For sure. It is just interesting to me that it would take three generations to finally get a grain table for the combine given all the pitfalls of swathing. The very first horse-drawn combine built in the 1800s had a straight-cut header for harvesting wheat, so it is not exactly new tech or a new idea.
So, that's why I wondered what changed. Finally having enough money to buy one is certainly a reasonable answer. As a farmer myself, I know all about that.
