The “cleaner” on the coulter of the plow was always called a “jointer”. May not be right, but that’s how I heard it. They started the dirt to roll over, to help cover trash. A company named “Lantz” is the maker I have usually seen. But I image there could be other makers. Probably OEM made them to. Hard to say anymore. Many times the manufacturers name or emblem is stamped in the plow beam. Not always easy to see anymore. Wheel hub areas are good places to look for a maker emblem too.
Good finds of some oliver plows there i do know oliver was the biggest in plows when they started in South Bend IN and after WW1 they had scaled up with plans to put out 750,000 plows since IH and Ford were cranking out tractors in a big way .. I know estimates were made in 1919 and later years of 250,000 tractors being sold every year
Good day Yes I think too it is Oliver. Neighbors used some like that & put a seat on & plough with horses. Thanks Could be interesting sale, I think it's Amish sale, they seem to bid better because it's already on steel wheels Thanks
That cleaner on the coulter is interesting, we have one of those cleaners and did not know what it was or what it came off. Lots of interesting equipment
That has to be the first auction you've posted with all good equipment. I'd be a bidding fool at that place, running around like Daffy Duck when he's having a loony fit. Love it!!
I’ve bought a lot of Oliver trailer plows through the years and those look like Oliver’s to me! Now I’ve seen a certain side I’m confident they’re Oliver’s
Yep. Oliver. I had one and one of the rollers in that gear on the wheel got stuck and rooster comb would slip off and drop the plow when you were trying to lift it. Then the arm wouldn't cock in the up position. The fix was clean and free up the stuck roller and put three washers under that little coil spring. That made that comb snap back up and catch like it supposed to.
Red one looked Moline to me. I plowed with a Moline. Better than Oliver. When we finished plowing, we always took a paint bush and painted used motor oil on the moldboards. Eaglegards...
From historymuseumsb.org In June 1857, James Oliver received his first patent, Number 76,939.1 It covered the essential features of the chilled iron plow and in February of the following year, he was granted another patent that covered the unique chilling process, which Mr. Oliver had developed.2 By 1868 the small Oliver factory was incorporated and renamed as the South Bend Iron Works. The stockholders of this newly formed company included George Milburn (of the Milburn Wagon Company, Mishawaka, Indiana), his son-in-law Clement Studebaker (of the Studebaker Manufacturing Company), and a few other important businessmen of South Bend.
They sure do look like Olivers. We have 2 of those a 4 bottom and a 5 bottom. We have a #7 fertilizer spreader but ours is on rubber. Some balers did have engines, typically 2 cylinder Wisconsins. The John Deere baler may well have had an engine originally, but not a Honda.
can not tell you about the plow but that disk looks like a John Deere set made for horses. I have a set like it and at one time I looked up the model several years ago and I guess I need to again to see if I can get parts.
Oliver 100 Plowmaster. Get that plow! Shoot, both of them. They pull beautiful. I know, I've had one for better than 30 years. Guarantee that H won't know it's back there in 4th. Well, shine up them bottoms first....
Grandpa's had a plow like that probably 50 years ago he pull behind a Farmall H it did a good job for back then I think of how much more work forming was back then of course I remember Dad saying he used to plow the fields with the horse that would have been about 1936
What State is this in? Is the auction over? I'm interested in the thrashing machine. That hay bailer looks 👀 like a John Deere 14T. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
dad used to have one of those in the barn when I was a kid but I don't know what happened to it when he sold the farm edit his was the McCormick if I can remember right I was in like 4th grade that would have been like 1964
