Electric sheep shears

Milton09 · 2011-05-12 09:41:11

Can anybody recommend a supplier for a good quality electric sheep shears. Not talking about the larger cable driver one, only a small flock so couldnt justify that. I see them advertised for about 150 but heard various bad reports about them - so can anybody recommend a brandname or supplier for a good one. thanks

I have a lister supershear use it for crutching, class machine for the job much handier than the shearing machine. Not sure I'd use for shearing though its fairly large to hold and shearing a few sheep it would get hot...

We're going to buy a battery operated Horner this year, supposed to be a good machine. We've no power on any of the land blocks, and damned if I'm going to be hauling a genny on my back.
