Very nice. Handy having all the big toys to move stuff around.  

 

How are you liking the first cut system?

First time milling today on some English oak. Bit of a slow start setting up but got on well once we got going. Got a second, wider stem to do tomorrow. Certainly enjoying it but have no idea how I'm going to get it out, access is tight and they are heavier than I anticipated

Portinscale just out side Keswick was just under 4ft at the wide end and 10ft long been back today to do some smaller bits and managed to roll some to the road side and pick up with my crane to take back home to cut with my bandsew mill

Loving the Crane! How much can that lift?

[peckerwood2016]

Lifts 800kg at 4.2 meters and around a 1.5 ton close up its been a winner

Awesome! Would love something like that. How much would I expect to pay for something similar? 

[Ratman]

Similar age, i bet £6k - £10k depending on achievable weight/lift of hiab. Tidy MAN on flea bay at min for £8.5k +vat

[peckerwood2016]
