Checked on the crooked old shack down by the river. Roof still needs patching 😕
Not much in there, a couple tractor wheels, more doors, some glass bricks, a bunch of old lumber and some other crap.
And a P.H. Mayfarth Stiftendrescher (threshing machine).
No idea if it has all the parts, it doesn't have the hand cranks, so probably the version for powering by horse-engine (or later steam engine).
It doesn't appear to be as heavy as I thought, so maybe I can drag it out of there and move it to the tractor barn for now, which is much dryer.
Might be a fun restoration project when I'm done with everything else. Definitely worth saving.
