Other than the shape of the outside gatherers, the new "waffle-type" snapping rolls (which could be put on a 227), and going back to three gathering chains per row, instead of the two used on the 227) what were the other differences? I did like the built in step on the tire shields on the 237. ...

What's the difference between a 2MH and a 2M-HD? I've been looking on Ebay for a 2MH parts book, and have only seen books for the 2m-HD. thanks, Al

I have this posted in the For Sale/Wanted forum. I'm putting it here too in case anyone may not have seen it over there. I also added some pictures of the part I am looking for. We broke a gathering chain on a New Idea no. 300 picker. The link that broke was one of the attachment links (the ones with the h...

I am not affiliated with the ad but there is a New Idea mounted corn sheller advertised on Yesterday's Tractors. Looks pretty good and the price isn't bad. It's in Iowa. Mike

Girlfriends dad brought home a couple more tractors for 2 more 2MH's he's buying. One is a 51 M (Super M decals) that needs just some small stuff. Other is a 53? Super MD not running hopefully it doesn't take much. [IMG]https://i610.photobucket.com/albums/tt181/RobinsonFarms/20151219_1348...

I see where several of you fellows have some planted. Have thought about it, but never done it. Was wondering about a few things. What population do you plant? What is the cost? Is there a source close to central VA (thinking of frt. costs)? Also wondering how it yields compared to conventional hybrids...

Here is my 1937 Farmall F30 with an IHC #20 mounted picker. The picker is pretty worn, all of the chains are rusted solid and most of the sprockets are beyond worn out. But there does not seem to be very many of this picker around anymore. There is a restored picker like this on an F30 in Harold Warp's Pionee...

It's wintertime. My mind wanders this time of the year. What can I say..... First and foremost I am an IH guy. One of the items on my must-have list is a mounted picker. I really like the 2MH, I know the 234 is the best unit (and I have an 856 that I could put a narrow front on and mount the 234) but there's so...

Just curious, when a 2MH picker is mounted on a M/Super M/400/450, how tall is the elevator sticking out the back? Is it better to remove it from the tractor before you haul it? Was wondering how folks haul their pickers to shows and so forth. Al

I just bought a NI 319 picker with a sheller attachment. How hard is it to remove the auger section from the unit for transporting it? Thanks, Mark.

I've been replacing the wood that the gathering chains run on my picker. Several years ago I removed the chain that drives the trash bed under the husking rolls and a chain that runs the ear corn elevator from the front of the trash bed.

This is what followed me home last weekend. It's a 1952 6A. It needs a few things, but it obviously has not sat outside much.

Could the powers that be do something about the spam concerning bran machines, rice mill machines, and so forth? Picking season will be here shortly and this year's activities might just as well appear uncluttered.
