    The best combine for small scale farmer

    We had a K for a number of years and jumped up to a F3 a few years ago. I am still shocked at the difference in that combine vs the K. Don't get me wrong the K was great but the F3 is more than you think it would be. Defiantly get something with a power fold auger. I highly recommend a F2 or...

    using an ac 72 all crop for flax

    We put in an acre of it a few years ago and actually took it standing with our 72. I thought it did a nice job, if you have any holes in the machine you will find them! I know the 60 and 66 combines required flax rollers. Not sure if ones could be fitted on a 72 or if that feeder beater will...

    Allis Chalmers corn picker

    I have a parts picker. I can see if the paddles are in decent shape. Send me an email and I will give you my phone number. The picker in the pictures is not a 35. The model 35 had the paddle feeder in the throat, the early models were just known as the "One Row Corn Harvester". Jim...

    Farm show

    I always loved reading the best and worst buys. Most of the time the people were doing completely unrealistic things with the machines and complained when they broke and the company wouldn't stand behind the product. I remember one case where a hobby farmer bought a 706, he complained how it...

    15% ethanol gas ?

    Dear Abby

    I was wondering if someone would put a link to the John Prine song! Love John Prine's song writing. As for the discussion, my wife gets a little upset with me when I want to go to a tractor show, but in her defense we have two little ones. Im waiting for the day I can take them along and...

    Gleaner gurus please.

    Im not sure how it will work on a bean head but I traded in a M2 one time where the customer was combining corn with it. He had a 3000 hugger head that made work with it. I never did see how the drive worked, yes it was offset but didn't seem to bother him. He ran it that way for 5-6 years...

    Case Threshing machine

    You were only 5 miles away from me! I knew the previous owner. Every sale he went to he bought something. He saved a lot of threshing machines from scrap. I didn't make it to the sale but did make it there the day before to look at stuff. How did the threshers sell? I fear that they would...
