The only reason they are hard to fix is that the parts are no longer available, but anyone with some mechanical means could fix most of the problems as these were simpler machines from a simpler time. Make mine steam any day!

Great machines and people!

[goldeneye4564]

just 2 problems with these old things,

1. When they break- they are hard to fix.

and 2. it takes you a whole day to do one row of a field ffs/

why were they feeding the thresher from the belt side tho?

its way more safe on the other side, we bail hay down near dunville, ontario for "marshville"

Excellent show I have been to many of these shows around Nebraska and Iowa and It looks like this show is very similar. Thanks for the video. Good composition.
