Delmonico findd a couple castings from the "ill fated" steam engine that blew up.
He heats up some babbit material and re-pours the bearings.
He then bolts one of these to each side of the table. He gets a shaft and puts a belt pully on one side and a wheel on the other side. He gets some more of the rubber tubing left over from the pee shooter and fastens them around the wheel.
He then takes this out and stakes it out in the yard. He fires up the steam engine and parks it near-by. He then runs the belt to the belt pulley. Opening the fire box he throws in two more shovelfuls of coal and goes and grabs one of Slim's chickens.
With the axe he dee-cap-i-tates the chicken and lets it go. When the bleeding headless chicken stops chasin' Trinity, he scalds it with steam from the steam valve and throws the clutch in on the power shaft on the steam engine.
The leather bison hide belt spins the wheel with the rubber fingers and Delmonico holds the chicken against the fingers. The fingers remove the wet chicken feathers quickly. The Ranch with No Name now has a steam powered chicken plucker.
