The auld farm implement thread

[apple g5]

Hope this helps

Run around plough

Potato ridger (gives potato fields that corrugated look)

Zig-zag harrows

PZ Zweegers Haybob (for turning or tedding hay)

Ballast roller (can be filled with ballast, normally water to increase its weight)

Overgrown is a feed wagon, mixes silage and supplements. Next to it is a Marshall? muck spreader

Forage harvester, picks up cut grass, shreds it and blows it into a trailer (for making silage)

Hey Ditch, I've got a couple of things like that stuck in my hedge too! One is a horse-drawn mower I think. Pics of my property wouldn't look out of place in this forum

Here's a pic of a tractor I pass every time I go to Carrick on Shannon.

Spotted this in a delapidated yorkshire windmill... is it a harrow?

 

[ricasso]

Looks a bit like a gate hinge in the top left hand corner,if it was a harrow (I can see what you mean) I would have thought the spikes would be offset to each other,to maximise the effectiveness.

nice to see pictures of that lister cs. my dad bought one last year thinking it was a cs and then
after doing a little research on the id plate found out it was in fact a very rare lister jp1. unfortunatly it has a hole in the engine casing but can be repaired. he is probably gunna sell it coz he is in love with his common as much lister D.

here is a pic of my little toy that i rescued from a scrapyard in scotland last year. it had been sat for 15 years untouched and only took me 15 mins to get it driving around the yard.
its a little 1949 ransomes mg5 petrol/parrafin crawler

i like it so much that i decided to buy another one. its in far better condition although in an unrestored and in bits state at the moment. but because it is small it wont take long to sort out and will be plouging a feild at the great dorset steam fair at the begining of september. ive also got a set of jersey tines a plough and a hoe set for the back of this.

Head up the lane at the old school house across the N4 flyover at Drumsna, it's in a field on the right.

X marks the spot

If your interested the lister CS is up for grabs,anyone that turns up with £50 and a large trailer can take it away.

unfortunatley ricasso its no good for us as they are just too big, but £50 is a good price for it.
ive got my hands full at the moment with this new crawler of mine, i picked it up this evening and ive got exactly a month before its first show, so i have my work cut out with that lol.

Best of luck with the resto mate, I always found that bit more fun than the actual showing,apart from the satuday night in the beer tent that is !!!
