    I've looked at a bunch of images of Van Brunt model B's and none look exactly like this one. There are various models under the Van Brunt name.

    This one needs some seed tubes replaced. Where's the best bet for getting those? I'm sure the spiral steel ones are impossible to find. If I can narrow down the model number and/or year made, it will make finding rare replacement parts easier.

    Thanks in advance.

    Agri Supply. Cut the steel band off at the seed cup and slid on replacement rubber accordion style and zip tie around it to keep it in place. Then attach the other end to planter shoe with two zip screws.

    its a "B"

    i'll bet it has a model number under that new green paint. look closely. maybe inside the box where they usually put the graphs? may be at the bottom of that graph.

    I feel like I need a drill. Maybe smaller than the one shown here.

    I might just go steal 2fer's drill and blame it on the natives.

    I've got a 5' Tye on a 3pt frame and love it. It is a food plot planting mofo.

    Smilie is right AgriSupply for the replacement tubes and Shoup Supply for other parts.
