Another Pennsylvania shop located near New Holland, Lancaster County. If you have a 300 and you can't get the parts from Deere, they have them. They make quick-adjust deck plates for the corn heads, too. 717-445-0990 -- Edited by Tim in NJ on Monday 18th of October 2010 10:50:23 PM

I recently bought a model 71 John Deere corn sheller and am wondering what years that model of corn sheller would have been produced. Does anybody have any information on that and if I can kind of narrow down what year mine was produced.

Here are some pictures I took while picking corn this fall. I have a 234 on a 706 and it does a great job of picking!! I custom pick for an elderly farmer who has organic ear corn. He plants around 30-32 acres a year.

I've seen ads or information for a couple different kinds of replacement finger wheels for NI pickers-- rubber ones from drsinc in Ohio, and a brush-type wheel from someone in PA. Anybody have experience with them, with an idea of which works best...and which lasts longest? Or other comments on them...
