Just a bit more,
Villiers being an entirely in-house operation they made everything themselves which sometimes led to smaller threads being somewhat vague in size. As tooling wore it went a little off size. This didn't matter as long as you used genuine Villiers spares as they were equally a trace off size but can give rise to some entertaining moments when you find your freshly made parts are too tight or too sloppy. It is not you it is Villiers

Hi Guys

I have finished the Greens Lightweight, welcome your comments and thank you all for your suggestions and recommendations.

Hi Willow,
Excellent job, looks fantastic, seems like a few of these projects are getting finished during the lockdown. Well done

Thanks NormK

On to the next project

Hello Willo and all
Yep, brilliant!
This traditional green colour is a different take on the ones I have seen.

Nonetheless, your machine looks spectacular.

I should point out that Greens was one of the BIG THREE companies
that was there from the early days of lawnmowers.

It is heartening that another Master Lightweight is saved.

Willo, we look forward to your next project.
Many thanks for helping members and the Record.

Wow, Willo, that is something else! What a grand machine.

Hi Guys

I am on to my next project which is a Webb barrel mower. Just wondering if anyone out there knows where you gat get parts and also I am after a Briggs and Stratton complete motor if anyone has one for sale in Sydney.


just for the record after I completed the Greens Master Lightweight, I have completed an ATCO and a Scott Bonnar Diplomat.

Looking forward to nay one with information on the Webb.

Willo

Hi Willo,

Nice to see some interest in rebuilding some less well known makes and machines.

I'm sorry to say I can't be of use for the Webb. The only one I've ever seen in person was a Wasp. I have to say, I loved it.

When trying to find "odd" parts, I usually hit up eBay and search international sellers. I got heaps of stuff for my I/C Briggs and Stihl 009L from the US. It'd start by looking at the UK eBay market. I'm sure there are parts for the Webb in Oz, but how much I'm not sure.

Hi Mystyler

Thank you for your comments and suggestion to look on eBay UK, I have looked there when I was working on the Greens, but will go to that website again.

Will keep you posted on any developments and will make sure I post a photo of the finished product.

Willo

Not to worry, sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

Looking forward to the next project.

Hi Guys

I am hoping you can assist me, I am after a muffler for an ATCO Qualcast motor, fitted to a 14in barrel mower. Just wondering if anyone out there has one they are willing to part with.

Happy to pay for shipping as well.

Thank you

Willo

I realise this was a while ago but what type do you need.? A picture of the mower will help. some types are available here in UK still.
