I believe the narrator said this is known as a hay stack type storage, and that 3 storey tall gadget is a known as a beaver slide. The rake on it is moved by the winch or motor of this green Chevy that seems to be a WW2 military truck similar to the Dodge Power Wagon
because the field is soft due to high groundwater or recent rain, they use these front wheel drive (with chains on the tires) car frame looking home made scooper/tractors to gather the hay and push it sliding across the ground to the beaver slide / lift
the little orange tractor pulling the hay rake is the same as my grand dad's early 50s Allis Chalmers Model B https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/01/does-anyone-recognize-what-manufacturer.html
That is very cool! I've never seen hay stacked like that.
ReplyDeleteThe pusher vehicles look like they could be 2 wheel drive trucks with the bodies removed and a driving platform facing backwards. One of them looks like it has a Ford inline six engine. I'm not sure about the other one.
