Steve,

Sounds like a really interesting book that you have there. Would it have been primarily for the equipment that M-H sold out West.

In amonst the part # does it have wrenches mentioned? I would be very grateful if it does have wrenches in there if you would let me have the part # for my list which one day hopefully will be a reference book on M-H wrenches.

The book is the western Edition, published by Massey Harris, Toronto, Canada. I already have been looking for wrenches for you. Book does list wrenches in the parts illustrations. The book is several hundred pages and covers numerous implements. For the No. 3 open binder they list open end wrench # S.250, which supersedes to S.435, which supersedes to H.123. Also is listed a W.105 monkey wrench. It will take some time for me to go through the whole book, but will let you know when ever I have some new #'s for you. If you have questions on wrenches for a certain implement, I'll see if it's listed in the book.

Steve,
I have #S 435 and H 123 down as being supplied with a No 3 Corn Binder. A No 3 Open Binder I guess is not the same as a Corn Binder is it? I haven't got  S 250 down at all. Thats a new one. The other really interesting thing is i hadn't realised S 435 superseded H 123. All new stuff for the list.

I have got W 105 listed down under No 3 Corn Binder and fifty one other pieces of equipment. The trouble I am having is that there is a Wooden Handle version as well as an all steel one, both with the same number and I don't know when M-H changed over from one to the other.

Thanks for the info

Alan

Steve,

That's great info. It's given me several things to add to the list.And made me think I have a lot more research to do.

Can you confirm the part # S 435 please. I have a Z 435 but not a S 435.

Thanks again.
Alan

Steve,

That is excellent information. I can add that to the list.Seems as though wrench  # Z 435 was supplied with quite a few implements.

Thank you very much
