Hay budden identification


Recommended Posts

Welcome aboard Wazz... have you read the Read This First thread? It is full of useful tips on using the forum.

Serial number 169201 was made in 1909 (160001-170000 range) If you have a steel ball bearing about 1/2 in in diameter, drop it from ten inches with a ruler for a gauge. Note how far the bearing rebounds and that will give a % of rebound. Anything over 70% is good for a Hay Budden. Like Thomas said pictures will be needed to try & ascertain condition.
