Wayne Coffey's own design, the Combi Clamp, has taken the farming couple to areas of the world they had never dreamed of.
The Combi Clamp sheep handler does not require electricity or compressed air to operate.
It is gentle on both sheep and goats, reliable and incredibly versatile.
"Whether you have a large property, a stud operation or just a small block, the Combi Clamp can provide an efficient stock handling experience which is easy on the body," Mr Coffey said.
There are a variety of optional extras available to suit any task.
"The recent addition of the Classing Wall has given wool breeders the ability to inspect and collect wool samples but has proven valuable for viewing feet as stock pass through the handler," he said.
Field days are a great chance to ask Mr Coffey intricate questions about how to fit the Combi into your farming operation and receive some training.
"A common question is 'How should I set the Combi up in my yards?' which is a lot easier to answer when I have an idea of what their yards look like," he said.
So, if you have a similar question, make sure to bring a photo or map of your yards for Mr Coffey to build on.
