I hauled an old cultivator out of "the back 40". It's about 100 years old - rather rusted - yet people caution me that someone may steal it for their lawn orniment! Has any body had such a problem??

i would be more worried that someone would take it for scrap iron. there isnt a lot of money to be had in scrap iron but with the way today's world is, one never knows.

Philipp,

I have had horse drawn equipment in working condition in my yard for the last 4 years with no problems with things being stolen. Then again, I'm known as "the crazy army guy" to the kids in town so nobody bothers me much.

I haven't heard of people stealing for lawn ornaments, but I have seen some strange behavior over them.

Was at an estate auction about a year ago. There was an old dump rake that was in reasonably good condition. I wanted it so I can pull hay down off some of my steep hills and bale at the bottom, figured maybe $50 would get it.

Wellll, some yuppies were there looking for a lawn ornament. I quit bidding around $85, but the thing eventually sold for something like $400! So I guess I don't wonder if anybody would steal one.

Money Making Ideas!

Make some cheap reproductions on the old implements, make them look old, stick a fake DEERE, J.I. CASE, or IH seat on it and sell them in the city for lots of money (delivery extra?). Would be a good suppliment income during the dry seasons!

in fancy clothes, never saw 'em before or since.

I'd still buy a good dump rake, but my price hasn't gone up any 'cuz I'm just plain cheap. :-)
