I guess it must be my lucky day. I got a call about another mounted picker and went to look at it, turns out I had seen it before. It's a JD 227 that has been shedded on a concrete floor, complete with a 50 sheller. It had been mounted on a late-styled "A" that a friend bought a few years back, the mou...

Hi, I've got a couple of questions about mounting a John Deere 237 on a Late A JD. We had one on a 3020 when I was growing up and I have a chance to buy a "long nose" 237 that has always been shedded and is only a couple miles away. Supposedly all the screens, 1,000rpm drive, etc. are with it for the 30...

Looking for a operators manual for the 4B JD sheller. It was my great grandfathers and I dragged it out of the trees. It needs a bearing and some sheet metal repair but it looks salvagable. Thanks, Dave

I've been pickin' corn forever, but know nothing about shellers. I'm going to have to find a sheller, or some way to pick/shell on my farm. The MM shellers really appeal to me (watching them on YouTube), but I know nothing about them. I have no idea what the capacity or characteristics of a D vs E vs 1200...

What can you tell me about these? Are there different sizes and what would I need? Does any one know where I can find a metal sediment bowl for my 706? I have never had one nor has my dad when we have picked corn over the years with either the Farmall M and 2MH picker or the IH 656 and NI 319. -- Edited by KA656 o...

After my corn crib was full I had two wagons of corn left. I put up the snow fence cribs on a hay wagon so I can move them plus they get air from the bottom. My question is, should I cover them or leave them alone. Last year I covered them and some water leaked thru the tarp and the corn molded where it got wet....

Id say that would depend on where you live. I think I could get by with a much wider crib here in NE Okla, than I could when I lived in NE Kans. I think dads was around 10ft wide, and around 24ft long. Maybe 10ft outer wall. I kinda think he said it could hold 750bu.
