    The red slotted tool is a chain breaker for flat chains. Happy Father's day Pete.

      I've got one used it about a month ago on the old manure spreader kinda helps separating the chain

      Yep first step is try with a board and hammer to split chain after an hour of cussing and repenting and smashing fingers just go get the the chain breaker

      I got a lesson on one of those when I was a kid in the 60's, helping my Dad replace a broken chain link on a NewIdea manure spreader

    Pete: The tool that you didn't recognize is a Peoria Steel Chain Detacher Tool made by Tool Hall Castings Co. I believe that Moline Steel also made this type of tool. They were used for the flat chain links. My dad had a couple of them on the farm.

    Tractors changed the world for farmers and propelled industry into new heights. Probably one of the greatest periods when farmers and their children transitioned into inventors, engineering and industrial tycoons.

    That red wrench with slots in it was used to take apart the square links of chain used in manure speaders and anything that used the old square link chain, that was common in old equipment.

    Thanks Pete! So many memories for me being an ex- Inter parts guy who worked for a couple of dealers here in Oz. (1 being in the hills as mainly market gardeners & the other out in the country for more larger farms) We sold Inter Trucks & I resorted a few including Scouts for one of my bosses too! Thanks for sharing. 👍

  • @fredpax6126
    @fredpax6126 3 місяці тому

    Pete, The red tool that you picked up in the exhibit hall that had the slots is a tool used to assemble and disassemble chains, the style of chain like you have in the bottom of your manure spreader. You would slide a link into one of the slots, kink the chain and use a hammer to drive the links apart.

  • @genewileyopa
    @genewileyopa 3 місяці тому +2

    The red tool you didn't know what you never new what it was is for taking elevator chain links apart that are stuck. Might work on manure spreaders also. Thanks for the tour, enjoyed it.

    Interesting to see the original and restored vintage IH tractors. Lots of TLC went into these. The red cast slotted tool was a chain breaker for link type chain. Guess I'm giving my age away as many of the letter series tractors were common during my younger days. Never too old to learn more about old IH iron!!!

    Pete, I recently worked with a gentleman who knows you in person. He, too, was a farmer. He had dairy cows. He used to share stories with me about how hay used to be baled with wire. This video just brought all those memories flooding back. Those very same bale wires are still used today. Only we use them now for baling cardboard, paper and plastic bales.

    @hturbo1007 3 місяці тому +1

    Pete. That heavy tool that you showed us at around the four minute mark is for holding a flat chain ( like what would be used for the web of a manure spreader) steady while you hit it with a hammer to take it apart. Makes taking a chain apart a breeze. Happy father's day!!

  • @sawmillcharliesbeefarm
    @sawmillcharliesbeefarm 3 місяці тому +1

    The cast tool is used to hold #55 Steel Detachable Chain link or different size chains so you can bend the link around to the slot and hit it with a hammer to drive the link bars through the slot to brake the chain apart and take a link out of the chain.
