I have a New Idea corn husker that I bought several years ago. it is stored in a corn crib that (hopefully) does not have a leaky roof. I have wood under the steel wheels to prevent them from sinking into the ground. I don't expect to get it out anytime soon to run it. It has always been stored inside and appears to be in fine condition. What should I do to keep it in good condition until the time comes when I can get it out to enjoy it? I want to make sure it stays around, because the Deering hay loader I bought with it (wood slat) burned in a barn fire just after I bought it. I got to see the wheels fall from the top story :-( So, I want to be able to keep this around.

When I'm finished with the hay baler for the season I pressure wash it down, let it dry, and then spray it with a 50/50 mixture of motor oil and diesel fuel. It seems to work. John in NY

Do what it takes to keep mice out of it, the urine will rust metal like nobodys business.A friend says he keeps them out of his vintage cars with fabric softner sheets (for your clothes dryer) he packs it around places they enter the machine...they do not like the smell,I need to try something like this..but get it clean of anything they will eat or nest with,maybe some mouse bait packets would do the trick?
