I used to drive a 3 litre turbo cabstar, and that was an awesome little truck. Pulled a tracked chipper fully loaded no problem. Bit skittery when empty, great for donuts on wet grass. Downside is the tiny cab.
-
Yup, mine looks quite similar to that. Except much bigger, obviously.
-
As many as the customer makes. Dont smoke though.

I felled a beech this week, had at least two decay fungi at work. There was a large area of discolouration in the wood, and the very centre of the stem was badly decayed. There will be pics to follow.
-
Got any pictures of the decay caused by ustulina?
-
Another day at the beach, life doesnt get any better!
-
I like the ivecos, I'v just bought one myself, although mine is a tad bigger than a daily!
-
Get a transit, I'v got a nice one I can sell you, and I hated transits before I had this one!
-
The old LTs were good trucks, unfortunately the new ones are completely unrelated! Get a Cabstar.
-
Yes, i notice that more accidents occur after 6pm than during any other single time slot.
-
I'v spliced some, seems nice enough.
-
Needs a towbar, it would be great for getting a chipper onto rough ground!

How? If the rope stretches, it acts as an energy absorber, thus easing the loading on both the load and the anchor point.

No 13 mm ropes here, 11.5, 11, and 10 mm all the way..... Also modern rock climbing ropes are mostly thinner than 11 mm, anything down to about 8 mm is normal.
-
On 16 strand arb ropes yes, but on double braids the load is shared between cover and core.
-
Too bouncy for me, I like low stretch climbing lines, otherwise you are fighting the bungee effect all the way up.

And heres another one! http://hypem.com/track/738403/Calvin+Harris-I%27m+Not+Alone+%28Radio+Rip%29 Not a massive calvin fan myself, but i love the trance sound on this

Here!

I had a go at making one with an 8, just with wide tape through the small eye, doubled up and stitched all the way down, terminating in a stopper. I think it would work fine, but it is a bit bulky, and it could stick in forks during retrieval.

If you know anyone with an Alpine Magnum, they could walk down the corridor with the grinder tucked under one arm. No sheets, no mess. As for the arisings, get a load of those yellow bin bags, and chuck the whole lot in for incineration!

Along with Ferris Beuller's Day Off?
-
Especially Leylandii! Start stockpiling it now, and by the time people are desperate enough to buy it it will be properly seasoned!

A hint of the 'frapp there methinks Ed.
