Miss Frankie, you are one TOUGH young lady! Just in case no one has told you, that's a big Southern compliment, meaning you're multi talented, hard working and very smart! Your parents are raising you right! 🙏❤🙏
Excellent first run with the new row builder. Frankie letting you be the first to use it shows that she has a good head on her shoulders and wants to learn things from other peoples experience’s.
I am a fabricator at heart, I love seeing new equipment being built and refined. You are on to a great thing here. One thing that might help with the less than ideal soil conditions is maybe taking a grinder with a wire wheel and cleaning the inside so that the soil has a smoother surface and less friction allowing the dirt to move freely. I learned a trick years ago with a shovel,if it is clean and smooth digging is much easier. Wish you the best with this project, and please keep up to date.
Welcome to Mississippi. Don’t know exactly how long you guys have here but did notice 2610 tractor and equipment. A suggestion if you don’t know, use a 6 or 7 foot steel fence post to move equipment while hooking or unhooking! Makes hooking up with the standard 3 point hitch much easier. Phil
Mike, you could incorporate on the back of the tiller a roller to drop Bio360 film, and you could use the Row builder to cover up the film on the sides so the wind doesn't blow it away. Then just hand shovel some dirt on each end.
That is a pretty cool implement for your tiller. You know Tim and David will be jealous. They may be bad mouthing tractors but you have something really cool.❤
Boy, that thing is really going to be a game changer for that tiller. I haven't owned one of those but a friend has one and one thing it lacked was a good way to lay off rows. This will fix that for sure. You are right, the best way to do it is to till without it and then come back to lay off rows. You could probably pull that in to the second notch and make a perfect well mounded row in good soil conditions. My Daddy always believed in having good "middles" to hold water between the rows in dry times and keep the seed/plants up in wet times. Ideally, you'd have a tractor like the old single row Farmalls or John Deere models to do a garden with, but this will do. You will just have to put down plastic or do something for weed control. If this video was shot close to the current date, you may be a bit late for planting potatoes. I grew up in Central Mississippi about 90 miles south of you and we usually tried to get them in by mid March for harvest in mid June-ish. You may have trouble with potato bugs and other vermin by going later. Funny story about planting potatoes. My mother and father got married in the late 40's and made their first garden at our home place in 1950. They apparently got into a big fight about how to put the seed potatoes into the ground, with my Daddy insisting that the "eyes" go UP. My Mama thought that was insane and she just dropped them wherever. Turned out it didn't appear to matter and they didn't get divorced over it, thus I survived to comment on this! :)
Looking good and with tilling first pass and then attach the row builder and dryer soil should really be good. Also you can get hiller discs for your tractor to hill the potatoes as they grow.
Took my 6' "light duty" 3pt blade that bent in the middle, cut in half and made a 5' wide v-blade. It works great for snow removal and as a reverse "V"box blade for grading and with height extensions, does my raised beds. Really practical. Nice job on that rototiller set-up PS also installed cheap rear license plate camera, and i never looked back 😊
Hello mike & frankie😊 that row builder looks...smooth as butter! Great idea👍 time to plant! Syd who😏😊 you guys did a great job without the boss lady😁 although, the ending needs a little work😏😁 thank you😁👍
It won't be long before that young lady will be racing cars and breaking hearts. And THAT, my friends, will be the biggest challenge you will face. Trust me, I have daughters and as soon as the right... I mean wrong "donkey" comes along, your struggle will begin !!! Best of luck to you and I will be looking forward to your new posts.
Yea, I would think that design would work better with a forward tiller instead of a reverse. Great design on the row maker though. And oh yea, ground is a bit soggy for plowing.
you need to taper the front of the steel channel or use a narrower steel so the the cutter blades roll up more dirt and dig up more volume of dirt to pile in to the row and make the funnel smaller in the rear [basically dig deeper to pile higher]
The bottom flange on the hiller is holding it up just like the side shoes on the tiller. remove the bottom flange and you will see improved hilling and save time and fuel.
I agree, but also maybe, if they left about 4-6" of the bottom flange, bent down at the front, maybe that would help "pull" the hiller down into the ground? Obviously I am not sure, but the unit is not going into the ground. 🤔
I think maybe run the tiller first without the row builder to get some depth, looks like the flange on the bottom of the channel is acting like a skid and sliding on the hard ground. Get a deep till then try the row builder.
Our neighbor Alan makes them . Shoot him a message through his shop link www.etsy.com/shop/IronWorksHouston?load_webview=1&bid=OPEE_BYt9qPD-UNLUID3_7IenOQv 😀
@ronniebrashear5633 as I said above his shop link is in the video description but I’m placing it in this comment as well www.etsy.com/shop/IronWorksHouston
I think the concept has merit but i think the height of the I Beam is what is killing the design. As it stands the tiller is not able to depress further into the soil. How about cutting 4 inches off the bottom and adding it to the top of the i beam. That would create a much deeper row. Also the soil is way to wet.
if that girl gives you two any flack about the way you end a video hit her with a water ballon or two;;; cool her off a bit;;;if she don't like it she don't need to run off and play whilst y'all have to stay home and work;;;lol;;;;well now you have chillin spillin and tillin;;;;lol;;;;good one;;;don't care what Syd thinks;;;;bif thumbs up and keep em comin;;;;
Looks like you're probably need some more adjustments for the depth of your row maker. Even in dry conditions I don't think you have gotten the hill that you desired. Probably need to be able to go down another 4 to 6inches
single bottom turning plow way then do it on the other side of planned bed area and have the soil turned into each other add manure, fertilizer or azomite; then till once or twice without hiller, the third pass add hiller and it will give you 8-12inch deep garden bed hills.
A reverse rotating tiller won't pile the soil in your shaper like a forward rotating tiller will, i would remove the bottom lip to allow the shaper to go deeper and collect more soil on the second try.
Small world. I used to live in Cleveland, Senatobia, Oxford, and Scooba, MS. My dad was a Delta State and Ole Miss football coach. I went to Oxford High School. I used to date a girl named Darlene (can’t remember her last name, but she went to Northwest MS Com Col and would be around 52 yrs old) from Houston; it’s a tiny town, but good people. Interesting video. I live in GA mountains now, but still visit friends in Grenada area. Be safe and take care.
I made one of these last year for my L2501 tiller...I put a piece of 3/4" plywood on the top which gives it a nice flat surface after tilling. Works mint.
Frankie, you are doing an awesome job with driving that tractor. Keep up the good work. Mike and Syd you are doing a great job teaching Frankie so many important life skills. God Bless all of you.

