I just re-posted it to the Implement Photos section. (wish I new how to attach it to this message) Since I have the same digger, I wondered if anyone can identify the maker. I've had my digger for years and have never been able to learn who made it. The only casting numbers on mine are F&H on the wheels. (and I'm pretty sure that just tells me that F&H made the wheels for the digger) Pete [Reply]   [No Email]

Mine looks similiar to that but, some differences on the drive wheel and front beams make me think its made by a different company. On mine, the centers of the drive wheels are not round shaped and the front beams are just plain steel bar stock rather than cast beams. The F&H wheels in Fullers Farmall's photo are a pretty unique and distinctive shape. Pete [Reply]  [No Email]

I did however have some of it apart and there was some green paint under some of the metal that had never been exposed. I don't know what brand that would be but i think if it had been Deere they would have stamped all of their parts. When I go home next I'll pull it out and look for some more markings.
