The mad thing is that that isn't even half of it. It gets so tough to stack neatly once you're 4m up as well.

 

Thanks for taking the photos :D

hi mate nice little machine is the cab roll over certified was looking at kinnetic machine a year or so ago and that wasnt which would have caused issues on some sites but great concept and good luck with the low impact services 

 

Not certified no. Very expensive process for a small manufacturer. You'd have to work spectacularly hard to roll the cab section as the bunk can roll fully without pulling the cab over. The centre of gravity is very low on the cab.

Really liking the low impact, high quality approach you're taking. Certainly beats this.. two hundred tonnes extracted from mixed sitka, Norway and larch stand down the lane from my place, first thin, loads of damage to surrounding trees and ground.

Have you ever taken the time to work out your production rate as regards litres of fuel per tonne roadside? Interested to see how it may compare to larger scale enterprises..

Typically just over a litre of red diesel per tonne on average, including winching when required. 

 

Not a good finish on the site in the photo. Wrong machines for the ground conditions

Creating habitat for amphibians, drinking pools for everything else.
