I have to admit liking a lot of these restoration videos, especially the mechanical jobbies.

This one concerns an old Allen scythe mower with a Villiers prime mover which surprisingly is an overhead valve model as opposed to the ubiquitous side valve types usually found on small plant such as this. The only oddity is no mention of how this will run on lead free petrol seeing as it looks like he hasn't replaced the valve seats for hardened ones, nor does he mention a lead supplement for the fuel to overcome this.

Quite enjoyable all the same. and something joyous in these times of doom and gloom I think.
