Another interesting segment. Isn't it amazing how people back then found a way to make their lives easier without electricity? Many call it the simpler life but they truly worked harder than we ever thought about.
My grandfather had a clipper that was a little newer. It was like brand new. He had a pile of different seaves for it. At one time they put an electric motor on it. Wish I had it today.
I love watching your videos. I came over from Perma Pasture Farms. It is really impressive to see how you bring these pieces of equipment back to life. These types of equipment and your skills will be highly prized when there is NO electrical power to run things. You are a great teacher. Keep going
Only recently came across your channel and have been going thru your past videos. Started with v1. I noticed on this one you turned the hand crank counter clockwise. This seems unusual.
Thank you for watching my channel Ron. No reason other than I musta been in a counter clockwise mood, ha ha. This cleaner will run either way. Thank you, I hope you enjoy!
I got curious and googled to see what 1A had looked like. 😄 I didn’t find it but did go down a rabbit hole and saw a bunch of models including the modern ones. It’s crazy how they have evolved so much but still pretty much do the same thing as the old ones. There’s a neat little pdf on the history of the company on the website too that’s a pretty interesting read! Thanks for showing us the neat machine!
Ha ha that sounds like something I would do ! Yeah they have came a long way . Thanks for sharing Lea ! I’m sowing mustard greens in the next day or two…when you sowing yours ?
I actually planted a bunch about a week ago in a partly shady bare spot I had. I planted some more today that will get more sun so I hope they do ok in the heat we have. Since I just have small patches here and there to throw seeds in, I am getting pretty good at succession planting so I have stuff I can pick as long as possible. I will do that cut and come again method like your friend taught you but you can never have enough mustard greens. I also planted a bunch of turnips because I love their greens too. 😋 I think that is the newer model I saw a demonstration video for that made me realize how similar the design still is to that older one. I still think that’s pretty neat that the overall design and function hasn’t changed much.
@@metcalfmills5679: Mine are going in this coming week, along with turnips and Daikon radishes, plus a few other radish seeds I have, too. Anything special I should know? Never planted them before. Because it has taken so long for me to get the garden ready, planting is way late. We could use a few good rains here, yet Waverly flooded last week. Crazy weather patterns around here. Some of these seeds will have to wait until next spring.
Hey Justin that is cool. I love how that agitation is caused offset shaft. This is all being done by agitation gravity and airflow. Were these owned by farmers or only by the mills? Thank you blessings bye now
Thats a really cool deal to see how this ancient machine works. It looks like a useful tool that I hope doesn't get to be in much higher demand if you know what I mean. Are you looking to restore it, so that the seed inlet is even, or is the originalité of more concern? Thank you for the show.
Has it been in your family for many years? Any back-story about this device? Do you still use it? I wonder how much it cost when it was new. It’s fascinating how it all operates from a single hand crank.

Yeah they sure did Belinda. Thats one reason why they were healthier I would bet !

That is very interesting to see how these machines work, your efforts in putting all this together is appreciated. Thank you Justin.
Glad you are enjoying. Thanks Glenn !
Awesome! I miss my Grandpa- he always had the coolest gadgets like this.

PPF is great ! Thank you for sharing and thank you for watching ! I try, hope you enjoy.
Love it, thanks Justin!
Thank you for watching !!
That wire is called the agitator wire and is supposed to go up into the hopper to help pull seed through the gate.
Thank you for sharing this with us! I will have to do a correction on that. I appreciate you letting us know
No worries good video.
That’s awesome!
Thanks brother !!
Amazing how hard work and simple ideas did the job just fine..now? If it's not electric and automatic (no labor) no One uses it..curious.thanks
I hear ya LR. Simple is always best it my opinion. Thanks you !

And I have a Clipper M2B cleaner that I use .

That’s great Lea C ! I thought about sowing some turnips also. Thank you for sharing !
And yes a good design will stick around for sure !

These were made for farmers but could have been used by mills. Hope you enjoyed, thank you for watching. Blessings to you too !
Big money in native seeds
😃 Very cool and beautiful! Will this come back to you? Have you ever used it with your seed? Thank you very kindly.
No this one is being used somewhere else!
Thank you

I know what you mean. No it went to a new home where it will be used as is. Thank you for watching !

No I have only had it a couple years. No story. It went to another home. Yeah they had it figured out !
