953 nut 59,912 #7 Posted November 21, 2016 Growing up we had a bit larger unit that shelled and cracker the corn, it was powered by a goat on treadmill. I wish I had a picture of that operation, Every Saturday that was one of my chores; gather corn from the bin, get the goat in place and convince her she was going to get those carrots. Life was good! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
