I know its not farm equipment, but this is the installation of an Allis Chalmers crusher from back in the early 50's.  This is at "Stoneport" which is part of Holcim which is a swiss company. This is NOT Calcite, one of largest open pit limestone quarries in the world in Rogers City, MI, but a smaller quarry located in Presque Isle, a few miles south off of US 23. The plant is still in operation, as is the crusher. 

Experience is a fancy name for past mistakes. "Great moments are born from great opportunity"

Can you imagine the size of the wrench that tightens the nut on that shaft LOL?
