| I bought a new idea 310 corn picker last weekend. Has anyone hear ever use one before. Is it a good unit? Also any suggestions on week points in the picker. |

| I've never used a 310 but I've used the later 324's which is a 2 row and had the super picker upgrades which added capacity and husked a little better. The new idea's were at the top of the picker class. Only issue is that some of the older ones have a little trouble in really high yielding corn. You might have to go a little slow. |

I have a new idea (AVCO) 325 with supersheller. Used it for 5 years now with no problems. I do keep it shedded by taking off the grain auger. Corn comes out very clean. |

| Does anyone know of a good place to look for parts? The outside snoot is beat up and missing the toe. |

http://www.farmshow.com/a_article.php?aid=25011" rel="nofollow - http://www.farmshow.com/a_article.php?aid=25011 Check out this article. It features Country Machinery that makes new snouts, finger wheels, and rebuilding rolls. Seem like reasonable prices. I talked to them a couple years ago about snouts but didn't end up buying the picker that needed them. Country Machinery 609 Musser School Rd Leola, PN 17540 717-656-9733 |

Agco dealers are limited to old stock as to what they can order. |

I hear Murn Tire and Tool in Dodgeville has a lot of parts. I have driven through their lot, big salvage inventory. http://myplace.frontier.com/~mtnt/index.html" rel="nofollow - Murn Tire ------------- An open eye is much more observant than an open mouth |

I had a New Idea 324 2-row for about 10 years that I bought new and sold it for about $4500.00. Did some custom work with it after mine was picked. A good machine other than some butt shelling at the snapper rolles. A friend near me put several hundred acres per year through a 325 3-row with a sheller on it. |
