Sickle Master Machine
Due to age, I'm looking for a manufacturer and distributor to take over production and sales of our Sickle Master machine. We have built and sold 248 Sickle Masters to machine shops and farmers who use it to rebuild and repair sickles on swathers, combines and mowers. It makes it easy to restore a worn and damaged sickle to like-new condition for about half the cost of a new one. It includes a hydraulic shear to cut off the old knife, and a press that takes out the old rivets. It then sets new rivets with 2,200 lbs. of hydraulic pressure so there's no bar distortion.
  The machine is very easy to operate. Most people become profficient at it after just one sickle. Owning a machine is a good sideline business for farmers and repair shops. We also distribute all types of replacement knife sections and rivets. (John M. Froh, Prairie Sickle & Machine Ltd., P.O. Box 142, Khedive, Sask. S0C 1K0 Canada ph 306 422-4744)