Cool implement for the tiller!
Have a good week,God Bless!😊
I agree. When the soil dries out it is going to be awesome. What a time saver. Good luck✌️🇺🇸❤️
Frankie still gets my vote for tractor driver of the year!! You go Girl!!! 🚜
Yes 🙌🏼
Till the ground first, excellent Row maker
Love seeing you guys together. Makes me think of my daughter and working on projects. These days she can work me in the ground!
❤️
Great job love your work so hard father and daughter it great to see that
Good Sunday evening @3 Mississippi
Frankie, Mike, & Syd 🇺🇸
You can extend your potatoes by cutting them into eyes for planting.
That row maker was pretty cool. NC
Wow your getting good on that tractor Frankie
You need to do all of your tilling passes to break up the sod and soil then put it on for the final pass
Making Memories ( Priceless ) you all are awesome
That’s gonna be a game changer for sure! Nice work Y’all👍
That is a pretty cool implement for your tiller. You know Tim and David will be jealous. They may be bad mouthing tractors but you have something really cool.❤
Ha ha very true !
Wow that's one awesome contraption... "The Row Builder" (patent pending) 😃❤️❤️❤️

I think that thing will save lots of labor Miss Frankie doing good job she is way ahead for her age 👍
She really is !
That looks handy for all sorts of gardening.
Frankie, you're awesome 😎, hope to see you doing more bass fishing and your family!! 🐟 🎣
Good job, Frankie!
She’s killing it !

