I recently picked up several Planet Jr. Chain Drive seeder units and would like to get them mounted on a toolbar and set up with the chain drive. Unfortunately, I've never seen one of these set up and haven't been able to find any good pictures showing how the chain drive is set up and what material is used for the seed tubes. What I have right now is the chain drive units and several openers which can be mounted on an Allis Chalmers G style toolbar.
If anyone is using this style seeder, I'd be very interested in seeing pictures of how you have it set up.
What I would like to do is use either two of them with double spouts or four of them with single spouts to plant 4 row beds with both small seeds like spinach or lettuce mix and larger seeds like peas and beans which are spaced closely in the row.
Here is a link to a picture of the style seeder I have (go to the bottom of the page - Solex Chain Driven Seeder): http://suttonag.com/SolexPlanters.htmlSettu
