Watching it in action at the end of the video, my mind is literally blown. Jaw dropped and everything!

[@darkicenoah654]

soooo elegant it is

[@vaclavkrpec2879]

This is truly genius peace of engineering. Only when I finally saw it in action, I fully understood how it worked. Now realise that somebody went and _imagined_ it, then made it. I do that for living---and I bow deeply to the inventor.

[@chadh3441]

Wow! I had no idea something like this even existed! What a magnificent piece of engineering and ingenuity! Excellent job on bringing this back to life and preserving it for future admiration.

[@allenwilson9656]

This is certainly an antique 70 to 80 years old , most likely before your time

[@jeffwhite6343]

My grandfather still uses one that was his dad's he feeds squirrels and deer in his back yard with the corn.

[@NiaJustNia]

@@allenwilson9656 the description says 1890, so it's at least 130 years old

[@norcaloutdoor5462]

me too

[@radrevere]

Another beautiful result! I especially loved watching this one do its work. I didn't expect it to turn the cob around and spit it back at you. Very cool device.

[@teresawelborn1360]

I found one of those in my grandpa's ole barn. I had horses at the time so my husband made a wooden box for the sheller.. He nailed the sheller on a board then nailed the board to the barn above the wooden box. The first time I saw that cob fly out I was amazed. I couldn't stop. The chickens, horses ,goats and crows all got corn that day. Wow yours looks good.

[@kentrellgaulden7890]

this is so wholesome

[@ferdinarghoshi4614]

It’s so nice that actually use the machine you restore

[@allrounder1695]

Old is gold. It's true. Even modern technology, robot can't make such device. What an engineering. This is called as real automation.

[@richardg1426]

This way better than American Restoration on TV none of the BS !

[@davepelfrey3958]

I used ours just like that plenty of times when I was a kid in the 60s and 70s in Kentucky. Had it mounted on a box in our corn crib. Worked great 👍.

[@Sw-nn6le]

These videos are so relaxing and make my OCD happy

[@lopaka76]

1st Nice job, great restoration. 2nd I've never seen one of those before. They make quick work of the corn.

[@1nervi]

Ну вот же! Круто и с наименьшими затратами. А выгладит просто великолепно!!!!!!!

[@bellyblister7867]

Wow, the mechanics of this are pretty awesome.

[@pistolannie6500]

AMAZING! Sometimes the old simple things are STILL the Best way! So Many things these days are just waayy over thought and over engineered.

[@veranet99]

I love how the bare cob ejects at the end.

[@PNWCagey-Dub]

I remember using these with my grandmother. Her sister, my great aunt, made corncob jelly. It was so good! This turned out amazing!

[@user-ru4xc4th4v]

Отличная машинка! Ею следует пользоваться и сегодня. Спасибо за восстановленный полезный агрегат.

[@orion8835]

Brilliant contraption well worth restoring.

[@renees766]

Whaaat??!! I mean, if that ain't the coolest thing, I don't know what is!

[@DougPoker]

Rusty Cornsheller sounds like a solid country music name

[@WilAdams]

The tool is amazing. Your talent and skill (like knowing you needed a blow torch when you were twisting that bolt) are amazing and laudable. For me, the one thing I found sad was when you sanded-off the wooden handle. All I saw was thousands of hours of prior owners' perspiration as they hand-cranked their way through hundreds of pounds and thousands of ears of dried corn. Thank you for sharing your gifts.

[@mladen040nk]

So satisfying video and that message "subscribe" make me do it immediately 😅👍🏼

[@a.m.v.6938]

1890’s ? When I was a kid growing up in the 70’s I remember having to go out and use one of these to make feed for our farm animals and that was after having to pick and dry the corn. Looking back now those were the best days of my life, how I miss those days. Thanks for the memories.

[@whatfreedom7]

I was thinking how does it work. That’s crazy. That’s a impressive design.

[@user-ln7di6uf7x]

That explains how my grandfather always had husked corn in one silo for cattle feed. Thanks for sharing. 👍😁🇨🇱🇺🇸

Dude! That is insane!

[@PyroMynx]

Wow! This is a nifty invention!

[@armindoalves551]

What a great engineering

[@lauriegermain5041]

That's so cool. One could make their own popcorn.. I would love something like that.

[@ronaldsteele6151]

WOW, never knew something like that existed nor ever seeing one. What an amazing appliance. I'm always saying what next will they think of and seeing something like this always answers that question. Great job

[@mikebetts5532]

awesome job. Time to make some popcorn..lol.🔨🪛⚒️🔧⛏️🛠️👍

[@armandeantattoo]

Now the owner will be able to enjoy a delicious corn kernel with paint residue 👍

[@drakecooley4776]

thats a brilliant piece of machinery, the way it grinds off the corn and spits out the cob, that was revolutionary at one time.

