Subject: RE:USING A TORCH


Southwest Missouri
I had that idea. We had some dull blades. I made a quick jig so that I could hold the torch at a proper angle. I "sharpened" all six blades much quicker than I could ever have sharpened them.

When I started using it here in the Ozarks, I hit a few rocks. Not many because our fields are pretty good. Yet, the blades broke. It appears that the torch changed the metal and made it brittle. I bought new blades and now either use the Plowboy philosophy or buy new ones.
