Home Made Motor Roller Rebuild

- Follow along with my major rebuild of this home made cricket pitch roller.
Originally built in around 1960, this machine has seen better days.
The cricket club wanted to use it again and asked if I could replace the engine.
A quick look at it soon convinced me it needed much more than a new engine!
We found a scrap Ransomes mower to salvage the parts from and set about fitting the complete engine and transmission into the roller.
If you enjoy the video don't forget to give us a like.
Thanks for watching.

I think you haven't fallen far from the tree and the creative problem solving gene is alive and well! Very enjoyable vid.
😂😂
What a great project! Excellent video as usual, look forward to part two!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks.
Great job and brilliant to see a home built bit of machinery like this being restored and hopefully put back into use 🛠️👍🏼
Hopefully we will have it running soon.
I hope the cricket club will build a shed to put her in after all your hard work restoring it.
So do I ! 😃
Very interesting viewing to see all the work and planning that has gone into this project.
You've got a good mechanical brain for figuring out how to go about things and a super well equipped workshop to do almost every job you need to do. Looking forward to seeing the next part of this project.
Thanks for your support. I'm working on part two but it might take some weeks. I run multiple projects at the same time to give plenty of time for parts to arrive etc.
Great video 👍 can totally understand why you want to extend the life of the roller your Dad designed and built 👌 a workshop video makes for relaxing Sunday evening viewing 👍👍
Thanks. My workshop videos don't get good view numbers. Most of my subscribers like the working tractors. It's good to know someone like them.
@@Casterton-Vintage surprised to hear that because behind every working tractor out there there is some workshop time gonna be spent on them 👍 well with mine there is 🙄🤣🤣👍
Must be nice to be keeping the old roller your dad built going. 👍
Yes, it keeps me motivated. I'm pleased it didn't get scrapped.
Looks like nice made roller ! Nice job on a cold or wet day in the workshop ! Your doing a good job love the video !
Thanks 👍
Eagerly awaiting part 2 😎
So am I ! 🤣
Looking good !
Thanks!
Good stuff that's the sort of thing i like doing bringing things back to a second life look forward to seeing it finished ❤
Glad I'm not the only one 🤣. Thanks.
What a time shift for the old girl . gears to hydrostatic
Instant reverse will be quite useful on the wicket. I would think the old crash box was at the other end of the spectrum! 🤣
Your old man must have been a dab hand with a welder. Great that you’re modifying something he did as well. I’m kinda sad you’ve cut the ransomes up, I’ve a soft spot for them😆🤦♂
Don't worry about the Ransomes. It was well past it. The cylinders were worn out and the mounting arms were bent. If you want any bits let me know!
@@Casterton-Vintage think I’ve driven worse 🤣. Thank you for the offer but I’ll pass, I’ve enough projects (more like scrap) already thanks😊
