Remember the piece of equipment I kept hinting around but not telling? Well, I finally did my research to confirm my suspicion. The piece I found is a wheel and plow assembly section of the Oliver Chilled Plow made in the early 1920's. Unfortunately, there are only pieces of the whole plow and I will never be able to reassemble it to its entirety. So, I am stuck with the wheel and mount that actually look quite good. I am going to put them in my yard as decoration until I can go back and get the other pieces that I do know exist. It doesn't look like much, but I did enough reading and research to know its importance to farming. That was all I needed to make it a chunk of history to be displayed!
