G'day Norm and Bon_Scott
Totally agree, Australia was such a different place 'in the day'.

I remember when I did initial research on the man, Scott Bonnar, I was surprised
that his first invention was a green feeder: because many Adelaide backyards
had chicken pens.

Love that assembly line photo, where in Aus did this take place?
Bonn_Scott, it was the Latrobe Street, Ballarat, factory for the Landmaster.

The first Landmaster tillers sold here were fully imported from England.
The British Firth Cleveland Group set up shop here, trading as Landmaster (Aust) Pty. Ltd.,
in the late 1950s. Some models, then, were made or 'assembled' here.

Cheers
