Just for singlespeedstu, the mcmoonter and anyone else.
Picked up Beelzebub on saturday evening and took it out for it’s first ransacking yesterday.
What a great bit of kit! Just wont stall no matter how heavy the grass 🙂 Looking forward to stripping and refurb’ing it this winter.

Turn up the volume 😉

And that kickstart is all flavours of AWSUM!
😀 😀 😀 😀

Counts your toes out, and count them back.

My ears are ringing.

Is that your garden or did you take it up the local field for a blast?? 😆

LOL,

I had a party on saturday, and was it my imagination, or did the whole world decide to cut their lawn on sunday.

I did! But I used a rechargeable battery mower. Now that was quiet. 🙂

That’s my “field”. Actually an orchard/coppice.

Sharpen the blades and that’ll be perfect for the zombie apocalypse. 🙂

I like the way that adjustment (choke?) requires you to put your hand within snagging distance of the belt drive. An excellent design decision 😀

It certainly concentrates the mind.

Nice. Why is it everyone on here seems to have acres of their own land??

(Not jealous)

That will end in tears.

Blimey, you’ll be getting a noise abatement order from people miles away!

Saw something like that in the Imperial War Museum in the WWI trench digging section.

Not everyone 🙁

Did you get the camera with it? The video quality is so poor it looks like it’s from the same era.

I think sound quality was the important thing 🙂

“What GoPro for Extreme Mowing”?

Nice… I used to use one of these regularly.

A bit of a beast!

😀 at the competition for the most anchient gardening hardware.

Hasn’t Stoner also bought one of those?

Niche lawnmowers!

Only on Singletrack.

I am after a paddock mower, and was watching that!

Looks great

Whichever one you get you will definitely want the motorsports kit to go with it.

was watching an allen scythe on eBay Debbie – but bought the deck mower so didnt bother bidding on the scythe. More’s the pity.

Debbie eh? Don’t let TSY see that. 👿

Suddenly my custom painted late 80’s petrol mower seems woefully inadequate. Time to get a flail tank I think.

Not jealous

I bloody well am!

I have used an Allen Scythe, although it was a bit of a mission. First time out we had to re-seat the valves and do various other bits of severe maintenance. It never managed to cut well enough to proceed under its own power without getting snarled up.

Swoooooooooooooooons, then scuttles off to ebay

all that land and no pump track – sigh
