Since it obviously has a press it must be for making corn squeezin's out of the shelled corn.

Looks more like a cider press setup to me. Coming up at auction in Kansas.

sure it's not an apple grinder/cider press?

You have to cut the apples...

Yup, of course that is what it is. Kind of old since it has the flat belt pulley.

I'm only about an hour away from the auction but I don't have any apple trees so I guess I really wouldn't have use for it. Besides the online bidding really is just teasing with the most and highest bids coming in person at the auction.
