Good old insurance companies:sneaky2:

 

Like Mark(?) said , at least they arent just 'viewfinder' types:001_cool:

 

088 up the tree......seem to have been there a few times recently,which could explain why my left wrist is foooked:thumbdown:

 

So has the truck met with all expectations after its re-vamp?

[Rupe]

Yep, the truck is great thanks. Its great to have all the kit in the dry! We used to put kit in the back, or for larger jobs we would take my car as well with roofbox on, saws in roofbox and climbing/rigging kit in the back.

 

Now we take the car much less often (only on 3 man days, or if we need stump grinder as well) and I've got rid of the roof box for now.

 

Anyways heres the final stump pic. I wetted it first to bring out the patterns....

nice one rupe, pity you didnt have something to show the scale mate, i know its pretty big

[Rupe]

I was just thinking that! Its about 8foot longways and 4-5 accross??

[Stephen Blair]

are you grinding it out aswell??

[Rupe]

Done it!! Too dark to take finished photo though. Might pop back over the weekend.

[Stephen Blair]

was there a lot of grindings then?did you take it away or leave an echo compost pit lol

[Rupe]

We took some away, half a truck full, or the pile would have been too big. Left it a bit raised so it will level out in time. Was quite soft in the middle, but still took 3+ hours to grind! (had 6 cups of tea brough out in that time though and cake/jaffa cakes/chocalate brownies etc etc.

 

Also took a truck load of sawdust as expected.