Nice job on that rototiller set-up PS also installed cheap rear license plate camera, and i never looked back 😊
Ha ha that’s a good idea
if you design it to attach directly to the 3pt hitch also you could use it as a hiller too.
Looks like you need to bring in the sides to make it smaller
Great Job Frankie
That set up is Sweeeet!😊
All you need in the back is a chain, that way you can easily adjust the width
I was just thinking of making one of those.
Hello mike & frankie😊 that row builder looks...smooth as butter! Great idea👍 time to plant! Syd who😏😊 you guys did a great job without the boss lady😁 although, the ending needs a little work😏😁 thank you😁👍
Only if I could find a cheap tiller. I am looking for some ideas to get some rows build up and this is one cool idea for sure.
Enjoyed
Make an attachment that will kick the middle of the row out so u can plant and just cover up what ur plant
Hi Frankie and Mike
As you move forward on the angle iron row width your rows will get narrower.
U need a hydraulic top link on 3pt of tractor. Makes 3pt equipment so much more usuable.
I’d cut 80% of the flange off the bottom to allow it to sink.
Blessings and Shalom Shalom Chaverim
Quick hitch Harbor Freight works well there around $130
It won't be long before that young lady will be racing cars and breaking hearts. And THAT, my friends, will be the biggest challenge you will face. Trust me, I have daughters and as soon as the right... I mean wrong "donkey" comes along, your struggle will begin !!! Best of luck to you and I will be looking forward to your new posts.
Something like that would work good with a hiller
I have no idea what a row builder is but sounds interesting
If you let out your top link, it’ll put more pressure against the end row maker then your idea actually mit work a little better. Just an idea.
Yea, I would think that design would work better with a forward tiller instead of a reverse. Great design on the row maker though. And oh yea, ground is a bit soggy for plowing.
The heat getting to yall in thayone😂😂😂😂😂
You guys need to get a quick hitch!!!!
Is that a counter rotation tiller?
you need to taper the front of the steel channel or use a narrower steel so the the cutter blades roll up more dirt and dig up more volume of dirt to pile in to the row and make the funnel smaller in the rear [basically dig deeper to pile higher]
Anyway to reach this guy other than an Etsy page? I’m in Oxford and can come down
Should put a patent on it lol.if not already on market
Have a great rest of week.your neighbor ptown
Do you wish you made it 2 rows wide?
The bottom flange on the hiller is holding it up just like the side shoes on the tiller. remove the bottom flange and you will see improved hilling and save time and fuel.
I agree, but also maybe, if they left about 4-6" of the bottom flange, bent down at the front, maybe that would help "pull" the hiller down into the ground? Obviously I am not sure, but the unit is not going into the ground. 🤔
I completely agree. that was one of my first thoughts on this style vs many on youtube
So are you trying to grow stuff in the mound of dirt you dug?
Yes, it’s a raised garden row .
@@3MISSISSIPPI thanks, im new to gardening
I think maybe run the tiller first without the row builder to get some depth, looks like the flange on the bottom of the channel is acting like a skid and sliding on the hard ground. Get a deep till then try the row builder.
I agree.

Whear did you get your row hiller made ? how much did it cost ?
Our neighbor made it . There is a link in the description to his Etsy shop where he sells the kit 😀
how can I get in touch wit your neighbor to see if I can purchase a row hiller Thanks

I can't understand what you and that man were saying about something he is making out of flat steel; some kind of track?
It’s a row builder out of steel for gardening rows .
Back in 1985 I bought 8hp Troy built its row maker with wings was great for taters...
if that girl gives you two any flack about the way you end a video hit her with a water ballon or two;;; cool her off a bit;;;if she don't like it she don't need to run off and play whilst y'all have to stay home and work;;;lol;;;;well now you have chillin spillin and tillin;;;;lol;;;;good one;;;don't care what Syd thinks;;;;bif thumbs up and keep em comin;;;;
🇳🇴👍👍👌
Kinda dry without Syd .
😂
Doesn't work.
Boorah Grasshopper s 🤪👍👏🏆🏆👴🐕🚜🤠😎🕺
Love it The videos was awesome
Looks like you're probably need some more adjustments for the depth of your row maker. Even in dry conditions I don't think you have gotten the hill that you desired. Probably need to be able to go down another 4 to 6inches
Thats a awesome incredible tiller cultivator it did a very very good job cultivate & tilling the soil
Great job 👏
single bottom turning plow way then do it on the other side of planned bed area and have the soil turned into each other add manure, fertilizer or azomite; then till once or twice without hiller, the third pass add hiller and it will give you 8-12inch deep garden bed hills.

NEWBIE . Would like to see not video w/drier soil, before I give thought on a great design. 😄🤠😎👍
Nice job it will work because look like its ajustable
Good job Frankie keep up the good work I enjoy watching.
Nice Job!
It will work great in dry soil. I built one myself, and I wish I would have taken the time and put pins in it like you did. New Sub. 👍
Right on , thank you 🙏

Buy that young lady a Speeco quick hitch and make everyone’s life easier.
I built mine but made it for the three-point hitch, and it's worked great for the last four years.
Looks good, now where do I get mine..............LOL
Frankie's Best!!
Did good my boy eleven got him doing this yeah you guys are great
Try adding two furrowers for better rows.
I always envy growers with nice soil and flat land!
Hi Frankie & Mike God Bless ❤❤
That’s an awesome tiller!
They sure do grow up fast don't they
What are the dimensions of the 2 sides
I think it’s listed on his Etsy site listed in the description
I ment the detentions of the actual row builder
If it works Genius
Keep up the Hard work
