Yes, it's true, my 47 Farmall H is getting itchy all cooped up and paraded around once in awhile. She wants to work! I see these belt-driven tools (mostly only saws) at shows and all. What kind of tools/implements are there for belt driven machinery? Where do you get the machinery? Looking for another hobby for my tractor shows....put the old girl to work!

The bigger shows around here always have a Baker fan or two set up. Exhibitors are encouraged to belt their tractors to a fan for a workout. And a fan can really make 'em snort!

A PTO dyno - if you can locate one - is fun too. It also gives a tractor a workout, AND it will measure the actual horsepower the tractor delivers at the PTO.

They used to make corn shellers that were belt driven. Minneapolis Moline made a model "D" sheller that would be a nice load for that H of yours. All you need is to find someone to pick corn in the ear for you to shell!

Got a D MM sheller, my H plays with it @ +/-250 bu/hr. I'm looking for an R or a newer Model 1200, they will do 400 to 600 bu/hr, & I don't think the H will have any trouble with either of them. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)

The load depends a lot on how wet the corn is and in dry corn an H will defiantly play with a 1200 but if it is wet a 1200 will put a 560 Diesel to the test. Personally, I’d look for a 1210 over a 1200 as they had a swinging elevator that was much easier to get set up on a crib than the stationary 1200. The down side is that the drive for that elevator and dragline was more complicated and subject to needing more maintenance.

The most my dad ever got through the 1210 was about 900 bushel in just at an hour. The story goes that they set up on a crib, put a semi under the sheller and didn’t stop till the crib was empty roughly an hour later. I’m glad I wasn’t in on that one! :<)

I've got one of those saws sitting in the barn. Maybe you need it more than I do? Also have a New Idea hand-trip loader, came off an H. I was gonna mount it on my M, but then I saw one of these Farmhand setups. That's what I'm really after. Been trying to decide what to do with these two items, due to "spring cleanup." They probably ain't worth much anyway, and I balk terribly at scrapping good items. lol, that probably goes for most of us!

They also made belt driven feed grinders. Can't imagine there being much demand for them any more so they should be relatively cheap.

Jeff, someone posted a photo on here a while back that had a draw bar mounted pto driven Ice cream maker. Thought it was the coolest thing I have ever seen. Would love to have something like that. Ice cream would have to get purdy thick to stall out the old H though.

Did the guy make it himself? Sounds pretty cool.

Paul, funny you should mention the PTO ice cream freezer in response to a belt pulley question. The guy is adding (believe it or not) an Ice crusher to go on the pulley! He's not decided whether it will be just for the ice cream freezer or to add snow cones to the offerings. I'll post pictures when he solves the engineering. My nickel Dick Davis
