Richard, thanx for the reply , The pressure guage is made by Drake & Fletcher and is missing the glass front which isnt too much of a problem yet but i would say that the guage could do with being restored . I dont know if the guage works as i havent been able ti fire up the pump yet . I was considering selling the the sprayer as i have a few bills to pay but i feel once i let it go i would regret it , so i would like to get it going & have a play with it first but what with all my other projects it will have to wait its turn , so i think i would rather pay someone to get her going . I dont think the Lister D engine would take much to get sorted out , it is probably just the magneto that just needs sorting out

Ah you have already had a dozer blade on it Great pics Chris

Can i have a go on that some time Chris , would love to track up n down on it . i have admired that one of yours for a long time . Do you ever intend to get a dozer blade mounted on the front?

I have a Drake & fletcher Orchard sprayor pump that i am looking to get some information on , does anyone know anything about these pumps ? This is the only picture i have of the sprayer at the moment so ignore the little tractor at the front, i will get some better pics later It has a Lister type D endine that needs comissioning & it also needs a new or restored pressure gauge then she is good to fire up , but because my mechanical skills isnt up to much I dont think i have the confidence to get this up & running , so i would like to know if there is anyone that knows anything about this type of pump to help me get her working . would love to see it working for the spring time

a very unusual style of art Nigel , but very good

Karl , my special visit in june will hopefully involve a bar b que & a few pints of guiness at your place LOL

Very talented Nigel, I like them , would like to see some more .

Welcome to myold machine Chris , good to have you here . We really hope you have agreat time here & we value your input & look forward to your postings . lets have some fun here

You accidently set it to underline by having your cursor hovering over the underline icon in the tool bar , dont worry we all do it LOL

yes it did come with a book Karl , Michael has become a great friend also The book is a must for every wheel horse owner/collector .

I bought this tractor from Michael Martino Author of straight from the horses mouth & it arrived in Britain in October 2013

sadly i dont have any attachments for the trojans . I hope to make some one day , when i have finished some of my other projects

Titch , you can post pics of your tractors here within the forum I am a great lover of the BMP tractor , would love to own one one day

what a lovely clean lathe Richard. The last time i used a lathe was when i was a school about 38 years ago , i manage to get an A level grade 1 in metal work . working with the lathe was one of my favorite subjects at school & i managed to build up quite a good relationship with the teacher , so much so i managed to take his daughter out on a date . & WOW she was Hot . What is the story on the Steam engine , do you have anymore pics of it , ? How big is it ?

These are just increadable

Here we have 4 of my British made Trojan Toraktors Built in early the 1960`s The Trojans here are a series 3 & the series 4 Only 500 tracters were ever built & i am told by the Trojan museum trust that there are less than 100 surviving & the MK4 i am told was the least made as Trojan ceased trading the same year that the MK4 went into production

i was wondering how this projects was getting on . Do you use it very much ?

Those are amazing. I think you need to maybe do a model of an RJ or some other wheelhorse tractor You must have some sort of patience
