Randy: Here in Ontario and across the northern US you quite regularly see used Woods belly mowers in the $400. to $600. range. I paid $650. for this one, and just maybe they are not all in as good shape as this one was. This one had been on an BN, thus mounting is a bit different for SA. My biggest cost since to date has been building that mounting hardware. $300. I bought new blades ($65.) when I got it. Bought a new belt two years ago, ($60.)haven't used that yet. I put new top seals ($15.), and sandblasting was roughly $65. This will be my 6th season using it, mowing roughly 2 acres.
Some folks talk about mowing in 2nd and 3rd gear, they must have super smooth ground. If I tried that, breakage would double my mowing cost. I can only imagine the damage if one snapped off a guage wheel and it got under the mower deck before he got stopped. I notice a couple of 18hp Deere's in the neighborhood with 48" mowers and in 1st gear I'm still mowing twice the speed they are. In 1st gear I'm making close to an acre per hour, and I have about 15 trees, two hedges a barn and a drive shed to deal with.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