[@ThePotOwl]

you should of seen my face when that cob came out the other side what a spectacular piece

[@luciecomeau67]

Let dry and make a butter pop corn haha good restoration Mrs.

[@lindak8664]

I really need to know how the corn core did that little acrobatic trick at the end there. I thought it was going to spit out the bottom for sure! Also, I can’t tell you how much i need one of these doodads in my life 😆

[@goul20_20]

And it is really efficient, nice tool

[@angusmclaren6257]

What a cool device.

[@alfonsomunoz4424]

THAT was cool!

[@one7decimal2eight]

Reminds me what about bob when Bill Murray says..."this is scrumptious, is this corn hand shucked?" Hilarious line. I always ask it now whenever I eat corn at someones house.

[@2010Zanoza2]

Wow, this is excellent machine useful even now.

[@dalevodden1359]

Another perfect restoration that definitely looks heck of a lot better than the before picture and it works just like it's supposed to God bless my friend

[@jenniferford2481]

Ooooh, I like that!

[@GeorgeGiann]

Honestly, that’s ingenious…

[@allenwilson9656]

Typically it is supposed to be mounted on a wooden box 📦 to catch the corn 🌽 . You did an excellent restoration 👍

[@zeyno1369]

Its 02.45 am and now I can Sleep in peace knowing that something like this exists. Just went WAAAAT seeing it in action , what a cool piece of equipment wew.

[@TheGodsrighthandman]

I find it somewhat remarkable that these items are always so very 'rusty', yet that 'rust' is usually of a bright orange hue with very little patina - almost as if you spray them with some sort of rust-enducing substance, and the items themselves appear to have little to no pitting or scarring from such a heavy coat of 'rust' . . .

[@GameTimeWhy]

Why did you put "rust" in quotes?

[@TheGodsrighthandman]

@@GameTimeWhy Because, having used, worked on, and observed, rusty objects over many years due to various jobs I've had, I reckon there's a very high probability that the 'rust' on this object, and others this channel 'restores', has been artificially induced. It's too fresh - the bright orange colour denotes that, old rust is dark brown. The colour of the 'rust' is also too even. The 'rust' has no patina - old rust HAS patina - see above. There is virtually zero pitting of the metal underneath the 'rust'. You would expect, at the very least, that something THAT 'rusty' would have scarred the metal in some way, certainly I would expect a MUCH rougher surface for that much oxidisation. A basic solution to create 'rust' is two cups hydrogen peroxide to four tablespoons white vinegar, and one-and-a-half teaspoons table salt. This is sprayed onto a metal surface and, after some hours, 'rust' occurs.

Half of the joy viewing these restorations comes from getting to see these in action. They’re both impressive and interesting 😌❤️❤️

Wow it actually works

Amazing 👏 ❤❤❤😯 😮 😲

[@psychedelikchameleon]

What an interesting piece of equipment and it works so well! Lovely restoration!

[@help8help]

I would never have guessed what this thing is. It is an interesting machine.

[@SunshineRacette]

I inherited a rusty set of tools, I dropped them in a bucket of lime out over night. Then I rinsed them off the next day. Let them dry in the sun, took my cordless Dremel to them and finished polishing them with 3 in one oil. They look brand new, and as far as hands on goes, it wasn’t more than an hour of my time.

[@lancevanbeurden3184]

I like how it was all stuff anyone could do! No fancy machines needed - sand blasters, lathes or powder coating. Cool machine too!

[@SewFrancine6120]

Fabulous, I know it has been a blessing to many people tasked the job of shucking corn kernels. If these precious items you restore could talk oh the stories they could tell. New subscriber from Arizona 👍☮️👍💟👍✝️👍

WOW!! Another great restoration! Thanks for the demonstration at the end.👍

That is so cool! Can't believe that worked as well as it did!

[@arioscar9201]

Wow ....amazing ya...

[@chrisdaigle5410]

Us three boys would take making corn feed for the animals. One would turn the handle, a second would feed the corn and a third would manage the basket that caught the corn cobs while shucking the dried corn for the person feeding the corn into the machine. When both arms were tired, we rotated jobs until the feed corn bin was full.

[@Andrew-bi1qs]

It actually works pretty well. Pretty cool tool.

Wow neat. Never seen one of those!!! I love seeing old things restored!

[@randallw1977]

I've used one. A guy used his tractor as part of a belt driven corn grinder to make corn mill. He had some of these set up so you can have fun by getting kernels off the cob.
