  1. That bit about ploughing I do know, Nigel. Nowt else, just that bit. And I do work on a farm.
  2. The plough is now in it's component parts. I did find that the adjusting screw and nut were not seized as I thought. It was the opposite end to the handle. First I removed the disc. Now I'm not sure if this should go round. I would think so, but it seems to just revolve on a bolt. Then off came the share. That off, I removed the adjusting mechanism complete. I had to carefully prise open the brackets holding the nut. This was done with a little screw jack. The next parts came apart with little difficulty. Next came the difficult bits. The block and pivot on the adjusting screw proved to be somewhat stubborn. The screw would just not turn in the pivot. Heat was applied to no avail, Eventually with brute force, but not ignorance I got them apart. So the next job is to get things cleaned up and painted. That could be a bit off.
  3. The screw's still seized as is the disc. But the share's off.
  4. I now have a plough, courtesy of Alan and the kindness of The Showman, who collected t and brought it to Newby Hall. So I thought I'd do a refurb thread o it. As it looked a couple of hours ago. It is now partly in pieces. More photo's tomorrow.

    I'll take some more sticker photo's tomorrow. I didn't mean to tease, Richard. Went out to take a photo, but someone had put the Spitfire in the way.

    C-120 refurb.

    Stickers applied at Newby Hall courtesy of Mark. (Meadowfield) Today I made a couple of mods to the stack today. Shortened it by 4" and made some slight mods to the internals. The exhaust seems a bit more subdued, but I might be imagining it. I also added a little something I picked up at Newby, to the right side of the fender. Photo tomorrow.
  14. I don't know what to say. Superlatives seem so inadequate.
  15. Hi Sparrow. There's Rolloman on here who should be able to help you. Send him a PM.
