I spent last Sunday running the threshing machine with my '29 20-35 at a local operating museum, "The Ukrainian Heritage Village".  It was a cool cloudy day but we managed to get most of it done-some wheat and some barley.  It was the first time I've had my '29 on the belt--I usually take my '28 over there for threshing, but it didn't seem to want to go this time.  The '29 performed flawlessly and had plenty of power for the 22 X 38 McCormick thresher.  We threshed 5 large bundle wagon loads-- one was a load of tough wheat but they only plugged it once!
I left the tractor there belted up and I hope we can finish in a couple of weeks as the weather has turned and we're getting lots of rain and the possibility of some "stuff" from shameless' dang machine!
Was a good, fun day and they bought all the fuel!

Pics won't post as size is too large at 5+ MB.  I'll see if I can figure out how to get them smaller.

The pictures were taken by the photographer from the Uke Village with a high resolution setting on her camera.  I can't seem to change the settings to be able to post them.  I have limited abilities with computers!! LOL

It was a fun day and I still have to go back and finish the threshing when it dries up.  That may not be soon as this is what I woke up to this morning!!

Lots of crop out yet.
It usually smartens up enough to get the majority off.
