Lincoln vintage harvest

[@melvis2017]

Great job beautiful old days greetings from Copenhagen denmark

[@rockyfitzp]

Thank you very much!

[@rexross7086]

I've lived in spokane for 20 years and never had the chance to go see this

[@stephensaasen8589]

Love the sight of that old John Deere 36B operating. I used to live over near Waukon south of Reardan. We used to ride motorcycles over the county farm road between Magnusun and Hanning Buttes. On the west side, there was an old barn that had an old 36B inside it half sunk in the dirt. The barn sat at the bottom of a draw. Would have loved to have found the owner and got it running again. It had the old Hansen leveler on it and everything. Brings back memories. That was about 1990 - 1995 that I saw that old machine.

Great video - cool old combines -AWESOME!

[@rockyfitzp]

thank you

[@georgewomack8260]

I don't see how the world 43 people could give this beautiful video a thumbs down

[@trackhoe23]

Thanks for not drowning out the sounds with music. Love to hear machines work.

[@davidshumski4629]

I like the counter weight they have on the platforms.

[@leekoontz7541]

Very nice, glad to see them work.

Been searching for videos of these old harvesters just like this! We pulled ours with a cat D7. My dad and grand dad had built a sun shade over the header control wheel because it was just too hot in central California not too ! When I was 14 in the 70's I learned how to drive moving the grain truck from one side of the field to the other for unloading. We stored the barley in Butler bins to sell in winter!

[@bodryn]

In Minnesota we called this "straight combining", when you cut it and harvest it at the same time. We always swathed before we combined. Our first combine was an Oliver combine with a John Deere engine; we pulled it with a 1937 John Deere model A.

Супер. Хорошие Американские машины.

[@ronnieg6358]

What a wonderful sight wish I'd been there!

[@skn9895]

I would love to restore one of those old combines someday. There is a Minneapolis Moline and two Baldwin pull type combines a couple miles away from me, but the guy won’t do anything with them or sell them. Sad.

[@rbharvesters7404]

That is a shame when people do that. Some interesting old machines have gone to scrap because people just rather let them sit and rot than let them go to good use. I have two Gleaners A's in England. A 1960 one and a 1964 one both working originals. They were built over here at the Allis factory in Lincolnshire. The factory was actually the English Minneapolis Moline combine factory. I would like to see an MM combine. The combine collectors here have been looking for one for years but apparently none left. Reported to have been excellent combines.

[@microbusss]

pretty cool this is why the motorized combine was invented Does a modern combine do a better job than these or what?

[@rockyfitzp]

some of these type combines did a great job even compared to new ones. Like all machine makes a lot of difference on the time and care of setting it up right.

[@BrianDHoefs]

I’ve never seen a combine like that. If they were windrowing that straw, it would make a lot of bedding.

[@rustyrelicsfarm2406]

with all 3 of these machines you can still do a lot of work with these.

[@russvoight1167]

Lots of grease fittings to find!

[@rockyfitzp]

Yes indeed!

[@defuse56]

Behind the cutter bar and the reel, there's a big long boom with some circular weights or something on the end of it. What were these for? Something to do with balance? Thanks, just curious. I'm an old guy and have run some old combines, but these babies look old even to me!

[@chrishedding8758]

it's a header balance beam

[@defuse56]

Thought it must be something like that! Is the control for it the wheel the guy on the platform is turning? Or is that something else?

[@rockyfitzp]

@@defuse56 yes the beam is hinged at the combine fram and extends under the header. It then removes much of the weight which otherwise would have to be lifted by the rack and pinion (the big wheel) that the guy is turning to lift the header. The header is moved up and down to keep an even flow of heads and straw going into the combine. Usually as little as needed to just cut all the heads of wheat off the stalk. It may not look like the height of the heads vary much but they do.

[@defuse56]

@@rockyfitzp Ok, that makes sense! Thanks! Live and learn, eh?

[@lukchohner]

Hello! How many HP have machines on this combines? Thank you!!!

[@lukchohner]

How many horse powers has engine on the combine:)

[@rockyfitzp]

Don't think much more than 35 horse power

[@Grabatire]

I sure agree with trackhoe, nice to hear the machines. Just can't understand why some folks go to all the work of making a great video, then ruining it with some noise.

[@rockyfitzp]

Davenport Washington, it is also on the video in black lettering along with date and who sponsers the event.

[@jhonmariosanchez9849]

Eeeuuuu

[@listonoszpat233]

To w Ameryce też były kołchozy ? :-)

[@ukaszlewandowski5041]

Duże farmy raczej

[@tucnytulen4008]

Pekné vecičky ktoré sú jak na farme v Mengusovce!😏

[@rockyfitzp]

[@Пшек-м1э]

Старые машины, круть. Прицепной комбайн. Трактор на угле.

[@rilindtba1605]

Maybe he mean about PS

[@mackthompson1161]

have you ever seen such a waste of diesel in your life

[@kyledombrowski7051]

Only in the machines that feed you, jackass

[@daveheine1409]

BURRRN

[@lonelyfarmer3486]

It takes a lot of diesel to do any job and some people ain't got big machience

[@bigwheel6533]

I can almost guarrantee the mule engines were gasoline or power fuel.

[@corywatland3417]

This guy is just getting roasted
