 I’m also curious what you all have done or seen done to Simplicity attachments to make them work for other applications.

"Self Powered Tow Behind Tiller" - OHSA Unapproved is what makes it special

 

[MercerRec]

I am slightly surprised the wheelie bar wasn't added to the "hotrod tiller".

[PhanDad]

I'm liking "Segway Tiller" better.

"Hope the lift socket pin dont come out..."

 

Took a planetary type sickle mower and  added a couple of brackets to the frame for an idler pulley or two, a lift cable attaching point,  then bolted a rod  with stops on it on a bracket across the mount part of the frame. This allowed it to be used with the tiller drive on the back of a Wheel Horse 314 garden tractor, among other models too.

Later knocked the extras off and sold it back in the oemSimplicity format..

Run behind tiller.

Self powered tiller. Fits on any ATV with brackets. Works good.

I once had a yellow 42 inch deck that had been adapted to a Gilson. Also parted outa Simplicity cultivator that had been adapted to a early JD. Oh the humanity!

The original Mantis garden tiller.  Didn't sell too many.

That’s obviously a walk behind

About 18 years ago I rescued a small frame belly grader blade out from under an old Cub Cadet. It didn't really work well with the lift system under the Cub.  It had a couple holes drilled in the frame and the little arm that the lift chain hooks to had been cut off.  I found some matching material after measuring an NOS blade I had and welded it back on, filled in the holes and have used it ever since under my mutt 717.  I had to make a belly grader to work on the guys JD 212 to trade him.  Was pretty easy - I had some pics from parts and sales literature, and used a cutting edge for a 3pt back blade for the moldboard.  I don't know if I have any photos of that project.

Another time I saw a Simplicity 48" deck under a 300/400 series Allis.  They had the one end torched out of the deck and had swapped blades to allow it to spin the right way for the tractor.  Not good.

I made a rear lift for my 717 to use a Simplicity walking tractor disc behind it.  I used the 738 style tiller hitch system for inspiration and the lift rod and hitch bracket.  Worked really well.  Not sure if I have photos from that or not, hasn't been on the tractor in many years.

I'd be more interested in the pulling tractor

For sale:primitive outboard motor. All you need to add is a boat. Motor digs its own worms.

The little motor that stands its ground.

I am really really impressed with everything you guys came up with! It’s been a busy couple of weeks at work and I came back across this and it was quite a surprise!

[TommyK1]

I know that tiller!  Owned by a guy we call "Stumpy", walks with a limp.

Looks like a mini AT Walker from Star Wars!

A pair of handles to be added just behind it.
