I have a Webb 17" cylinder mower that could do with a good sharpen and
set + service and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good places in
or around Ibstock (Leicestershire). There is one place nearby but @ £130
I thought was a bit expensive.
Is it worth buying a cheaper rotary mower for £100 and not bothering
sharpening the old one ?

Cheers

No.Webbs were one of the best makes - keep it going as long as you can.
