    Bought some property and cleaning out the pole barn . Lots of history on the land , Ag use going back over 150 years . Just not sure if this is Ag related or just a washer ? It’s all wood ( the round looking things are wood as well) with a metal bottom . Any help appreciated .

    Looks to me like a antique washing "machine".

    Gonna start a sideline business? Remember...

    Could that be a bean cleaner? If they raised white beans then saved some for seed, they have to be cleaned. No water used though.
