I bought an old drag disc for $50 last year but needed one I could lift over areas I didn't want to disc...so I needed to convert it to a 3pt model. I kept the actual discs and shaft and got rid of the entire old rotted/rusted drag frame. I like a drag disc since it flexes and follows the land contours better but I disc relatively flat areas...and what isn't flat becomes flat after a few passes.
It is built from 2" square tubing (should have used bigger but it is lasting so far). Last year I designed it on a big sheet of cardboard to make sure it all fit right, then welded it and used it on about 3 acres...but it was too light. So I molded concrete pads and set them on top...still too light and the concrete was trashing the metal.
