The name is Mid West Fabrication from Dalby in Queensland. I have run a 36 foot centre mount for the last 2 years on a CR970. The first year had problems getting enough crop in to the very hungry CR, so they made me a new "Crop Hawk" model this last season, much bigger opening to the broad elevator and some other upgrades and has worked very well. Very well built. Used to run honeybee before, this front is way better than honeybee.

thanks Humpo, tell these guys they need a web page. All I could find was a pamphlet displayed on a case dealers web page. Here's the link: www.sunstateag.com.au_midwest.htm Are you in the Dalby_toowoomba areaIJ looks like a decent machine, but tough to tell from only a few photo's.

Yeah, I'd like some pics of it, particularily, the guage wheels, center canvas, and drives. What do you cutIJ Can you shave the ground with it, like a HBIJ My brother and I each have 25' macdons, but I got a bigger combine last month so I need a bigger header. Was planning on a 36' macdon again. Don't think mid west will get dealers over here for a while. The draper header market is hot, taking over a lot from the "blades". Mid West will probably sell good if they get here. My email is penross@telusplanet.net
