dowel and tennor detail

long view of jackson forks
mounted on ridge rail, the forks could pick
up a load of hay in the middle and then deliver it to any
part of the barn

close up view of the jackson forks
the short rope would have been part of the trip

|
|
punge or manue spreader
not in good shape with a range of parts and
some metal artifacts

sorghum chopper
we are seeing the output view, the stalks would
be fed from the other side, this needs a better photo, all
mechanicals appear to be in place, perhaps it was used for
cracking corn for stock?

mangle chopper
mangles were large, turnip family vegetables
grown to be fed to cattle, not in good shape but all parts
appear to be there
|
|
|
sod cutter and potato digger
both in reasonably good shape, need to pull
out for better photos
|
|
|
potato digger handle
the metal "runners" on each side were attached
to all walking implements, at the end of a row the implement
would be pulled out, tipped on its side to slide on these
"runners" until lined up again to go back down the next row
|
|
|
hand cranked forge
possibly pre 1940s but not likely part of Boyd
time frame, however the forge tools are all hand forged and
possibly much older
