winder is one of the larger of the commercially made 5 strand models available.

Hook Rope Maker / Winder Patented
November 12th 1901 The overall condition of
the rope maker / winder is very nice. This style rope making machine was
designed to straddle a fence rail.

slot to straddle the rail. The
wood is a bit dried out and has some cracks but is solid. Good + . . . . . $150.00 SOLD!!

Rope Machine / Maker This is in nice

good, and there are no other issues. A nice one!! Good+ . . . . .$295.00 SOLD!
The NUWAY Rope Winder
This unusual rope winder or rope twister kind of reminds you of a smiley face, and
that is what you see on the faces of those who are lucky enough to find one of these,
at just about any price. It is all original and damage free. The
only info is Pat. Appl'd For and the name cast into the housing on both sides.
It is a five strand and the bottom center hook revolves in the opposite direction
from the rest when you crank it up.
Good . . . . .$395.00 SOLD!
Pelton
Type Water Motor Unmarked, but with the
classic double cup design it is a Pelton. From an era when water was
plentiful, and cheap. I bought this at a street fair one day as a
forge blower from a lady dealer I can never buy anything from. Lucky me.Good . . . . $595.00 SOLD!
The Monarch Double Slant Wheel Hog Oiler from Iowa This is a rare and difficult to find hogoiler. It is damage free, meaning no welds cracks or other major damage. For those who want a short history lesson these were developed and designed roughly from just before the turn of the last century in to the 20's or 30's when the advent of pesticides relegated most of them to the scrap iron heap out in the back forty or down the nearest gully, where most of today's rarest and best ones come from. During their hey-day, there were 100 or more different designs available. The basic idea was that by using the hog or pigs natural tendency to rub, scratch and root, he would do that on or against this and when the wheels turned, the oil in the reservoir would come up getting on the pig and help to control the lice and bug problem as well as keep those cute pink ones from getting sunburned. I have seen a couple of the best collections and have handled some great ones in the past, and this is a real good one.
Good . . . . .$695.00 SOLD!
Stoddard
Cast Iron Tractor Seat This good
looking cutout letter tractor or implement seat is in nice condition and does not
have any casting cracks or other problems. It is guaranteed to be old and
original.
Good . . . . .$95.00 SOLD!
Primitive
Wooden Shovel & Fork
The shovel is carved
from 1 piece of wood. It is American, or at least was bought as such back
in the 70's. I am not sure of the intended purpose of the fork. Probably to lift some light material like hay into the wagon. It is in very nice condition and not a form you find or see very often. Neat!!
Shovel . . . . . SOLD!
Fork . . . . . SOLD!
