump day, we'll be 1/2 done seeding unless something really bad happens. It actually started out to be a super day until my first fill of fertilizer. Dad forgot to switch the value from the cart auger to the fan and I missed this too. There is a monitor in the cab but it gives erratic readings and so I ignored it. But the little voice in my head was yelling at me the whole time so after I went over 20 acres I stopped and as soon as I opened the door it was - oops - I don't hear the fan! It also turns out that the wrap spring clutch on the fertilizer metering roll drive broke - it had a coil break already but there must have been enough to allow the shafts to still be coupled. Anyway, while I really cool design I won't bore you with the story. I had a previous wrap spring clutch issue about 5 years ago with the other drill so I'm sort of Ph. D. level with them and also had spares. Put the new one in and off I went. Had to go over the 20 acres again and so lost about 2 1/2 hours but still finished the 2nd and 3rd fields and started the headlands on 4 of 8 fields. So feeling positive for the day, should get to #5 field and if things go good even finish it.............. Still no word from Steve.............. Cheers, Garry [/QUOTE]
