I thought today I would share some more of my pics. These are some of the strange and interesting items I found while searching the back roads for forgotten relics of the past.
All I have to say about the last item is “Danger Will Robinson!!”

Great Photo's Pack ! Have a Happy New Year my friend and wishing you the best yet to come :-)
Too Cool! A lot of fun stuff in those photos.
Happy New Year!
Thank you very much for the kind words Manikin, AzTom & Dan121156, happy New Year to all.....
You found some good specimens here, I love old iron!
Thank you very much vanskyock24, Windwalker, fortapache, ttomtucker, blunderbuss2, JSmed, & walksoftly.......
Great pics and items -- and of course the last reference was a "hoot". I was a kid when that show was on and that robot always scared me -- this one is definitely his equal :)!!!
The last one looks like a Moonshine Stihl.
Is the 1st one a "INDIANA" tractor?
The first one is unusual, I'ts had me scratching my head since you posted it. I think it's a motor cultivator, not sure of the brand. You sit behind the small wheels & it pivots to steer, you can see a large segment gear on top of the differential.
You can see something similar under motor cultivator at this link;

Nope I was wrong-

Nice link Gargoyle, I've never seen one of these tractor/motor cultivators up here on the prairies. From what I understand they were more for row crop work. There were lots of the smaller walk behind units though.
Thank you very much bratjdd, trunkman, Blackshiep1, Radegunder, Trey, & gargoylecollector. Very interesting links, now that is my kind of stuff... that would look great sitting in my yard, however, Ann does not share my enthusiasm...
Happy Belated new years packrat!!!
Thank you very much SEAN68, and a happy New Year to you.
Moline made a tractor very similar to that as well.
Thank you very much nutsabotas6760, mrmajestic1, Jono, kerry10456, & DrFluffy..
Would love all these in my garden..:-)
Thank you very much inky & pops52 ...
They would look great in my yard also, however...........
Picture 2 & 3 are stationary hay presses.
These things are scary dangerous in operation & took 4 - 5 men to operate, they used wire to tie the bales with & where the term "haywire" came from.
Pic #2 I believe is a John Deere (Dain) hay press, it has a truck engine mounted on it but originally would have had a hit & miss type engine on it.
Here is a link to a video of an older model in action;

#3 is an International Harvester #15 hay press with an International 3-5 HP engine
