Time to get hitched.

After several weeks of playing around with the tractor, I'm quite satisfied with the performance for the time being. It's time to start making it useful.

I need to build a category 1, three point hitch. Three point hitches allow you to lift and lower implements like cultivators and ploughs. Since my tractor was built before Ferguson's patent expired, it never had one.







The hitch is crooked as anything. I'm not sure if I'm going to build the hitch square, and leave room to adjust it so it will fit, or just build it to fit what I've got.


If you have no idea what a 3 point hitch is, this website gives a pretty decent description.
