Cool Pics from the Rough and Tumble Threshermans Reunion

Some pics and a couple videos from Rough and Tumble

Roger's 10 hp Springfield that he purchased in 1971 for $500 ($3,272 in 2021 USD )




Here's the 6 hp Otto powering the Tri-Plex water pump to supply cooling water for the Willock Building and the Power House Building.

A few years ago, I took Laurie and my son Connor to a tractor show just outside of Dublin, NH. I think they're still pissed at me.

Those old tractors are always fun to look at.

Do the tractors have a parade through town at some point ?
I saw a great one in Lewisburg Pa quite a few years back.
It's awesome seeing and hearing them rolling down the street.
