Suggest you try a chisel plow rather than a moldboard - easier to
fabricate, also less long-term issues for soil structure. Good
leaf-spring project.

Sounds entirely too much like a plan ... I'm betting I can source
the actual plow blade locally , fabricate the mount springs and
framework in the shop ...and have an even bigger garden next year
with less actual sweat equity . My wife has no idea what kind of
monster she created when she showed me that online ad for a "lawn
mower" .



Too cool.

Post pix somewhere when you get it done.


Sure thing , if I decide to do it . Then I can retire that tiller that
beats me to death .
