[Johny Walker]

Alan Mason has a few in, look nice and tidy aswell, about 5k gets a good un. you still got the little ryco pedestrian grinder?

we've got the carlton 4012 at work and as long as its got a full set of sharp teeth on it is a real good grinder, the only problem is the plug for the remote control is really flimsy and it always get knocked out and has to be repaired regularly, but if it was owner operated i guess a lot more care would be taken and this would not be a problem

The wee ones are £3500 !!

 

How much can you build me one for dean? I worked out the price of getting a mate to put one together and it wasn't far off the price they asked for them, plus I wouldn't be able to staff it as it has no CE marking.
