Brilliant video I would rather watch this harvester over any new one

[@ballyhoulihanagrivideos397]

Good video. Very interesting. Appears to work well. Great blow on chopper

[@Cotlandfarmer]

Great video Aaron and a great bit of engineering by whoever did the conversion. 😎👍

[@AgriVidsProductions]

Apparently it was made in Cumbria, but be interesting to find the history on it

[@wizardwheels]

This was built by my late uncle, Peter Ramsay, outside of wigton in Cumbria.

What a beautiful machine 💪

[@jacooboophotography]

That is an interesting machine. Fair play to them looks great for a homemade one!

[@AgriVidsProductions]

Yeah be interesting to find out the history on ir

[@ianramsay9674]

Well it's an old mf combine that my late uncle converted. He was a very skilled engineer and was the second one he had made. Was used on my uncles farm in Cumbria for a few years to do their silage. Worked well. Has a Cat engine in it can't quite remember the horsepower. All the conversion work was done by my uncle including moving the cab over from its original position on a combine.

[@kennyallan8425]

Be interesting to know the drive train, engine,horse power and flywheel speed, the reco seems to have a fair punch firing into the trailers

[@richardgibbs7917]

Tell them to put a wind guard on the pick up , make a huge difference

[@Eavis_excavations]

Great to watch Aaron slight bit of confusion on the change on the move but anyway still worked is that the chopper from off the fendt you filmed last season? The forager skid unit looked like an old MF combine with all the excess metal work removed and a basic bonnet made looked to be going well cheers for the comment regarding my claas she goes very well she was cruising nicely the other evening not pushing to hard 👍

[@danielerigon1846]

looks like an old MF 850 or 860 combine! perkins v8?
