18 stoner

Mmmmm, starting to get tempting:001_tt2:

Sorry, but i will reply to the serious parts of this thread, It could take a wee while as i cant get the serious bits going now i have read about the pinky and perky bits:lol::lol: The wife is wondering why i am howling with laughter I must go and find something to wipe my eyes:001_rolleyes:

Here goes; Nice one Ian, worth bearing in mind:thumbup1: Recon you could buy this one Ed, I think Jonny already started the bidding:001_tt2: The toolbox is on the tipper David but i think if its got say three saws, two sets of kit, fuel, hand tools and cleaning gear it will still weigh less than 1.5cube of chips(the space its taken up) The bar at the back supporting the rear pillars is removable and adjustable in height, so i was hoping it would be a bonus not a pain! I made the sides square as it was easier fabricate in the "quick" chipbox, also will have a full height rear door(more space for the sign writing) The builder i got it from told me it was 2200kg empty. Building out of steel is not the best i know, but i am hoping this is not an expensive conversion, and getting rid of all that wet ply must have helped a bit:001_huh: Wait till it gets 1800kgs of chipper behind it, then we'll see how "quick" it is!

Are you offering me 30 quid for it Jonny:001_rolleyes:

I will keep adding pics as it comes along:001_tt2:

The spec so far is steel box section with galv 1.2mm tin, 1.25m high, incorporating toolbox(still on tipping bed), square sides(no sloping corners) hinged and removable, and open top to be covered with a net when chipping. Heres a few pics so far and i did get a good bit of the tin put on today, but if anyone has got any useful tips for the final touches, such as brackets to hang stuff, are you painting it pink, put this here etc, etc, fire away!

Ok, so finally got the start on the chip box on the ldv i bought a few weeks back. This was it when purchased, complete with plywood drop sides:scared1: Now they were HEAVY:001_huh:

Ah well, my mistake on both counts:blushing:

Mmmm, but i thought all 1972, 88" were series 111:confused1: My mate has a series 111 and its a 1972. Hence this one Craddocks have that says its a 1971; 71 LAND ROVER SERIES 3 88'' TAX EXEMPT EXCELLENT on eBay (end time 16-Dec-09 09:42:03 GMT) 109" like yours could be different though, and if im wrong i will stand corrected:sneaky2:

I have a BT360 i might sell if the price is right......

Just looking back at the pics, are you sure its a 2a, it looks like a series 3 to me:confused1:

Nice landy Mick, dont knock it, if you end up with it, look on the bright side, its tax exempt:thumbup1:

Chipper!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It seems that quite a few of Johns posts and topics tend to be less than tactful and sometimes devious, but as the guy is away on holiday lets see what he has to say on his return. Perhaps upon your return John, you could include in your explanation/appology the reasons for antagonising just prior to your vacation?

That deals in cash?

I wouldnt want to continue a "which chipper is best" theme here, i am more interested in why John would make such comments and threads, instead of being up front and offering his advice and none of this cloak and dagger stuff Perhaps i am wrong, and if so, i will stand corrected. I will be interested in reading a reply too.

Oh, and for the record, i have a greenmech

Strange? Mmmm, just found this after a little searching; Official dealers GreenMech Wood Chippers - Green Waste Shredders - Rayco Stump Grinders - North East - Cumbria - North Yorkshire Real low man, a little like the flippant comment on the Petzl Sequoia or Treemotion thread http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/climbers-talk/10721-petzl-sequoia-treemotion-3.html Perhaps you have a biassed interest in harnesses too? You really will not get on well here pulling stunts like that:thumbdown:

So, you were with me Monday and Tuesday, then did the Maple on Thursday, so did you have Wednesday off or was it a girly day:confused1: Perhaps catching up on a couple of perms?

Mine did the same. Had two seperate opinions on if it was needed (both LOLER inspectors) but ended up replacing it with bike brake cable. I did try it without the cable in, but it does give you a bit of a shock if you let pressure off it, then back on and it doesnt bite again:001_huh:

Says chat is full try later. Has been like it for a while now.

Just realised why its only blue sky in the pics; The camera man had strict instructions not to get the camera wet, so only came out in the sunshine:thumbup1: At least i managed to shelter behind the house when the showers came:001_tt2:

Cant understand why this is such a big issue; Just give him YOUR price and let him get back to you:001_rolleyes:
