Good point I will look at single cabs as well. What are your thoughts on the cage.

 

Best option (IMO) is to get a security box fitted in a DC or behind the cab in a SC and become obsessive about locking it if you are more than a yard away.

 

I was working on a small detonator for inside the saw fuel tank, to be smartphone triggered in the event of theft but apparently, my scrote Flambé device is against H&S rules and the "toast a scote" remains on the drawing board. Ho hum :laugh1:

Have you considered the conflict of interest angle?

 

I can see plenty of scope for contractors to get rubbed up the wrong way and terms like gamekeeper turned poacher or conflict of interest drifting about.

 

Make sure your employer know about it or you could be buying a van and a huge headache at the same time.

 

It should be ok as long as he is not working in the district. It will need to be signed off by the head of service though. I've done it at two different authorities.

It's not the weight of the cage it's the capacity, it looks great, just too high.

 

I would certainly not take it off, just cut the top off,and shorten the roof section and re weld it back on.

 

You'll be overweight most of the time anyway.

 

Make your mind up , you just said the back was to big

I think mr smith left a long time ago now, Steve bassford is head of arb there now

 

 

Yes they have quite a high turnover of lecturers at Moulton. I was taught by Ian Mcdermott, Russel Sharp and Malcom Godwin that was back in 2013.
