Im onto my second one but this one is due for a change now, there is a lovely new greenmech out that i saw at a show but it was only a 6" machine where i couldn't be done with a littl'n now

 

And the older greenmech's had that bloody awful plastic cover ugh...

Was the new 6'' the quadchip, 'cos in real terms it will actually pull more through than your 190 does due to the letterbox feed, yet it weighs less than 750kg and has a turntable.

 

I wouldn't worry about the plastic cover - it's the choppy choppy bits that matter (and a 1928 GM will choppy choppy 11'' wide pieces through unlike your 190).

Totally. Looked like Lego but worse; something a spotty kid had knocked up in his tech class or an upended pond liner!

After smashing a big lump of timber through one we re engineered ours from metal.

 

Monkey I do like the use of very technical terminology of choppy choppy bits. Did put a big smile on my face.

Cider blunts my engineering terminology a little I'm afraid!

 

I know what people mean about lego - I think the old GM bonnets look a bit like a wedding cake...
