More odds & ends from Skinner Farm Museum









and one last one:
Just imagine what this wheel was on.

I may be REAL slow commenting.  Lorelei is here and she has plans to do so much stuff if the weather permits.

What a great place to go to, especially for an antique collector or a tinkerer.
I could see myself in this place.
Cool share, Rose!
Have a Happy Week!
Peace :)

These are some great exhibits. I love looking at rusty cogs, gears and flywheels though I've no idea why as I don't understand how any of it works.

Wow, the Hart-Parr Tractor Company dates back to 1897. No flat tires on this baby. Neat rusting, dusting stuff here.

Christine said...

Wow! These are fascinating pieces of machinery but that last well is a colossus! Great place to visit!

Revrunner said...

Makes me think of all the different industries it took to build these things.

Hello, wonderful captures from the farm museum. I am sure they were all grand items to have back in the day!

Enjoy your time with Lorelei! Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!

That first one looks like something my Dad would have set up to get the job done.

Arti said...

Everything looks so interesting and I wonder how they worked in former times.
A very nice museum.
