    Now that’s called production. Looking good Scottie. I want to know more about the picture with the saw. It appears you have a cutting board with two pipes installed to stop the meat from sliding forward. Do you only cut on the push stroke?

    I will PM or text you the answer. I’m trying to keep words to a bare minimum on the forum so I don’t accidentally offend anyone.

    Is it possible I saw something like this in the 50 Shades trailer?

    Be more specific. What was that scale used for?

    This small scale in the pic above was for weighing cotton bags or sacks. The larger version of the scales (I have one of those too) was for weighing bales. But you are correct, cotton scales.

    That one indicates it was used to scale up to 200 lbs. usually there are some counter weights shaped like a very small school bell that slide on the beam. Usually two for dialing it in. It works much like an old fashion scale at the doctors offices. With the weights that slide.

    How about taking a trip to Ky and bring a few tools?  We have a 1400 lb beef we need to get slaughtered.  Sadly, my grandfather who butchered all their hogs and beef died before I was 4 and no one continued doing that.  
       I can remember the scalding box and still have two big lard kettles from killing hogs. Really wish he hadn’t died so young and I could have learned from him. 
      Soon as I can find a cheap upright freezer, that old boy will be steaks and burgers.

  • Brings back memories, as we used to butcher 2 hogs on the Friday after Thanksgiving.  Made lots of sausage too, but I really liked the fresh “cracklings” we fried up with beer!

  • Those hanging hogs are sweet.  Made me remember when I got in trouble in grade school when I took an eyeball for “show n’ tell”.  The Nun’s (Catholic school) were shocked by it and called my mom.  I was so proud of that pigs eye!
