Finally got the Cider press built and ready to go. Put it on the truck and took it to my daughter's house where they have all the the apples ready to make cider this weekend. I bought this old cider press at an auction cheap because the wood was totally shot. third picture is of the grinder just a 6 inch wooden drum with nails driven in it to grind the apples I put a 1/2" drill on the shaft and it grinds the apples real fine. Pic 5 is one of the baskets which holds the pumice for pressing. There are 2 of these, number two is in the house so my wife can make some cloth bags to line the baskets. The wooden disc is placed on top of the pumice to spread the pressure from the screw. Pic 6 shows the bottom of the steel channel iron frame which is part of the press I bought. Pic 7 shows how the lift on the Power King tractor is used to move it around. The first picture shows the double side rails that are only on it so the tractor will lift it higher. Pic 8 is the press loaded on the PK and ready to move to the truck. The reason it took so long, is because there were no apples in this area last fall.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
