Certainly made me think, seeing it first hand,  I very rarely do this end réduction type of work over here, which is where I think it excels.

 

On dismantles it’s much of a muchness tbh.

Is he self taught or does he work with other people? Good to see he's learning modern techniques whilst being taught by a dinosaur!

Learnt the basics at Kingswood, spent some time with @bigtreedon then he came over here. Learnt a lot about SRT from YT and Don.

Yes, I’m keen for him to use modern techniques. Why not? I’m 58 this year, I’m not the future, I’m on the home straight now.

It was previously saturated grass but driving machines through has torn it all up.

And finally used my 395. Bought it in March and this is its first use. Not run in yet but already a beast.
