Thank you JD and Dakota for the info. I guess I would need to see the combine to understand how it works. I'm not figured if the threshing is done with centrifugal force or grain on grain threshingIJ Or maybe bothIJ It seems if it uses plastic paddles and the concave don't move, there isn't much metal to grain contact. I see the rotor spins at 800 rpm and the concave at 500 rpm in unison, so how many times around and how long does the crop stay in the rotorIJ I'm just not sure how green stemed beans could work in itIJ You guys are making me want to go out to KS and look at this thing now.

What I want to know is if all you folks so in love with this Bi-Rotor would ever even give it a thought if the hated John Deere would build it exactly as it was designedIJ I'm guessing that most of you probably wouldn't.

I have misplaced the better article I have on it, but the one I have my hands on is the Winter 94'95 edition of corn farmer magazine. No problem, shoot me a addy! JD

If they did not change too much stuff, you bet your life I'd being looking one real hardIJ I don't purchase a name or color, I'm looking for a simple concept that has proven itselfIJ The simplier it is, the less that can go wrong! JD

I think the concave spins much slower than 500 rpm. As far as I understood Mark Underwood, it is mostly grain on grain threshing.

JD will never be able to build the birotor without having Mark Underwood supervise it. What I have seen at the last USCHI convention, JD is way to arrogant at the moment to understand anything.

Somebody please explain to me the advantage. I read the book and found it very interesting. I have always thought that there were two important elements to thrashing grain, note I said thrashing and not seperating.

last I saw the CX100 articulated combine it was sitting along the west side of Rt 29 just south of Deer Creek fall of '99 But the dealer over in Ohio knows all about it, even said there was a video. Maybe he's just trying to make me think he knows everything (he also said there was only one 8010 that burned up) Didn't they say salesmen are the lEAST trusted and nurses the MOST trusted. Got me thinkin though I'm gonna call his bluff and ask for the video.
