This week’s featured video was published by Prairie Public Television to share the history of the Bobcat Loader. Two ingenious brothers, Cyril and Louis Keller, grew up on a dairy farm in Minnesota. Their father usually repaired broken machinery parts rather than purchasing replacement parts. The boys learned to fix equipment and made their living as adults serving the local farms in their community, after returning from service in World War II. Their motto was, “We can repair, weld, or fix anything but a broken heart.” A local turkey farmer came to them and said he needed a way to clean out barns quickly before the next birds were brought in.
