The how and why of Handypiece development: The original portable sheep shears and crutchers
Like all good inventors, David saw a need and rose to the challenge to meet it head-on. And there’s no better recommendation than a tool developed for farmers by a farmer. Farming a small block at the time, David and his dad were alerted to the very real need for user friendly portable sheep shears and crutchers; a tool that's durable and reliable, but easily-operated well away from your farming sheds. And the rest, as they say, is history.
