the 'todays job' thread

[Mick Dempsey]

Do you have a 45 gallon drum? You could fill it using a 25L drum to a point where the tractor can only just lift it, water weighs 1KG per litre, so you will know the weight.

 

That's a ridiculously simple but good idea!

[Ian Flatters]

Loaded these tonight for tomorrow as there being leased out for a bit as I need space in the depot.

And some other bits.

Thorn hell for a few days, topping this hedge on a steep bank, valtra was a big help being able to reach 80% and lay them out for chipping, bottom bit tractor couldn't reach resulted in lots of cussing and bleeding trying to avoid hitting the vans with 20ft thorn tops.

New com defenders made life more comfortable than a helmet when in tractor and avoided miscommunication with poor ben who was cutting

[Mick Dempsey]

That has to be the worst (i.e. Nastiest) job I've seen on here for a while.

[Gray git]

Was so proud of the finished job I couldn't even bring myself to take a picture 😭

Looked piggin awful but it's what was wanted to give the new vans a view of all the other vans, glad the chip was blown back under as it hid a lot of sins on the ground.

Best of luck with that job:thumbup:. What about nesting birds in it:thumbdown:

[Gray git]

Got it finished just within time apart from 1 bush where we did actually find a nest, a very vigilant cutter was the best hope they had as was actually quite open once inside so easy to spot any nests.

That is (was) a hedge job from Hell Mr Git. But i bet you put your inspector Gadget head on a clearly you put the best cutting/shifting/chipping components together and nutted it out as is standard for you John.

The forst chew it up ok?...what roller speed did you have it set at?
