Blaw Knox Pavers
Has anyone out there got any pictures of Blaw Knox pavers from the 70's working in conjunction with the Aveling Barford Master Paviour rollers and Bristowes chipspreader as I remember seeing these as a child.

Re: Blaw Knox Pavers
Hi Ian im sure there are a couple of photos of Paving machines at work on here but canot remember which thread they are in.
I've posted a photo of a AB roller on here but were it is i'll have to think about were it was.
But here is one of an AB model GN at the Vintage excavator Trust Site in Cumbria.
