much.


I wish I knew where to find photos of 1930s Planet Jr tractors and
implements.



I haven't found any photos of a wheel hoe with a similar attachment.

Here's a similar attachment on an unidentified Planet Jr tractor. The
four-point hitch looks the same. Rob's mystery item would allow more
choice about where to put the blades and might allow things other than
chisels to be attached.

This is NOT an attachment for a wheel hoe Or for ANY planet Jr. powered
equipment.
It IS the human powered push type wheel hoe.
The item in the picture is the main frame (missing the handles and the
front wheel) with three cultivator teeth attached.

The Planet Jr. name was used on much more than just the walk behind
tractors. They made horse drawn and people powered garden and farm
equipment long before they made anything with an engine on it.
