I went to buy a petrol engined wacker plate and some heavy gauge racking....No probs with anything but in the corner was a German Diesel wacker plate...a monster of a thing......
Iasked if it was for sale....he said it has never run in the years he's owned it and give me a 10enner for scrap......
they didnt use the excess fuel start device.....ran first time.....
wish I had it now, better than the lightweight Honda thing I have....
and speaking of a Honda power....
I needed a brush cutter on wheels....
the only thing that was a avail new was a Husqvarna at 900euros....!!!!!.
so made this.....the engine was a gift... its about 40 years old...still starts and runs second pull.....wheels from a wheel chair, tool bag is a blown air bag from a Reno...she aint pretty but runs all day with no probs....

My next door neighbour gave me a really good Honda mower because he had spent the previous YEAR trying to start it. Closed choke and 3 pulls and away it went. He is an actor so shouldn't be too surprised.
This guy's a quantity surveyor!!!
