Don't want to hijack Randy's Christmas, thread so I'll start a new one.
Any of you as tractor crazy as a kid as I was??
Beside my "tillage" work in Mom's garden with the 400 and the 620, I had a model JD 14T baler. I would cut grass with a set of grass cliipers and actually turn the flywheel on the baler by hand and bale the grass, tie it by hand at the end of the bale chamber with string and stack them on a wagon, run them up a JD hay elevator into the hay mow in my toy barn, throw them down the hay chute and open them to feed my toy cows.
I didn't have a toy forage harvester, but I did have a pull type combine and a cast iron threshing machine that belonged to my father as a child, and used those as my forage harvesters. Would cut the "silage" in the wagons (and an IH dump truck with a working lift and tail gate) with a pair of Mom's sewing scissors and then "blow" it into the silo at my toy barn. All of this was done with the proper accompanying sounds effects, of course........... Also ended up with a tandem dump truck and had an old steam shovel that was my fathers also, teamed with a JD 420 dozer with a blade. Did a lot of logging, dirt hauling and road building in the garden with those. That, and my model train set accounted for the happiest days of my youth.
Certainly wouldn't have had time for a computer even if they had existed then and wouldn't have wanted one.
