Thank you Chris, yes the tank is front to back, I'm looking forward to getting it running, I have never used one.

Hi, I picked up an Allen Scythe over the weekend and thought I would do some research on dating it but I seem to be getting conflicting information. Sorry I cant load any pictures, since I updated to windows 10 I cant get pictures from my camera to my PC, ( anyway thats another story ) My Allen is machine No. R25418 on a brass plaque on the alloy cooling duct on what I believe to be a Villiers 11c engine. The "R" before the number should mean ratchet hubs but it doesnt have ratchet hubs, from what I can find the machine no. dates it roughly to 1947 but after 1943 they were supposed to have a Villiers Mk25c. Also it has brass handlebar ends but these were supposed to be out of use after the Mk2. Have I bought a bitsa or is everything I read on the internet wrong? So in summery machine no. R25418, Villiers 11c engine, no ratchet hubs and brass handlebar ends also it has a cable operated clutch. Can anyone give me an idea of the date please.

I think its something to do with horses but not sure what.

Hi, I am looking for a left hand side brass handlebar end for a Mark 2 Allen scythe please, not sure if they are all the same but it has a Villiers 11C engine.

ok, thank you

Thanks Wristpin, so is it supposed to have some lubrication or left dry

Hi, can anyone tell me if the cone clutch on an Atco Groundsman is supposed to have a lining of some sort or is it metal to metal, thank you.

Nice, good find, the reel carrier and grassbox look like they came straight from a lawnrider

Thank you very much, sounds like a bargain to me

If you dont mind hanging on to the solo we can work something out closer to the dates but it may have to be the long wait to Newark

I dont get to many shows, in fact Ive only been to 2 in the last 3 years, both Newark. Have you any plans to come near Derbyshire at all?

Hi Paul, have you still got the multimot engine? if so I would be interested.

There was one on ebay a couple of years ago, cant remember what it made but I thought it was a lot. Nothing in my merry tiller literature either.

I suspect these are the wrong pictures

Hard to grasp the scale.

Thanks S1g

Picked this up the other day, cant find any info on the internet, anyone know anything about them, especially an age ?

Very nice, you have some very good skills.
