Thanks again for the help in getting to know this vintage machine. I’ve almost finished putting it back together... ended up getting a turf machine engineer to make a new bedknife and sharpen the reel, gave up on trying to match the yellow and have left the wheels ‘as is’ to maintain a little bit of it’s history.
It’s cutting paper like scissors the full length of each blade and looks like it’s going to do the job. After many hours of work on the mower, the catcher can wait but I’ll be using the dimensions supplied eventually (thanks again Max!)
I’m just so impressed by the build quality of this thing. They really don’t make ‘em like they used to. Can’t wait to finally put it to work after the rain has passed here, in about a weeks time!
