Dorset 2010 Threshing

[benz1890]

I got video'd with my W H Pool threshing outfit I took to Dorset this year.I'm well pleased to see it as I'm not very good at taking pocs as I'm usually too busy and haven't see anything of our set up. This was the first time using this set up after renovating the thresher which had been laid up for at least 50 years. I have now found a W H Pool reed comber to go with this set up.
Mike.

Just to get people in the picture, a guy who collects engines came over asking about the engine, he thought it would be the same to start as another engine he has...wrong!!! The Pool is a beast to start, the last owners tried only once scared themselves so much they pushed it to the back of a shed and left it there for 35 years until I bought it!
We had to help this guy to keep it under control, he was shaking like a leaf once it was running and was glad we were around. I was glad too as I'd like to keep this engine in one piece a little longer
