Sweet. Nice find. It's nice when the spouse is supportive.

That's what it is but not just for cattle or chicken feed. It looks like it has adjustable plates. If it is does, you can set it to crank out a finer grind for corn meal. Look around and see if you can find a hand crank that will fit it. Then you have the option of motorized or hand cranked. Find a long handle so you have plenty of leverage.
Tell her she did just fine.
Those photos that tennecedar posted, 'specially that brace and bit, just reminded me of all the awesome old hand tools that my Dad owned. He inherited most of them from his father, who was a school teacher, carpenter, and farmer. He had these awesome planes, brace and bit sets, wood chisel sets, squares, aw he ll everything. When my Dad passed away, his friends sort of all helped themselves I guess because most of them went missing. Sure would like to have that stuff now.
Yeah, my old man was the kind of guy that everyone looked up to and I was only six when he died. The guys that started showing up around the place claiming to be his buddies ....and helping themselves to what he had out in the toolshed...made me think of a quote that I heard years later, I can't remember who it was about but it goes "when the lion dies, the rats come out"
What goes around comes around. Let's just hope Karma ha a special little something tucked away just for them.
Hopefully this was one of them.

I've got pea plants about 8 inches high and bean plants about a foot high. If this stupid cold weather will break I'll plant the dang things.
NCO - I've heard rumor that Finnish folks won't eat bacon. Just a rumor, you understand, but if there is any truth to it just send the frozen bacon my way. I'll figure out something to do with it.
That darn Rick, so altruistic, always willing to help out. I have to admire that. Ummm, this week I ordered 50 first aid kits, the little backpack individual size ones so I can give one to each staff member and distribute them among the youth that use our centre for outings etc.
