Hulett Unloaders since their creation in 1898 revolutionized the handling of iron ore by reducing labor costs and unloading times of lake boats. Their unique look and awkward movements were described as a “grasshopper leg“ or “dinosaur“ eating. By the early 1990s Huletts were rendered obsolete due to technological advancements in the processing, shipping, and offloading of iron ore. All have been scrapped except for two dismantled ones on Cleveland's Whiskey Island. They are slowly rusting away while buried in foliage and are nearly forgotten.
