BGU machines - anyone use/used them?

[rowan lee]

Looking at this piece of kit in particular

Would be the next step up from an Eagle or P55. Lack of conveyor would not be an issue for me, and by the looks of things that foot operated splitter, looks like it would be handy for dripping rings into as well.

 

Just wondering what BGU machines are like in general, don't hear that brand around here very often. Cheers.

Cheers for the comments, i think we have got a dealer here in southern Ireland somewhere down in the south east. Might ring for a price sometime soon.

 

With regards to the 'sore back' issue, i know where your coming from, but from a domestic users point of view and just occasional seasonable work, it sure looks easier on the back then the old chainsaw, horse, maul routine. (expensive toy mind!).

5500e all in, so about 4500£ or there abouts. Very expensive toy alright.
