i soaked the crank in molasses and hot water over night to get rid of the surface rust. it worked a treat. theres only side to play on the rods none up and down.

once i purchase a new plug for the sludge trap i'll start removing it

my old man bought some harrows from a guy off trademe and told all the other stuff the guy had for sale. so i went to have a look and came back considerably lighter in the wallet. got myself a new front wheel
