PatsDeere requested homemade tractors ,implements,tools etc made on the farm. My contribution to his request is this butcher table at my neighbors in pa , According to his grandma it was homemade at the farm many years ago,They still use it,and have a butcher stove with a big kettle to make scrapple. Any body else have anything that is homemade on the farm?

I made this wood splitter 35 years ago, cost was $85. Probably split somewhere around 450 cords with it and it's still going. I'm getting tired though.

Larry, This is my current project. Getting to old to wrestel big blocks of wood onto my 3pt splitter.
The steel is mostly Kubota crates that I get from my good friend that is a CNH and Kubota dealer. The splitter is a early 80s "American" splitter, built here in Black River NY. It already has lots of my modifications, including the 3pt mounting. The winch is a $80 2000#LP, HF 12V unit. In the foreground you can see a leverarm that I can switch from side to side to manuver the gib, and control the winch when completed. The cherry block is just there to show how the grapple will work. when done one side of the grapple will have a grab handle, and a spring cylinder on it to manuver it onto blocks of wood and hold it there until line pull sets the jaws.
Hopefully tomarrow, I will roll it outside and weld all the components together. So far all I have welded is smaller components such as brackets and the boom frame.
Loren, the Acg.

Looks like the way she dressed its way to warm to butcher , unless the coldroom is close by.
Hate for the meat to spoil.

It was not made on the farm but about five miles from the farm at my High School. I made it in 1977 when our school still offered a Vocational Metals course. It still runs !

This one was made from a cub motor, a narrowed truck rear end, and an extensive scrap pile. Has live hydraulics, 540 pto, and functional 3 point. Father in law always wanted a 10-10 so he Deered it up.

Stuff our 18 year old son has made over the last 4 years...he designed the stuff himself.

1 & 2. cart torch - can be pulled behind the tractor.

3. target stand

4. folding table for his barn style birdhouse to sit on

5. can crusher - crushes short or tall aluminum cans, then dumps them into the bag hanging below the crusher

6 & 7. folding work table with electrical outlet and extension cord holder (it folds flat for storing on the wall)

8. campfire cooker - we also have a grill grate that can hang over the fire.

9. the Barn-birdhouse during its construction (lost the fair pics with his grand champion ribbon when my computer crashed a few months ago)

EDIT: forgot to post the barn birdhouse pic - will try it in edit and see if it allows me to add a pic...Yep, it let me.
