Back in the 1930's my uncle who is now 96 rigged this tractor to operate off the binder. They drove three miles before turning around. He made U Joints on the steering shaft out of leather.

That's what you do when you are short-staffed, you make do without somebody.
Just like the local WalMart stores.
 
My dad had a shaft that bolted onto steering wheel with knuckles and a shaft that reached into oat seeder wagon so he could seed oats and keep hopper full from the wagon.
 
I still have the steering wheel from the one my dad used in 1947 on the binder driving the H Farmall. Next year he decided I was old enough to drive the H. I have the H Farmall also. Neighbor used one for several years so kids could be shocking the grain while he cut.
 
Yeah like our Walmart in Jonesville and the Rural King in Angola......both are a melluvva hess since the holidays.......
 
This is how my Dad, Orie, baled hay when a tractor driver was unavailable. A V4f Wisconsin motor on the baler made it work easier (tractor did not have to be running wide open). I used it a couple times early in my career after Dad died. Steering wheel, brake on steering wheel, and pipe to clutch (end of a mower pitman clamped to ball of lever). Way better than nothing, only had to get off hayrack to change wire or wagon. src="http://forums.yesterdaystractors.com/photos/mvphoto12236.jpg"/>
