Westwood T1300 with the tri-blade 36" deck.

Not enough clearance to get any wire in there, I'm afraid. Already tried that.

Look familiar?

Don't you know your can't trust the British (Perfidious Albion) etc.

I put my trust in the Nautical Mile.
And the British, the French as well.

It's not 100% the same, but close enough. As I thought, looks like I have to remove the drive pulleys in order to drop the spindles out of their housing.

On the other hand the big ships are relatively easy to spot and to avoid the "wan**rs in tankers"

Ain't heard that one in a donkey's years.

Just don't lose that "key" from that keyway slot. They'll probably cost an arm and a leg to get hold off, if available.

Knew you'd agree with him.

Or did I?

 

[Gravity Aided]

I've measured in both, and had to convert one to the other.
Deeds for the farm are all in Irish acres, all modern forms are in acres.
Boundaries have to be measured in metres, with yards, feet & inches as a supplemental measurement.

Not in Hides?

Not in Hides?

Or did I?

You'd know.

Longer, I believe. Never seen a dead donkey.

Hides, in Medieval times, were the amount of land it took to support a family. Convertible, as poorer soils took larger hides, etc. Iona was considered to be five hides in size, according The Venerable Bede.

Nautical Miles represent a minute of arc ,each being one of sixty, which makes for a degree of latitude at the equator, or 6,076 feet.

Soak it in water then to soften the fibres?
