nice one mate, what sort of weight are those little ones? what will they pull?

 

i grew up near garrets of leiston, theyve got a few of those big steam engines, remember seeing 2 working opposite ends of a field, a big pully/winch in the middle of one, pulling a plough up and down the field, seriously skillfull engeneering there!
