Best Free Dvd Ripper 2023
Lara Preece
Well that is their choice but Ruby ripper does the most important, Accurate Rip if you they change their mind, also DBPowerAmp CD Ripper works with wine as far as I know, To me looks more like excuses to stay using windows but what do i know anwway
I bought a bunch of different brands of seam rippers and fabric knives and tested all of them on the same fabric and thread to see which one would do the best. This is my review of the six tools I tried, and which one is the best seam ripper.
A seam ripper is a small hand tool used when sewing that cuts stitches. The most common design has a handle, a shaft, and a head. The head is usually forked with the sharp knife part of the seam ripper in the center of the fork.
I like a seam ripper with the ball on the tip, and it has to be a smooth feel to the pick that I might use to just unsew a few stitches but also smooth going if I want to just rip a seam
Clover and Dritz have reliable quality. they are not expensive and sometimes I get one I an not in love with and I give it away to the local sewing school (Sew Magarbo)
I am currently using a ripper called Seam Fix with the silicone end
I have the shorter ones and they fit in my carry along bag too.
You have created a very good review
The best? Brillion.....but they also have the highest price. Their shank design is the best I've seen. They will run 20-22" deep and have plenty of clearance for trash unlike the DMI rippers. If you're looking at pull-type I always thought the Unverferth were a little light in the lift/wheel capacity.
I like working ahead of our JD512 with a tandem disk. I know some are objectionable to a "2nd pass" and are in constant search for that "1 do-it-all, cover-it-all" tool. You end up facing big money & having 10,000 things to adjust & grease & requiring 600 hp to pull, just to save that pre-pass with a disk. You can put a beginner or a veteran in the disk, no problem. Looks like it takes about 0.4 gpa fuel for a 30' modern disk. You don't need to go terribly deep, just cut the stalks. Work hours ahead, or days ahead of the chisel-ripper, doesn't matter. Then, you will have a minimal amount of residue left. Disk is easy to set & easy to maintain, then you can still use any favorite ripper or chisel plow (IL type of chisel plow, not MN or ND chisel plow!). Most disks will do 2x the acres/hr of the chisel plow.
Keep in mind, some talk about the residue left like you may have done something to actually remove it. You haven't. If you had 10T/A of stalks, cobs, etc prior to any tillage, you still have 10 T/A when you're done. It's just in more manageable (= degradable) pieces. I don't know anyone that doesn't want their residue to decompose, or maybe I'm missing something. Smaller pieces will degrade faster over the winter in NE IL. I'm sure that's no secret.
If you have access to only 1 person, 1 tractor, & 1 tillage implement, then my suggestion will not work for you.
OK...so what do you use for a disk-ripper that does a clean job & what do you pull it with?
I assume you've farmed long enough to know there is no free lunch. If a disk ripper has more attachments on it to "cover-cut-bury-etc", they do not pull for nothing. That 0.4 gph figure I gave is factual. You'll burn easily more than that pulling extra covering attachments (harrow, etc) w/a chisel, but you'll have a hard time measuring it. Also, that extra hp consumed will slow you up. The cost of a good used disk would be $15-25,000 per my experience & perusing TractorHouse. We were offered $12K for our disk on trade. It does a super job 99% of the time. You'd easily bury that in attachments for that disk-ripper-chisel & then find out it still doesn't cut it.
I'm not sure why you're paying a disk person $20/hr. Maybe union rates or something? No kids on the farm? They sure don't need $20.
Again, I'm almost sure you can buy/build that "perfect" covering tool. We've been in pursuit of it ourselves. Also, that disk is not a fall-only tool. With a little imagination (& fuel I guess), you can find needs for it in other times of the year. Do you do any tiling?
Ron, you have good points, but, as Jason was trying to get across to you - and for others to consider, if they didn't see through your fist post - your figures are not that simple and correct . . . ..
The point Jason left out is a disk is one of the highest maintinance items on a farm (any tool with disk blades/bearings are). There is expense associated, if you trade every yr or not . . . . .
I disk infront of ripper also - sometimes I disk twice infront of the ripper, to ensure I have it black enough. I don't plow, My ways are not the best or for everyone - but work in my soils and conditions, to my expectation.

I will assume you are correct about your disk & your farm & maintenance. I will state you are incorrect about our disk on our farm. It is not one of our highest maintenance tools. This JD disk is a few yrs old, but it has had good care & is in good shape. We grease it, but no other replacement parts yet. Those attachments on big disk chisels have the same rolling surfaces & bearing issues, if they exist. If one needs replacing, so will the other I presume, however since the disk is 30' wide, the bearings/blades don't contact as much soil per year as a 22-23' disk chisel, which is about all the bigger we can pull here in NE IL.
Now, let's get back to the OP intent. I doubt any purchased "single pass" tool can do as good a job as a tandem disk operated in front of a chisel plow (NE IL style chisel). I'm pretty sure that within a 5 mis radius of our farm, most every make/model style of disk chisel exists.
I use a 22ft 512 JD just like you, pulled by a 550 quad.
There is no free lunch, there is no attachments on the ripper. I will burn the same amount of fuel weather I disc or not, pulling the ripper. I dont know what my 32ft 630 disc is worth but if I start pulling it over 1500 hard acres it will cost alot in maintance. I do work the fields down twice in the spring however, once to knock down the root balls (I still see 80% of the shovels) and a second just before planting. That is usually 60ft at 7+ mph.
Yep, I pay my help $20+/hr and I dont think I can find just a disc person for 70 hours.
I am in search of a fall tool right now in fact and cant seem to find exactly what I want I think there is better tools out there besides the 512 or 2720. I sometimes just run the chisel behind a geringhoff. If you do find the perfect tool please let me know!
I didnt mean to say your way is wrong, if you have the help and the extra time and tractors more power to you, by the looks of your machinery and yard you are very successful at what you do so you must be doing something right. I just wanted to point a few things out was all.

First, I have no reason to even care what you do. I don't. It's your farm & you didn't ask for my help. But, I'll justify what we do & it's not done without a lot of experience & trials. OP asked about a more perfect "tool" to make more black dirt. There may be single tools that will make almost as black dirt as a tandem disk fb chisel plow....but it's not done for nothing and probably still not as good. This includes chopping corn heads. What do they advertise....12 hp per row needed to chop?
We have always found that where we disked the 512s pull easier. You are saying you do not experience that & I suppose it could be because of soil types? It only stands to reason for me since the front gang (notched for us) doesn't need to cut thru hard dirt & stalks, it only "throws & cuts" already uprooted & loosened stalks & dirt. I see much better dirt throwing by the 512 when running in disked ground. We do not run 2x in the spring ahead of planter, only 1x. We're 85% COC.
I know the fall disking is not free. I am probably the hardest line true believer in "no free lunch...ANYWHERE". However, also not free is the amount of rigormoro, maintenance & attachments needed by CNH (DMI), Krause, GP, etal. When we already have 500+ hp to throw around, it's hard to tell what that extra row of convex/concave/wavy/straight coulters needs to keep them turning. But, I always think about them like this. If that attachment was taken off that huge tool & just hooked up to an old IH straight M, would 45 hp pull it? Probably not. A straight 10-12' disk was a load for an M. Not a tandem, just a straight disk. So, anyway, those attachments take fuel & wear & tear. I suspect they'll cause more wear on themselves than my disk since they need to make more revolutions to do the same acres due to narrower machine width of cut.
I'll have to assume the cost of living is lower in NE IL than wherever you are. We have some of the best help imaginable, I think.
