| Thanks for the photos. I've heard that sitting inside this machine left you "buzzing" at the end of the day. How was it to run? How did it work for you? |

| Nice to see some of those older Case pickers still going. Mounted pickers were not very popular here in Central NY. too many hills and usually lots of mud in the fall, or snow. I bet your glad the temp was decent rather than 20F with wind and snow in your face. Looks like a long ways from one end to the other.Loren |

| Very cool! I used to pick 5-600 acres a year with a DC and 325/327 New Idea picker, but never saw a mounted picker work. Sure would like to see one working in person. Don |

| Never picked corn in my life until two weeks ago my friend needed help fixing his picker. After we got it fixed I rode with him to the end of the row where the pic-up was parked. He has a farm-all picker with the husking bed behind the driver and one elevator. Is this a CASE picker? Are you able to shut down each elevator as you turn at the end of the rows? 61 and still learning. gobble |
