Hey guys!!
So, Im glad the binder video yesterday was a hit, heres the next video I shot at the show!! I still have a few more to post...
Anyway, this video is of a McCormick husker/shredder that is estimated to be, right around 100 years old. The guys at the show found it in a barn, bought it for next to nothing, put new belts on it, "and it worked". lol.
So, now its one of the main attractions at the show, and its a beast for sure. Still has original paint, original metal, original wheels, etc. It shakes the ground around it, especially with the help of the straight-piped Rock Island tractor running it.
I also got a few shots of down inside the machine as it was working, its all in the video.
All I can say, is that this was one of the most fun videos I've gotten to make since I started my channel so I hope you guys enjoy it, and also, if you've ever wondered why farmers back in the day were walking around with missing body parts and had a life expectancy of like 50, well, machines like this are why. lol.
