I like where their version of the TA is mounted. That big flywheel on the side came in handy. The location of it would sure be a heck of a lot easier to work on than the IH. I would be curious to see who's would be the most durable.
The rotary idea was actually started in the 40's by IH when they were designing the MX-4 (Maybe that is the right model???) corn sheller attachment for the mounted corn pickers. They were trying to design a sheller with a greater capacity. Supposedly one of the engineers left IH and went to New Holland. That is how New Holland got the idea. Or so I read a while back.

I think it is amazing how a lot of the "new" ideas and inventions were actually thought of a long time ago and for one reason or another they were shelved.
