rubber fingers vs rubber paddles
(Preview)
I have a new idea picker and am thinking about replaceing the rubber fingers on the husking bed with rubber paddles. Do the rubber paddles do as good a job as getting the husk off as the fingers do ?

IH 1PR snapping rolls
(Preview)
I have an IH 1PR and I get more shelling at the snapping rolls than I think there should be. Is there somewhere that rebuilt or even new snapping rolls can be bought? Is there something that I could do myself to help make the rolls work better? Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Jim

2MH on 706/806

Does anyone have pictures of a 2MH on a 706 or 806? I think I've seen a picture in the parts book but not sure. I have brackets so hopefully I can find a 7 or 8 to put the 2MH I just bought on. Any body else have these brackets??? I will try to get some pictures uploaded sometime after I get everything sorted out...

Looking for some advise on checking the air in my 708 Uni. Just got it today and checked everything over and the only thing not functioning is the air.

My new wagon

Picked up this wagon at an auction last week. Didn't really need it, but the price was right. Has anyone else ever seen plywood sides on a wagon like this? This is the first one I have ever run across. Usually they are tongue and groove boards. If it HAS been rebuilt, then whoever did it did a darn good job! H...

Redneck corn crib

Call me crazy, but I just had an idea for a corn crib. I think I know where I can buy an old cotton wagon that has the wire cage sides on it. It also has tandem axles front and rear. This about a 35' long by 8' wide rig. It seems to me if a man made a roof for it, and put some vertical supports toward the middle of the w...
