I often say my favourite restorations are either things I have never seen before, or they take me back to my childhood. This restoration falls into the latter, I have wonderful memories of being about six 'helping' my grandfather use his tiller like this in the 60s. The birdsong throughout parts of the video strengthened those memories. In all probability you are much young than my 59 years, and to you this is just a machine you’ve done a brilliant restoration on. However, I don’t think I'm alone in recalling machines like this being used in happy times of our lives. Those memories can be wonderful and precious. Thank you for such an amazing video and a fantastic restoration.

You just cant pass on these old beaters as they are twice as good as the cheap plastic crap of today and have stood the test of time, you have now sent them on a journey of at least another 25-30 yrs. Thankyou so much for these vids as they give me a huge amount of enjoyment. Cheers.

I used to restore vintage Snowmobiles. It was a great hobby but time consuming and parts were hard to come by. Now I just repair small engine equipment much like that Tiller. I always enjoy watching an old, rusty hulk come back to life. I do wish I had a powder coating setup. I usually do primer, paint and a clear coat sealer. I think it holds up better than powder coating in the long run.

I like the touches of the decals, I had wondered on a previous video where you go them from, never considered that you'd print them. That old Suffolk Iron Works engine brings back memories. I used to work on those as a teenager and I still have my fathers old Qualcast Commodore lawnmower which had one. It precedes the engine you have here as the earlier ones had cast alloy starter pull assembly instead of the nasty plastic and cast and chromed throttle control rather than the pressed piece. The 70+ year old mower now rests peacefully in the shed as a memory of my father and the first time that I was allowed to mow the lawn with it.
