  1. This weeks find at the honey hole was this cultivator for a ride on, its got one bar and shovel missing but I've got a spare from a previous visit. Just goes to show there's still little gems there, you just have to look harder
  2. Many happy returns of the day Paul. Hope you have a brilliant day with lots of presents and Wendy to spoil you rotten. Is it 49 or 50 this year ? The old memory isn't what it use to be. 😎😎😎. ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
  3. On the literature i have managed to find it says that these were the Rolls-Royce of plucking machinery and claims that as many as 70-80 birds an hour could be plucked. These machines were exported to many countries even Russia were they were used to pluck Penguins
  4. You didn't leave them much food Alan, they lost a bit of weight
  5. A mate came round for a cupper this afternoon so we thought we would give the chicken machine a run. Its a 1933 Comb Plucking Machine powered by a Stuart Turner 2 stroke engine and came out of an old caravan at Johns place after 25 years of storage
  6. There's loads of manuals on RS Norm for the thistle bar, look under manuals , then mowers , then page 22. I'm sure I've got one, I'll have a look
  7. Making good progress Mark, the boys are doing a good job while you're away from the nest. Are you going to insulate the roof, it's going to be cold up there when you've got 2 foot of snow !!!
  8. He's having a laugh Iain, the photos are over a year old i wander what it looks like now. On the other hand shipping to the UK is cheap at $76 but would i end up with a tractor or a book ???
