    How about a device that detasles corn in the seed corn crop.

    Being from corn country I've never seen one.

    A corn detasler is a bus full of kids.

    image.jpeg I think that's what it is though, google image search for "corn detasseler" and there is pics of one that looks similar. Looks like the little wheels actually remove the tassel.

    WINNER!!!!!!
    Came out of the Dupont/Pioneer seed plant in Hermiston, OR. When I quoted them I just went dimensions, I didn't have any idea what the heck they were.

    Your prize is- the equipment identifier of the week award. I know, that sucks.

    Thanks everybody for playing "name that load".
    Stuff like that is why I like what I do, always an adventure. It would suck if it was "what did you haul today?" "Walmart ####", "what did you haul yesterday?" "Walmart ####".....no disrespect to Walmart #### haulers, but......
