Hello ODK Showcase lovers This Showcase pays tribute to one of the seminal but small players in post-war lawnmower history – Precision Mowers of Mt Alexander Road, Essendon, Melbourne.
Precision Mowers played a part in the Golden Era of lawnmower production; when a number of ‘small players’ could have a go at making power lawnmowers post WWII.
Precision started with converting ‘pushies’ to petrol, but later designed and made their own little rotary mower.
The thing that makes this story remarkable is that the family has become involved, with sincere thanks to ODK member Claude.
I was fortunate to purchase the Precision Hurricane powered Rotamow that was posted earlier this year. A friend kindly bought it up to Brisbane for me, all I had to do was replace the fuel line and it fired up straight away.
