With me, restoring old things that I own or have bought to 100% working condition is a sickness. I didn't realize this until long ago working on the avionics of a 45 year old airplane that belonged to my wife. It had a piece of equipment that was obsolete and never used. It worked but didn't interface with another piece like it was supposed to. Every time we flew the plane I would glance at it and it would irritate me that it didn't work the way it was supposed to. I realized it was making me nuts so I went on a lengthy crusade to figure it out. After mountains of research (even people at the factory didn't know how the old thing worked) and searching for rare parts I got it working 100%. I then shut it off never to be used again but every time I was in the plane I was now happy. I realized then that it was a sickness with all old "junk" and it was no use fighting it. I bought a backhoe to build a barn with the intention of selling it after the barn was done to recoup my money. I found I couldn't bare the thought of parting with it and fully restored it. In a few years I will be moving to a new home where I probably will have no use for it but it is going with me no question. Stupid isn't it.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
