So the latest winter project is coming to a close. I had gotten a 3 point hitch 4-bottom Oliver plow several years ago and hadn't had the time to work on it 'til now. I have sort of worked it in with the spring sugaring season. (Sugaring has finally wrapped up for the season.)Today, I hope to paint it. 
 I don't know what model it is. It has a square support beam running the length of it, a rubber tire mounted on the side for depth control, and a tall lever to adjust the pitch of the lift arms. If anyone has any guesses what it might be, I would be glad to hear it. It also has the keystone Oliver emblem on each plow bottom.
   When I got it, the plow seemed to have been dropped from a considerable height. The long supporting beam was bent, so I made a new one. The steel plates that form the attachment point for the top link were also badly bent so I was able to put them in the wood splitter and straighten them nicely. The rear rolling landside was seized and badly bent... again straightened in the wood splitter.  It looks pretty good now!  <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D --> 
The mouldboards are quite rusty so will need to be shined up some before
 I give it a go.  It will be soon I hope! Turned soil is the truest sign of spring!
