does anyone on hear make there own shares? Going to have a go at making some for my fiskar as I can't get any. just wondering what steel would be best?
Don't know why you dont make them out of stainless!! TIG'd up, they'd last then.I wondered weather i could harden them after, I've heard you heat then quench in oil? we've a forge so it could be possible. I will need to heat them to get the shape anyway
Going to make a form, get some Hardox plate as Tonym suggested get them laser cut inc holes then heat up in the forge and press into the form with a fly press. Will see how it goes.......
I welded a strip of 5 mm hardox to some YL points
I would say thay where better than originals
Still have one .....The other is in a field at makerfield
Will bear that in mind Roy if there any good, can give you a number of a man in Lancashire that has a pair of new old stock ones, there only £100 each........
I quite fancy knocking a few out to sell, I've a feeling these fiskars ploughs might come back into fashion at some point, might be wrong though
I like the idea of a "European Classic class" which the Fiskar would be eligible for but Howard 150 pointed out to me that it would have implications as there is room only for one classic entry to the European match which is filled from our current Classic class.
I like the idea of a "Classic World Style" class which Mydexta described to us already running in Scotland, might send an email to the SOP with such a suggestion and copy it's content to here and Match Ploughing on FB
Our class today was a 12" non hydraulic class
In it were
Bomford with hydreins
Ts97 with bonnings
Ts64 with scn
Ts59 with tcn
Ts59 with epic
You could come with a brand new tractor and plough, as long as no hydraulics
