What's that Lassie? You say that Randy Replogle fell down the old

I would like to make a small plow to break up the sod at the edge of a

Go to a "farm store" and see what is available in plowshares, disks,
etc. Might give you some ideas.

I've looked online, and didn't find anything that I thought would
work. Most farm plows haven a three point hitch for use with a
tractor. And all the horse drawn plows require a person to steer it.
I need to drive the Jeep, so I can't guide the plow. I can only tow
the plow with a strap or chain so it will need to be made to follow
without guidance(other than the direction of pull).
I was thinking of something like a large fishhook, with a cross bar to
keep the point down(vertical).
