Just following up my earlier pics with the vid. Very Happy
As you can see the grinder's a bit bashed.
Anyone know the maker of the waterlift?

Great stuff - thanks for that Mike.

I'd describe the lift as a dredger rather than a water lift! Looking through the old catalogues (Doll, Bing) they seem to fall into the two types. The sand bucket dredgers have a much steeper return 'slope' than the water lifts. Yours looks very similar to mine in the style of the wheels, chain, base style and colours.




Having said that, Ive not been able to identify mine so I'm not much help am I?
