Scrapping a Thresher
The Case thresher thread made me think about this a little bit. The pics of the separator in that thread don't look like much and there is a decent chance that this machine should go for scrap. If someone were to scrap a threshing machine what parts should be saved to help keep others running?

Re: Scrapping a Thresher
Hey all,
I'd pull (well, more like torch out) the cylinder - as long as there was decent life left in the teeth! If the adjustable sieves were not rotten, I'd pull them, too. Have a good one, Colt

Re: Scrapping a Thresher
The North Central Kansas Flywheelers in Salina, Kansas put on a show every summer. Of the many activities put on one is threshing wheat with a Keck Gonerman thresher sometimes pulled with a steam engine that belongs to the museum. A couple years ago a hitch pin was accidently forked in and the 2concaves with teeth were broke. I welded one for them but the other is in 50 pieces. I could weld it but the one in 10 pieces took me 6 hours. I don't know for sure if the machine is a 28" but the concave measures 28" overall.. Where should I start looking?
 Any input would be appreciated. Back to the Shadows of Biffalo Bill.

Re: Scrapping a Thresher
Andy, I save the weigher along with all the other parts everyone else has mentioned. The elevator belt was gone out of my Kitten separator when I got it. I couldn't find one or borrow one to fit. Making all those little buckets was pain!
I'd probably save the wind stacker too. I've seen a lot that were really beat up. Alan

Re: Scrapping a Thresher
If you think they would have any KG concaves 28" long I'd be interested...Give me a phone #, name, or some way/where to check with them. Thank You.
