I went and looked at the thresher again today. I found some of the flat belts stored inside the machine and appeared to be in excellent shape. I didn't find the main drive belt with them however. Does anyone know where the serial number plate is on this machine. It is a Wood Brothers. I measured the cylinder and came up with 20 inches. Does this sound right?? I didn't think to measure the throat though. If anyone has information about this machine i would be more than happy to hear it. Thank you all for you help!!! Brandon

You didnt find the drive belt because sombody probably cut it and made a hammermill belt and a buzz saw belt out of it. Yo say the Cyl is 20in then its a small one. You also didnt say if it was made of wood or steel. You also didnt say if it had a divider board in between the apron, but if it is onkly 20in wide it wouldnt have. If it is a 20in wide cyl, trhen you can power it with any tractor with 20hp or more. Although the belts male look good, theyve been stored in a circle for so long, chances are when you go to use them theyll fall apart do to dry rot. Never know tho, but try them long befpore you intend to use it either for yourself or in public so that if they do indeed fall apart youve got time enough to get new ones. Also put this on in the room sos all can see it with the answers to the questions I ask

20 inches is what i came up with on the cylinder, unless I measured it wrong. It is made of steel. There is no divider board that I can see in the apron. I plan on trying to run it with a 10-20 McCormick Deering. I will check the belts to make sure they will work before we start threshing. It doesn't have the bagger attachment on it either. thanks for all your help.. when I find out more about the thresher i'll post what i find. Brandon

Did you measure the actual length of the bar or the total opening for the cylinder, length of bar plus 1" clearance for each end of cylinder, 20" + 2" = 22" total, sounds like the one that our local machinery club has, 10-20 should handle it fine, the one that our club has was at one time run with a LA John Deere, less power

I think they only made one size 22", Fordson tractor could handle them, Wood Bros. later became Dearborn, then Ford

Brandon: Finding all the belts with the exception of the main drive belt is common. Most farmers used that same belt to drive their feed grinders, bench saws, etc. Take a look for other belt driven implements on property. You may find the belt. Sorry I cant help with thresher, I grew up on combines.
