Fertiliser
Spreader |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
This
spreader came as part of a lot including our TEF and a 735 loader. It
was used on a local small holding on the TEF for paddock maintenance,
however, it has suffered from an incompetent operator, but despite this
the metalwork is very solid. I have used it a couple of times (click here
for more pictures) and it works well. It is now stored under cover and
requires minor work and a fresh coat of paint. |

Earth
Scoop |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
The
scoop arrived un-expectantly as part of large lot of implements, including
a high lift loader. It was in better condition that the one already in
the collection, so the decision was made to keep this one and sell the
other. On arrival all of the moving parts were seized solid and the handle
was missing, these have all now been freed off and a replacement handle
sourced. To complete the restoration, a coat (or few!) of paint is required.
It has proved a useful implement, and more pictures of it working can
be viewed here. |

Crane |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
This
unusual crane was found by chance in a local late farmer’s barn
and is one of the most useful implements I have. When we were having the
farm re-fenced it earned its keep delivering bundles of fence posts. It
is in excellent condition, although would benefit from a good coat of
paint and is complete with both brass plates. It provided the template
for Holland-Brand’s
reproduction cranes and this example can be viewed in use here. |

Irrigation
Pump |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
This
incredibly rare implement was found in the same yard as the Hammer Mill,
and was in good original condition (although seized). It was decided that
the pump would be better in a larger collection and has since been passed
on, where it is undergoing a full restoration. |

Hammer
Mill |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
||||||||||||||||||||||
This
Mill was found holding up a shed roof in a run-down yard. The weather
had been kept off it, resulting in it being in excellent original condition.
It had previously been used behind a David-Brown for grinding pig feed
(and still contained some ground meal!). Due to having enough on-going
projects, it was decided to sell this implement through the April 2006
Cheffins Vintage Auction. It is now part of a collection in Essex. |
