Old Dutch farming equipment in the snow
Near the end of my walk through the [snow in the peat bog](https://steemit.com/photography/@ocrdu/snow-in-the-netherlands-photos-part-2) I got a message on my phone with a tip saying "they" would be moving a display of old Dutch farming equipment.

In these days of low or no budgets for museums and the like, "moving" usually means moving away, never to be seen again. So, I got into my car and slid it to the [old farm](https://steemit.com/photography/@ocrdu/old-dutch-farm-house-in-the-snow) where the farming equipment was.

I am posting this a few days later, as I have been trying to find out what the farming equipment on display was used for, but I failed and only identified one, a plough (duh):

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/Ploeg.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 60mm, ISO200, f8, 1/60s*

Looking at the mechanism, it's easy enough to see what this old machine does, but I have no idea why they wanted it to do what it did:

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/Riekenbeest.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 33mm, ISO200, f8, 1/50s*

I couldn't even figure out what this one is supposed to do, let alone why:

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/Torenmachine.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f8, 1/50s*

The same goes for this one:

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/Circelmachine.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 37mm, ISO200, f8, 1/50s*

This one could be some sort of harrow, but I'm not sure:

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/VeelPinnenMachine.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 50mm, ISO200, f8, 1/50s*

And a last mysterious contraption:

![](http://www.den-uijl.nl/photography/stored/Stangetjesmachine.jpg)
*Olympus Stylus 1s, 45mm, ISO100, f2.8, 1/160s*

Sorry I couldn't be more informative about the equipment; I'm still trying to find out what it is. But at least, when they "move" the stuff, we'll still have the pictures.

I have been around farming my whole life and see things similar to these.  One of them looks like a row maker for seeding.  One for tilling out the weeds between rows.  Whatever they are, they are so cool!  Love old time machines!

Third pic is a mower, it is pulled with a horse/tractor, the arm swings down to cut. The last two are rakes. The second machine is a 5 bottom plough that has been Frankensteined with pitchforks as blades rather than the original plough blades. The third pic appears to be a mower. The first pic, the one bottom plough is something I just acquired this year for doing potato rows. It is very sought after, smaller 3 point hitch attachments are always good attachments to have if you own a farm.

I have the same one bottom plough as well as the mower sitting under snow out here in Canada except the snow is so deep you would never find the equipment. Great post!
