Farm Workshop & Maintenance HB

Out Of Print ... Farmers are great "do-it-yourself" men. They have to be. Few of them can afford a resident, full-time mechanic. And when farm machinery breaks down, it must be back in action without delay, for in a difficult season the ability to get on quickly with the sowing or harvesting can mean the difference between profit or loss on a particular crop. But a mere handiness with tools is not enough. Modern farm tackle is complicated and precision-built; it demands sympathetic, skilled adjustment and repair with precision tools by people who understand how it works. We at Farmers Weekly, with our own six farms, know how important such skill and understanding are. That is why we have produced the weekly series of "Workshop" articles on which this book is based.
