We eventually got the reel hooked up to actually cut grass, check it out: http://goo.gl/xxMZL3

This is one of those moments where your grandfather says "they just don't make em' like they used to."

Stuff back in the day was built to last

This is actually the best type... It cuts grace like a scissor instead of ripping it like the fixed staight blades ones...

This unit was used to power many attachments not just mower reels. Often used by truck garden operations or grounds keepers.

Most likely used on a golf course back in it's day....they STILL use these same style cutter heads on GANG mowers today. They group several of them together and PULL them around with a tractor.

I had a similar unit as kid, Ideal Model R or Model S. The build date was stamped on a steel plug on the underside of the crankcase . Mine was from 1913. You can get some more speed out of the little bugger by tightening the spring on the governor. Nice add with the electric start.

I could mow lawns all day listening to that thing chug away.
