Hi Geoff, we did notice the lack of pork pie but thought it would be rude to ask about it !!

Cracking show though, pity the exhibit area wasn’t a bit bigger, something for 2015 perhaps

well owen if you travel with wheels normally you need to take the roters some how,so like you say take the lot job done. nice to hear from you again.

I like your idea with the transport wheels John, I’m up for anything that makes life easer.

hi rob. thanks for the compliment,i have mentioned this answer before but what I do is manage my time,i.e if I get up an hour earlier than work I can make an extra 5 hrs per working week to get on with it. and so on. Now that pulley is the only reason I got the machine because you may have picked up on the fact I collect large stationary engines and old farm machinery which is flat belt driven.so rather than crank up a biggy this will be adequate to test speeds etc.

Nice pair of machines john..

[vhgmcbuddy]

Glad to hear your ok anyway. p.s. are they an expensive Item to buy these igniters

One final touch before decals and that’s the home made transport wheels. have given this some thought as some rotovators rely on the operator to push them to the garden and if your aging that could tire you out before even fighting with the machine in work mode. So take the lot with you and let the machine pull you along ,makes good sense to me. The rotars are about one and a half inches off the ground when wheels attached,so no damage to pavements as you travel along to the allotment

Just trying to figure out what and how various attachments fit to the exhibits, would really like to see the E-type rip up a field. 🙂

Once was on a large pipeline job and when over six skips turned up.later on the containers where emptied and one had two tons of nuts and bolts inside so removed from skip and went to scrap yard four times made nearly a weeks wage on being a womble

Have been lucky at work this week because we are putting up a huge shed size 100 meters by 80 meters,and of course I am on the beg for anything I can use for restos. for example all sizes of new nuts,bolts and washers and steel flat bar of all sizes. I don’t feel bad about being on the tap because it saves me some cash……..Have now finished the rear depth leg and is sporting some new bolts. also this week have been given 2 rear wheels and tyres from a scrap ride on mower and am in the process of making some transport wheels for this also.
