Thanks Jack and Paul,
I agree, yes very rare and I am sure if any farmers did have one it most likely ended up getting used for something else e.g. as a feeder for calves or providing a good place for the chooks to lay their eggs in the corner of the shed! And if you had to sieve a bit of sand for cementing or patch a hole in the bird cage, well that mesh on top would have been ideal.
I am blown away by the photo. I saw a photo online some time ago (maybe on Gumtree?) of a Southern Cross KX-D with the catcher attached, but can't find the photo any more.
Paul, I wonder if it would be possible to obtain the dimensions from whoever owns the one in the photo?
