Cutting Sheaf Hay with the Binder - HV McKay Sunshine

In 1884, frustrated by the slow and laborious nature of harvesting wheat, Hugh Victor McKay aged 18, assembled a stripper harvester on his father's property at Drummarton, Victoria. The Sunshine Stripper Harvester was immensely popular, and in the early 1890s McKay established his Sunshine Harvester Works in Ballarat. In 1906, McKay moved his manufacturing operations from Ballarat to Braybrook Junction (later known as Sunshine) on the western outskirts of Melbourne. In 1907 Braybrook Junction, now a small township, was renamed Sunshine in recognition of the contribution of the Sunshine Harvester Works to the development of the locality. In 1921 the company was reformed as H.V. McKay Pty Ltd, By the time of H.V. McKay's death in 1926 the factory covered 30.7 hectares (76 acres). In 1930 the Canadian farm machinery manufacturer Massey Harris bought a controlling interest in H.V. McKay Pty Ltd, with the Australian operations of both firms being merged under the title H.V. McKay Massey Harris Pty Ltd. In 1955 this company was in turn absorbed in to the Massey-Ferguson global entity becoming Massey Ferguson (Aust.) Limited. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you enjoy my content and want to support my work, consider joining my Patreon community at Red’s Engineering.
