Ransomes & Sims - Budding Machine for Cutting Grass Plats

Page from Ransomes & Sims catalogue, 1860.

This was the last year that Ransomes & Sims produced the "Budding Machine for Cutting Grass Plats and With all the Recent Improvements."

  • RANSOMES & SIMS, IPSWICH   MANUFACTURERS  OF     BUDDING'S GRASS CUTTERS,

    WITH ALL THE RECENT IMPROVEMENTS. THIS Machine is so easy to manage, that persons unpractised in the art of mowing may cut the grass on lawns, pleasure grounds, and bowling greens, with ease. It is easily adjusted to cut to any length; and the beauty of its operation is, that it leaves no seam, nor any of the cut grass upon the lawn. Other advantages of this Machine are, that the grass may be cut when dry, and, consequently, it may be used at such hours as are most convenient to the gardener or workman, while the expense of mowing is considerably lessened, as more than double the work may be done with the same manual labour that is requisite with the scythe.
