Chevy springs as the part that holds the actual plow blade . Basic
framework will likely be some 2X2 tubing , using some high-wheel

sets the depth?) . I'm not sure I'll even need to design a 3 point

That's kind of a catchall term, chisel plow. Picture of a JD V-Ripper

If you're thinking of something like that (but smaller) it will still
take a lot of machine to pull it. It sounds like you want something
similar to their cultivator:

Yup , that cultivator is very similar to what I have in mind . This is for
prepping my garden in spring , might see duty as a between-the-rows
cultivator too . I'll probably also use it so score the ground where I want
wild flowers and stuff planted for our bees . Not going to see really heavy
duty , at least that's not the plan now .
