wow paul that atco looks as if its cut seaweed down on the beach !!! as rollers go gareth was saying most homes have them in a longer form. try looking in wendys baking equipment. you did not here this from me.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Thanks for the information Angus now I know what model it is

Must try and source some new front rollers for it…

[vhgmcbuddy]

Theres an ATCO kickstart, a Qualcast with a box and knackered front rollers and a Hayterette.

That Qualcast Commodore was, in my opinion, a much underrated machine. With its “proper” clutch was so much easier to use than the equivalent Suffolks with centrifugal clutches. Probably why the grassbox has survived in apparent good order! Hope that it goes to a good home.

you sound a bit like me,if you get any spare time do a bit more,and for every bit done its a bit less to do. Thumbs are the worst to injure, I once flatend mine down to about 8mm thick with a hammer and chisel. it took 1 year to get any feeling back and even now 14 years later it still looks odd. so both thumbs down

As promised some snaps of the machine without box and graphics at home in the garden in daylight

Thats exactly what I thought Nigel, its the same unit as those in the Multigardners…

Sounds like a right cowboy, did he leave you any horse poo for your garden ??

Seriously though I would not be a happy bunny if a muppet like that was let loose on my car, and as Steve says would be asking for compensation for a very shoddy job…

Pork pie with distinctive flavour ?? That will be the pork pie pickle as tried at Newark !!

I have entered both Multigardners plus the Versatiller plus display boards etc

[vhgmcbuddy]

i would keep that engine from the hayter paul, very usefull parts for your other machines

[vhgmcbuddy]

Yes I gather the Hayterette is a useful machine Charlie, thanks for the info re the tag I will have a look…

1457/8 it says…

Ha,ha,ha! John, A big thumb is exactly what I have at the mo! With a hole right through it almost….. I dont like to let the grass grow, it is a mower after all!
Seriously though, I had nothing else to do on my days off, so figured what the heck?

[vhgmcbuddy]
