Sound great Deejay. Im usure Unkies intentions,But with each new topic comes room for analasys,challenge and discussion in order to reach an accurate conclusion.
So far Unkie has provide fantastic images and information from various sources. Im sure we are well aware of copyright and would not put the sites credibilty at risk.
The original documents where possible,I will display from my own collection. I will NOT post images from other sites which have been posted by particular members with out their permission.

Unfortunatley Images of real examples are very scarce,especially complete examples. If momentum continues I will seek the original owners permission to post Images of their mowers or documentation they have relating to any of the early examples...As a few exist on other Forums.
As far as im aware any information on Google images can be used,as the owner no longer has any rights to it,but ill check this again. Actually just about anything you post on the net belongs to...THE NET Lols.

It is my opinion,That We research,challenge and assess every bit of info until we reach an accurate conclusion on each topic of uncertainty.

The forum format you suggested is fine. Any factual and accurate info,including images,and documentation can be placed directly into a sub forum or thread if its proven to be conclusive and accurate.
A general thread like this one can be for Questions,presented info,ideas,speculation and anything else yet to be proven.

Whatever you wish to do is fine by me,Ill just keep contributing and learning as much as I can.

Any Info will be greatly appreciated by any memeber,so please dont hesitate to speak up and ask questions or offer opinions,assumptions or challenges.
