Has anybody ever seen,or have an idea of how to make some kind of auger that would pull itself into the bottom of a round corn crib to pull the corn out into an elevator or the feed grinder auger? There used to be an old guy around here who hauled ear corn to Maumee all winter. I never saw the outfit that he used,but folks who shipped with him at the time,claimed he'd bring a thing with him that would work it's way back into the crib and pretty well empty it out with very little shoveling. I took it that it worked about like a bin sweep. I'd heard tell that it would never be OSHA approved,but worked like a dream. I grind about 2 1/2 tons every 3 days,and while it's the most exercise that I get anymore and is probably good for me,I don't know what's worse,sweating in a cold wind this time of year or shoveling in the summer heat. I know,another silo and high moisture corn,but I'm not up to spending that kind of money when it wouldn't take much for me to get out of the cattle business anyway.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
