In my original email to Scott Lambert I asked who he wished articles to be sent to if he wanted them in future, 9.30 yesterday evening I received an email asking them to be sent dirctly to him

Steve W I agree with all that you have written above, having organised many events over the last few years the maxim is true that the loudest moaners are the ones who do sweet FA towards the event !!

Thanks for the welcome gentlemen. No problem getting it in the garden…..backed it in and drove it out – that was 7 years ago and I needed a place to try it out – garden seemed a likely spot. I’ll post a topic in the pedestrian section, thanks again, Rick

Personally I would still go to Tractor World anyway…

theres shows all around england that we can fly the banner, and we do, dropping t/w would not be the end of the world

Had a lucky find today. While going through some of the photos I took when stripping the Trusty down, I noticed that there was a stepped boss with a piece of rod attaching it to the top of the crash bar (see photo). This looked remarkably like the missing throttle rod block for the twist grip. Went rummaging through the bits I had removed from the tractor and took the more detailed photo. It’s definitely the throttle rod block, so is one less bit that I need to get manufactured. Couldn’t believe it had been staring me in the face all this time!!!!

Tw is A very good way of promoting the club we maybe should think long and hard before cutting off one of our biggest shop windows.location location and so on.

Assuming the coil is OK, don’t waste time replacing the points, fit a Magnetron breakerless kit Pt No. 394970 (£23.70 from Briggsbits). It’s easy to fit (even I managed it !), you can leave the points insitu (after snipping the wires) and never have to worry about them again.

Difficult to tell from your images but my immediate thought is front wheel weights for a garden tractor with a rear mounted grass collector.

Plently of howard experts on here which should pop up soon

Thats rather on the large side for your small plot, bet you had probs getting it over the side!!!
