At least it was saved from the other junk man a few years ago. I loaded some leftovers and took to town. They unloaded it a little different.

Those rotary mowers looked in better shape than the one i use. Next time if i were you i'd dissassemble that rotary hoe. People will pay big bucks for each of those blades to make artsy crap to paint and hang on the wall.

Was that second item off the truck an A-C rotary mower?  I'd like to find one of them.

Stick to saving stuff. I know scrap yards are a evil we must live with, but the sight of them in action still makes me ill. I saw alot of stuff I would love to have on those piles in the backround. Saw a few items on your load I would have saved yet.

That was a 5" Woods. I sold the gears and shaft, off it lasr summer. The deck was broke and cobbled up. I kept the tale wheel for  if and when someone needs it.

Gotta give it to the shear operator. Steady hands. Never saw him get into the bed on the truck at all, and hardly shook it. Scrap yards are a necessary evil. Just don't want to see any orange tractors in there. Green and red ones maybe, but no orange. LOL!

I didn't do it! It was a short, fat, tall, skinny guy that looked like me!

That was not a gate. It was a 20' Harrogator, all wornout ans rusted, would cost more to repair than it would be worth.
The thing hanging on was a hayrake.  Some kind of Euorpen thing, 3pt with pto drive. It had the teeth mounted between two V belts , that ran crossways. It looked like it might have been about a 1/2 good idea at one time.

Machine eats machine --- guy was good. Next question, how did you get it all loaded in the first place?

I loaded it with my New Holland 783 skidloader.
It took less time load and hull than it took to make and upload the video.

Ive ran a Cat 345 quite a bit and I can tell you that they are smooooth! Hey, there must be something wrong with me. I wanted about half of that load to keep! And yes, I sell rotary hoe wheels for 8 bucks a piece. They are moneymakers!

sometimes I walk out to my shop and look around and think "Who's the idiot that owns this place?"
