- Prior to the perfection of the spring sheller in the 1850's, corn was removed from the ears by hand, a time consuming task.
This hand-powered sheller was built in the 1860's. It uses a feeding wheel to push the ears into a picker wheel. The picker wheel has numerous nibs protruding from its side. The spring holds the ear against the nibs, which push the kernels from the ear.
The corn kernels fall out the bottom of the machine and the bare cobs are spit out the back.
oh and the dogs and chickens are a fun addition!
My dad worked at goulds. Its at the end of my grandmas street in seneca falls.
very cool, wow! LIncoln was president! Hey, do you have a mic attached to you?
Nice tubes! exc, spiders & bugs!! lol
The chickens and dogs were not part of my original plan. The dogs' photo bombing and the chickens' cackling was serendipity... or could it have been synchronicity?
I'm using the internal microphone on the camera. I usually edit my audio tracks to improve the sound, but it would be a lot better if I got a remote wired mike.
