well it's been a while guys, and a load of work has been done, the push mower is just about finished although I think I put the wheels on wrong way round (ha ha) it mows in reverse (see photos), the royal blade is totally stripped and just about ready for reassembly (see photos) & I've got people in the UK chasing up a new carby & cone clutch. Got a little excited the other day when I came across a morrison on gumtree and paid $60 for it knowing that I had a spare 3.5hp B&S in the shed. I brought it home, swapped the motors over - everything lined up beautifully and
bugger, the carby is playing up, it only runs with the choke or overevs in 'run'. Back to that drawing board. Anyway enjoy the pics. P.S everything I touched on the old push mower seemed to have been originally painted gold, so that's why she is gold - a bit too much I reckon - needs something to break it up. Have fun
