Well I am sad now... night.
 
Day....Four?
Reworking an old spring tooth drag harrow with a single row of spikes on the rear.
Likely was horse drawn.

Well worn.
Multiple bolts worn half through.
Have not broken any , patiently working them back and forth while loosening ;saving them in the unlikely event some one sees it and wants to spend a fortune for an original. L.o.l..

Here is a similar items picture.
Mine is rust colored though...

The spring tooth with the lichen growing on it is what the whole thing looked like. Well , that and dirt and rotten leaves...
I was short a spring after cleaning and nabbed one off a nearby other harrow from the site I acquired this one at.

folks,

In my misspent youth if I ever woke up next to someone like this I probably would have turned gay....:laughing7::laughing7::laughing7: not pc but that's the truth.

I wouldn't go gay, but I would make an eye appointment at the optometrist, lol!

Two recent eBay finds. "Dr. D. Fahrneys and Sons/ Hagerstown MD / Teething Syrup for babes" This was a highly addictive medicine favored by addict adults, and highly dangerous for the "babes" it was supposed to cure. It had Alcohol, Chloroform, and Morphine. This is a "local" bottle for me. I used to live in West Virginia, but my family and I would hop across the Potomac and do business in Hagerstown. I spent most of my childhood in Hagerstown, and I miss the town to be truthful. Lotsa pretty girls there, but I was too young to fully appreciate them.:laughing7:
 
I'll be turning in now. Goodnight guys!
 
Good morning folks.
 
Well I am sad now... night.

Sorry, Cap'n, I didn't mean to bring you down (Cue Bill and his videos). I spent last Thursday - Saturday running around with a younger veteran and I have a lot to process right now. I might need another minute or two. :laughing9:
