Took a idea from Briar Hill (with a few changes of my own) turned out great!

Red...what size are your disks? I am thinking of getting a hiller, (bedder), and have a choice of 14 or 16 inch disks. Is bigger better?

I purchased the 16 inch. The way I had it figured is that you can always raise the implement to decrease the depth of the cut, but if smaller discs are used, you can only cut so deep. I mounted them on a one row cultivator, 2 tools in one.

Good point, Don. I will go with the 16's. It will also go on my one row cultivator. I have a Leinbach #10 cultivator.
