On the hunt for a tractor and timber trailer
John Shutler replied to Gardiners Tree Surgery's topic in Large equipment
If you had the perfect trailer for every situation you'd have at least 3. I'd start with a 10 tonne drop side trailer of your moving Arb waste. Grain trailers are good to chip into if needed and moving smaller pieces of timber ie chogs carried out of a garden but you loose lift capacity on the larger lumps. Timber trailer is awesome for bigger or longer pieces As Al mentioned look at wilsons for a complete setup or else find a tractor and take it to wilsons to have a crane put on it (if you want botex) you'll probably be looking in the region of 20-25k to put a crane on a base unit Finally spend as much as you can then a little bit more Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk -

good video paul Ive used my GRCS for about the last 6 years and in that time have never used the fixed bollard, infact its sat in the same spot it was unloaded in the rope room. there is a nominal amount of wear on the winch bollard from negative rigging but not enough to affect winching performance the tightening of the strap looks better on the smartwinch and it would certainly avoid the leaving the bar in the yard or onsite phenomena that occurs from time to time

it looks like the DMM impact block from a distance I had a good look at one at the AA show, im a little dubious of the quality, and its certainly not even in the same class as the DMM let alone like the DMM one in terms of performance the safe working load is the same as the red isc block, but weighs it weighs 90grams less than the isc id be interested which performed better long term, and id put my money on the ISC.

all these suggestions about digging them out are great, but what do you do with 21 acres worth of stumps when they are in a big pile, and all the holes to fill in?

Nobody said you were thick or doubted your ability as machine owners or operators, maybe take a step back, take a breath and realise it's not always a personal attack Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
