Thanks for posting WJY. Ag mechanics was one of my favorite things as an ag teacher/ FFA advisor. It was one of the best ways I had to inspire young people and get them to believe they could succeed. In 38 years of working with young people, I found that if I could get a kid believe in their own ability they could achieve a lot. This had to be balanced so they weren't over confident but I found if a person believes they cant do anything it can become a self fulfilling prophecy . I could go around the shop and find something a kid had a knack for. Once I did that we could build on that talent and develop his or her abilities. Toward the end of my career when I was our counties vocational director several of the state "experts" didn't care much for me because I told them often that a good work ethic and pride in a job well done was at least as important as academics and test scores. I found if a young person is inspired they WILL be successful. Sorry didn't mean to rant but it means a lot to me . Thanks again for posting 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
