Pond, the walker in Pedestrian Operated Machines Posted January 28, 2014 Hi Jeff, fantastic restoration, nice one !!
Farmfitters Multi Gardner in Pedestrian Operated Machines Posted January 28, 2014 Hi Jeff, sorry for any confusion, its actually two machines but more than two implements... the engine unit can be detached from one implement and then used on the other, the unit that was on the little mower is now on the trailer unit, the second machine purchased with the rotavator unit has stayed on that unit. I was pleased to get the trailer, not a bad deal for £25 !!

Farmfitters Multi Gardner in Pedestrian Operated Machines Posted January 27, 2014 At last years Ardingly Vintage vehicle show I was offered what sounded like a graveyard mower from a gent in Eastbourne down on the South Coast (steve d country)... this turned out to be a Multigardner, a machine made by Farmfitters ltd which comprised a self contained power unit which could be used on a variety of implements Shortly after buying this machine I was offered the correct trailer and rotavator unit for it for a nominal sum, needless to say car and trailer were heading to Wiltshire fairly quickly (we love a road trip) Soon afterwards another Multigardner turned up in Somerset on our favourite auction website, this was duly collected and brought back to life I will put some more photos up when I have downsized them, here's some to be going on with...
