Kinda neat.

Nice! I occasionally go to the local steam museum when they have a farm demo. Fun stuff to watch.

I went to the Threasers convention evry year when walking wasnt a problem for me. Really enjoyed seeing the old steam traction engines, Hit and miss power plants and the old equipment from that era. On a good year wheat is out and the work ground with them, thrash wheat and cut wood.

That was fun to watch. For sure they didn't have power steering.

At first, I thought it was a historical video with surprisingly good video quality.

Then the chase car appeared!

Nice equipment.

Now check out this one. It was one of the suggested videos when the above video finished:

It is easy to lose when your leader is a madman, a fool, or a traitor.

Last time I was out wallaby hunting was on a property the owner of which has a family traction engine. He and his brother shipped it from NZ to the UK for the Dorest show a few years back and he showed me the video. Absolutely HUGE fair. You'd need a week to take it all it.

No power steering for sure! Spin the wheel Lad, spin the wheel hard.

If Dorset is to far away for some of you try Rough and Tumble Engineer's Historical Association in South East Pennsylvania. Thresherman's Reunion (over for this year) is the largest steam and gas engine show east of the Mississippi. Coming up Oct.10 -11 is the Time of Harvest show, smaller show but plenty to see.
