Non-typical attachments or uses

[Mustang67ford 234]

Just curious if anybody uses their wheelhorse for anything other than with the typical attachments since the pto drive pulley is readily available.  For example, I could see using the pto and a belt to drive an ice cream churn like you would typically see a hit and miss engine doing.

I've got a Mckissick chipper shredder for a Horse. 

Not as awesome as an ice cream maker.

An ice cream maker has been discussed here before.  As far as I know, nobody has stepped up to that one yet.

Don't remember who but some years ago someone on here built a chicken plucker for their tractor

I needed to remove the topsoil after I had the new driveway installed - we widened it by about 10 feet from what was there and there was a mismatch in height. Made up a ripping tool to bolt onto the plow edge - mounted with 2 bolts for use, flips up when not needed.

It's been done.

A guy at the big show would bring his for years. Very cool setup not only to display but he would make ice cream in June. Although he wasn't there the last couple shows. There's some pics in the old big show pics.

I remember that guy making ice cream. I briefly looked into making my own but found out that if you can even find one it’s not cheap!! Very cool though, I remember the guy running the engine at a super slow speed and just letting it do it’s thing adding milk and sugar I believe.

Where's @Ed Kennell with his front tiller? A super useful tool IMO

There are two different 500 rpm PTO attachments to run statuary equipment like like grain or hay lifts

[c-series don 8,671]

@Lee1977 Correct and both are very rare, I’ve been looking for the model that goes under the tractor. It’s called the PTO-66, there’s a cool video of it in operation on YouTube.

I've cleaned grass, leaves, nuts from chipmunks, and the occasional rat nest from engine cooling fins. But I never cleaned chicken feathers!

I hope you don't own a patent Richard.        Mine is actually a sidewalk and driveway cleaner.

Well, I'll just have to image it. No FB account. I have enough places tracking my every breath. 

BTW, this RS site is one of the very few sites that does not deploy ANY trackers. Kudos!
