Upcoming project - winch

[MattF]

Dug this out the other day. Had it a good few year now & not done owt with it, so going to try & make a start on it in the not too distant future, hopefully.




It's about time I started on the odd small restoration or two again.

Lovely bit of kit. Should come out nice with some tlc.

Looks like too much work to me.....that is after it's all fixed up......where do you plug it in ?

3 cwt I've not heard 'hundred weight' in a long time! Lovely to know it will be restored

It is belt and braces built. It has a worm drive (which should not back drive) and a ratchet for backup.

It was its design which attracted me to it. Not the typical fare one generally sees.

Some things just have to be bought. this was outside an old boys bungalow with a for sale sign. No real need for it but it got a lift home
