Hi,

I have recently purchased a dilapidated seeder (see photos) which is in need of refurbishment. Does anyone have any photos and/or drawings of a complete machine that would help me?

Many thanks.

If you go to the photo gallery section of the VHGMC website and put in ‘seed drills’ you can get up pictures of a Fedex drill like yours. There are a lot of local firms who made similar drills about the turn of the 20th century. I repaired the woodwork of my Horace Fuller drill by building it around the brush and axle as I couldn’t move the brush without breaking it.
You will also need the shute which drops the seed into the ground, made of tin they are a fairly standard design on these drills.
