Richmond Hopper #27 Corn and Pea Attachment

Postby Brandon Webb » Wed Aug 13, 2014 7:55 pm

Been working on this a few weeks. Wished now I'd left it rusty but it was so froze up and pitted it required major restoration. Basically just two Richmond hoppers stacked ontop each other. The top one is driven off the bottom one via the shaft, corn goes in the bottom and peas in the top. It's timed to drop peas down the chute at the same time the corn drops so the peas will grow up the corn stalks. You could also get a gear to alternate drop peas between corn hills. Always wanted one of these but had never seen one. Would like to thank Joe Brewer for all his help and for reproducing a lot of parts I needed. Here is a link to more restoration pics: http://photobucket.com/albums/cc43/silv ... a%20Hopper

Brandon, That looks like it involved a lot of work, but it's good for another 50 years now. Nice job.

I'm going to end up re- doing the stripes. Taped them off at 3/16ths and pulled the tape off wet and they sort of bled or laid down and they are more like 1/4 inch now. I'm going to use it now but at least it's ready to go. A guy should probably use 1/8th inch tape to do the stripe then it'd bleed to the correct size. Learning process. :D hope to plant with it this weekend even if the frost kills my corn. I'm going to try popcorn and peas most likely. Where popcorn is a field type corn will the frost kill or once it's up and big?
