We're buying a few loads of corn off a neighbor, so I was hauling w/ the Ollie 1855 and my dad was unloading w/ the Massey 285 on the blower and 165 on the wagons. On the second load, the blower blew up. One of the paddles let go and put a few good gouges in the band, then put a 2 1/2-3' gash in the pipe. My dad was just by the blower adjusting the band trying to get the "tick" out before it blew, said he just walked away when he saw sparks. By then it was too late. Just lucky it didn't let go a few seconds sooner...

Than God everyone is ok! When those fly apart, it's not good.
