Tumbling Tam haysweep.

The jigsaw shows another interpretation of the wooden "Tumbling Tam" hay sweep: a porcelain model made by Ray Ayres for Border Fine Arts (see Links), from John Dodd and his family's farm at Sillywrea, Northumberland.

Avoiding the heavy spikes as they went head over heels wasn't easy. And on uneven ground there was another hazard: the points of the sweep could become embedded in a ridge in the field and would frequently snap off.
