unkelfergus Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 smelly wanted to make something, so for his first scratch build he was told to choose something nice and simple from the "albutt" catalogue. he chose the high capacity muck/silage fork with hardox tines must admit this was a joint effort 75% smelly 25% fergus, fergus drilled the holes, offered advice on measurements, and glued the tiny bars in the back of the fork. smelly done the rest. Craisy's buckets will be featured shortly, when i have let her out of the shed she has been locked in for the past few days ;D ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
