This is one way cream is separated from fresh raw milk. The separator is from the 1930's but the technology is very similar to the cream separators made today using centrifuging to spin off the denser milk.
Thanks for posting this video...we just got an antique cream separator and it is fascinating watching how these machines work...got some repair to do to the one we got.
Great video! You look so good doing that! I love farm girls and watching you do that is something that so many have walked away from because they think its just to much work. We also have an old DeLaval cream separator and its used often. Make another video but have your hair down when you do it!
Hello Rebecca,God bless your great work. I have just bought an Original Meys Dido Milk Separator Model D. It is a vintage german milk separator on a wooden board which needs to be screwed onto a table or bench. There isn't an instruction manual with it,I wonder if your separator might be very similar to mine,just yours looks bigger.I hope all is well? God bless from Ireland
Great video. I also have a McCormick Deering separator. If anyone knows of a place, I am looking for a cream shelf and also the nut on top of the centrifuge.
This is why people were in shape back in the old days.
That's a De Laval cream separator. The bowl looks a lot like a model #12, or around that model. That's such a beautiful machine.
Great job Rebecca! Those old cream separators are a lot of work, especially in the heat! Thanks for sharing, you handled it like a pro. :)
Thanks - reading a book where the character in 1934 used a milk separator - appreciate you putting this on CZcams for us to see how it works
Very cool! Thanks for sharing! Took me back to the '60s when my grandmother in southern Alberta had one on their little farm.
I broke into a slight sweat just watching...Well done, love your hard work!
Lovely nice old barn and love your cows!

That is a lot of work, it would keep a person quite fit.
You did a great job, kept going till the end.
Looks like a McCormick-Deering machine

Very cool. Just picked up an old Montgomery Ward cream separate. I can't figure out how it works.
I hear Morse Code mixed in with your video.
your awesome!

That's pretty cool if you ask me...love that barn!
We have one in the basement……but electric!
Very cool! I hope to get one soon.
can tell she doesn't run that separator every day. Why would you have this machine in the barn and not in the milk house away from dirt and flies?
Maybe, as someone said, you can tell she dosent do it everyday, BUT I Wager, she did it a lot 20yrs ago.

Necesitas la tuerca tengo dos en honduras
I am using a smaller one like yours. lol
Really, I am trying so hard to work out how to put one back together - does the manual state this?
I thought her arm was going to fall off
