NW Washington | Well Matt I just have to say I disagree with you on the Cross Slot drill. The downpressure system used by Cross-Slot is only enough to keep the opener at desired depth.
I see that corn planters are just now beginning to use a similar system. The parts come from New Zealand, but the replacement of wear part on the opener is relatively simple operation and much less work than repairing a JD opener. Ag Pro in Lewiston Idaho is now assembling Cross Slot drills more suited to farming in this part of the Pacific NW. I think Gates in ND is making them in that area.
Dan Wolf in his video has been using Cross Slot drills for many years in Eastern Washington. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8REFJ6eDkg
