How many of you saw the Pawn Stars episode with the 'corn shucker' last evening?
They went to this guy's house to look at a contraption the guy called a 'corn shucker', which really was an old hand crank corn sheller. He had an ear of corn in his hand and he said "you drop it into the top of the shucker". "Then you crank the handle and it takes the kernals off of the cob and they fall out the bottom".Then he said "it cleans the cob right up and you throw it to the pigs". He said "they love the cob and they eat it right up". He never did explain what you do with the corn. That's when I flipped the channel. I didn't wait to see if they wanted to buy it.

We never had one, but an old bachelor neighbor had one beside the crib that he used to shell corn for the hogs. When I was a kid I'd walk to his place just to crank his sheller for him. He made me quit when the bushel basket was full. That's all he needed for the day so the cranking had to stop. Jim
