Buggy, I was doing some searching in old post and found one discussing hillside plows. I was wondering if you still have your Vulcan plow. Does it do a good job? I was thinking about getting a new one from Erb plow works. Any help would be app.

Still got it, a Vulcan 10 Hillside. To tell you the truth never have used it, but it is all there and in excellent shape. Got so much around here most just visits for awhile till someone wants it worst than me.

I have a Vulcan # 10 hillside that I need to restore. It needs handles and cleaned up. I'd love to see some pics of one with original paint colors.

I use the hillside plows here in WV. Most recently I have used an Oliver the same size as the Vulcan #10. Also enjoy using a #6 one horse hillside plow. I have a good #10 and a spare for parts. For just my regular spring plowing I use a 13 Vulcan left hand steel beam. It does a fine job. The hillside plow is lighter and not as good for deep penetration or rough ground. but works OK for garden patches and really saves by turning on the headland and going right back in the furrow. You don't need to "flip" the plow, just release the latch then lean it over as the team turns, the moldboard rolls over and latch it back for the next furrow. Mark wv

Mark, if you don't mind me asking, what part of wv do you live in? I worked in Mcdowel County for about 3 yrs. And do you use a team with the Vulcan or can 1 horse handle it? I was thinking I can deal with a little less performance if when I break a plow point or something it can be replaced relatively easy. All I will be doing with it is working it in the spring contracting the elderlies' gardens.

re: evans, I live in Greenbrier Co. just north of Lewisburg. The #10 Vulcan is a 2 horse plow. The #6 is a one horse plow. Now I am sure that the 10 can be pulled with one horse in the best of soils, but the hitch is different for a one horse, so the hitch can slide over to keep the horse on the land instead of walking in the furrow.You may email me if you would like mark

Evans, the Vulcan left yesterday along with a disc and a planter that had been keeping it company. Sure will miss visiting with it, but it went to a good home. Will be in Ohio next week. Got some room on the trailer and in the barn. We might have a couple of new visitors.

Well, I hate to hear that, buggy. I guess I should have spoken up sooner. I hope to hear back from Erb soon. Guess I will go that route.

I have moved into an old farm from around the early 1900s and I found an old Vulcan plow and I also found what looks to be an old seeder with a funnel and steel wheel with the attachments. The Vulcan seems to be all there except for the handles. On the side it says Vulcan no 6 steel beam and on the other it says vulcan no 6n. I was wondering if I could find out how old it is. Thanks for any replies.

Here in Puerto Rico we use the Vulcan #8. The suppliers stopped bring parts for them. Is there a place where I can purchase about a dozen SHARES. In my town of San Lorenzo there are about 10 persons who still use a pair of oxen to plow our mountainous terrain. Will be grateful.

I don't have a dozen shares, but I do have 5 on hand. This should be on the equipment Swap Meet. If you would like you can e-mail me at @. Thanks, Tommy

I would some pictures of the Vulcan. I have a plow and do not know what I have.

Thanks
