This is an old potato sorter by Cooch and Sons Ltd of Northampton, England.
This would make a fabulous exhibit at a vintage rally, powered by a stationary engine. The engine would have to drive through a reduction gearbox or a series of belts and pulleys to drive the sorter at a hand cranking speed. Get some assorted taters or maybe different sized balls and let the sorting commence! A bowler hat will be an essential accessory for the demonstration!!
