I talked to the owner of this corn crib and he said I could have it. Now I need to figure out how to move it the five miles to my grandparents place. It is about 54 feet long and 12 feet high. A 3,000 bushel corn crib. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I didn't post the link, but there's lots of pictures of it, and it is indeed an Oliver #5 painted UFT red . . . . this is the 2nd one I've seen now.

Has anyone here ever used a corn binder and then shocked the corn to dry before running it though a husker shreader. As soon as I get my husker shreader running I would like to try it

Anyone ever have any experience with one of those bucket elevators built into the corn crib? My grandpa has one in his grainery but hasn't used it in over 20 years.

My grandfather used to plant the field corners square. The picker couldn't follow that corner. It wasn't acceptable to run any over with the picker, either. So the grandkids were sent out at the beginning of the season with a tractor and a box wagon to pick the corners out by hand. Due to not having...

Tom, would happen to have the brochure on a David Bradley wagon? I have a barge wagon I think it's a David Bradley. I would like to see what the decals looked like and where they went. It has a Case running gear and I don't know what the hoist is. Thanks Ron

Here's the brochure for another picker that was a topic here a week or two ago - the John Deere No. 200 Two-Row Pull-Type Picker, print number A618-47-6. And just for your information, print numbers on John Deere brochures are generally read as follows: The "A" prefix stands f...

Here is one of my recent purchases - a brochure for the Minneapolis-Moline SK Two-Row Mounted Huskor. This is the one they called the "Rock and Roll" picker - you rocked it back on its parking stands and then just drove your tractor out from under it. Anyone have one of these? I didn't realize...

I was offered $600.00 for a 101 that has been repainted, new tire, and absoutly no dents or scratches. Nothing has been wore out, as it was a very very small farm, around five to ten acres picked each year. I guess that is probably a decent price, so what do ya all think? I'm new here, so perhaps there is a b...

This last weekend in Monona Iowa there was a 234 on a trailer with the husking bed and sheller attachement. At first I thought the load was going to scrap, but seemed to be stacked too nicely on the trailer for scrap. Just wondering if it is for anyone here? Jim

Any reason as to why IH sold around 14,000 1-PR pickers between 1953-74 and only around 1500 2-PR during the same period? 2-row mounted IH pickers were just that popular with farmall owners and competition for 2-row pull-types was so tight that IH couldn't sell to non-IH tractor owners?

I thought I would scan in and post a brochure I just picked up at the Sioux Falls Toy Show this weekend - a brochure for the Oliver #4 2-Row Corn Picker.

Today's brochure is something that you probably have not seen very often - a Case 426 2-Row Mounted Corn Picker. If someone has one of these or knows anything else about these pickers, please share it with us! Otherwise, enjoy the brochure! -- Edited by jdtom on Tuesday 9th of March 2010 04:32:36 PM

Since I went off on a tangent with last week's brochure, I thought I would continue in that direction today. You need something to get the ears from the wagon to the crib and the most common (and easiest) way is by using a flight elevator, or more specifically for today's brochure, a Kewanee elevator.

This weekend I saw a one row pull John Deere picker with left hand use. (From the highway, I'll stop back another day) Wasn't an 18 right hand use? Did they make 200's in the one row configuration?
