As mentioned in the last issue of the cultivator we have produced a digital 2021 calendar. This is now available for download in the members download section.
If you decide to download this please leave a comment in this post so we know how many download we get? Unfortunately the website does not record this.

I am sure Geoff will correct me if I am wrong but I think the chain drive is for this. It looks just as lethal as it sounds in the description.

MGE 1827 is the individual engine number and dates to some time in 1950. However this may not be the correct date for the machine as the engines were sometimes changed.

Going through the shed the other day and came across this pump I forgot I had. I believe it is some form of irrigation pump and is marked as “wizard boil simplex”. I have tried searching this but google has not been very helpful in finding out more information. Dose anyone know anything about these?
