Enthusiasm/efficiency/greed/idiocy/cruelty (delete as you see fit)...

Unloading a big oak log - the crane will pick up a couple of tonnes off the trailer and once it has it in the air it can reach a fair way out with it (which it obviously isn’t designed to do). It is usually fine - this is the second time in 5 years I’ve had this failure (but the several hundredth time I’ve performed the manoeuvre, so I’ve done a lot better than I deserve)!!!

About time I put up a photo of the digger again, it's pretty much done now, just waiting on the rotator to arrive. Took waay longer than it should have taken. The delays getting the engine back were ridiculous. It's back together now and working but no more pics til the rotator is fitted!
