Default Hand built farm equipment

Have meet this man building farm equipment that swedish farmer use to have in 50-60´s. He makes his own wheels, use 2 hammers, 2 hand steel sharer and a mig. All equipment are made to look like hard used machines. With a good back ground you couldn´t tell from real ones. Enjoy!
