Took a Sunday drive last weekend and saw this old hay press along the road.

Sorry for the double post, the first one said can't post because of an error-duplicate message so tried again under a different title. I have experienced several goofy things on this site the last couple weeks.

That should be saved, brought back to life. Tell us where it is, maybe someone can get it. Unless you have your eyes on it.

The best kind of rust photos... one in the wild.

Great pic. Thanks for posting it.

Why was the ram called a chinaman, on those old machines? That's what they were called when Dad farmed back in the day. Stan

When I was young, my uncle told me it was called a Chinaman because it was up and down, up and down, up and down, just like the Chinese farm workers in the produce fields.
