Busch 59906 Gauge H0 Threshing machine, small pin thresher, built in 1900

Small but great!
In the first half of the 20th century, threshing machines were most widespread in Germany with around 650,000 machines. After the grain harvest in autumn and well into winter, contractors usually went from village to village with their threshing machines and locomotives or tractors (which were used for propulsion) to thresh the grain on the estates. The threshing process consists of graining of grain, pods, capsules, etc. between a high-speed drum and a stationary basket that partially encloses the drum by means of impact or friction. A distinction is made between rasp bar threshers and pin threshers.
Basically, the pin thresher works more effectively than the rasp bar thresher, but it damages the grains more. The straw is also more kinked and torn, which is why it is only used for fodder and bedding purposes, in contrast to the rasp bar thresher, whose straw can also be used for paper and cardboard production.

The original made of real wood was implemented in detail en miniature. All drive wheels and shafts are recognizable and, like its full-size role model, it is made of wood.
