wce,
Thanks for the photos - I might just have to pay them a visit and have a chat. With some of these parts, I think reproduction is the only way to get what you need. And the price is the price.
Jack,
Always appreciate you chiming in with little details. I really do like the idea of a roller-rotary. Or at least, a rotary with a rear roller and standard side wheels for the front so as not to roll the grass right over before cutting. I mean, the yanks still go mad for rotaries with bolt-on "striper" kits!
And Good-Ol' WA still
does make mowers. The Mow Master Company (Dwyer and Felton) is still going strong in Welshpool today. After a bit of a hiatus, I believe Alroh and MEY have started being manufactured again, in Mandurah. (No History Record on those companies, Jack?
)
