Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering / farming equipment — wheels and rims
Dutch term or phrase: bok
I have a long list of farming equipment items up for auction.

One section is "Diverse Velgen". Included under this are the following details:

- list of sizes
- "2 wagenwielen" (I assume from elsewhere in the document that this refers to a feed wagon or similar)
- "incl. 2x bok"

Sorry I can't provide much context. Any help appreciated!

neutral  philgoddard: It's good that you've done so much research, but most of your references seem to be irrelevant, and I'm confused. I looked up headstock, but I'm none the wiser as to its meaning.

  -> yeah, got carried away with the screenshots. wanted to show all the potentially relevant entries. as far as I understand it, a 'headstock' is the attachment/thing that allows e.g. a feed wagon to be connected to the back of a tractor. also called: linkage
