The other guys posting here are also correct. My Great Grandad had a binder but no shredder. Dad, Grandpa & Great Grandpa would go out in the field and pull the ears by hand, then sit on the down wind side of the shock and husk the ears by hand with a " husking peg". That was a piece of leather that fit your hand with a metal hook riveted on that made it easier husk the ears. Now you are really up close and personal with every ear in the field. We didn't have have a "shredder" until Dad came back from the war. Going out and "tearing down" by hand was not one of his favorite jobs. Oh , they didn't get a tractor until '48. We still have the "Old Ford". I was about 4 or 5 when I was around to see the 2 roll IH in action. I've had to learn the rest from watching other folks, like the Amish around Sugar Creek Ohio, and reading, and trial & error. AND advise from the good folks here on YT. I'm 58 years old, born in '51. I am very lucky to have been old enough to remember my Great Grandad, Delbert Case, 1873-1958.
