My grandfather had an exceptional hardy used IHC shedder stored in the machine shed for years. It was used on occassion when we cut and shocked corn to separate the grain from the fodder. We used it to blow the fodder up in the barn loft and was fed during the winter like hay. We had a couple of really bad drought years 1950's and I remember the fodder was about all we had for winter forage for the the cattle. My uncle gave the shredder away to someone years ago to free up the space in the machine for other equipment which was used and needed more at the time. It was certainly a very nice unit last time I saw it and looked next to new in it's bright red paint even in the 1960's when I last saw it. The shredder was the harvester equipment to the corn crop that was cut with a corn binder. Hope this helps with the understanding of it's use as a corn thashing machine at least in this part of the country, Hal.
