  1. how good a salesman are you? its not just down to giving a price
  2. my tracked chipper set on fire a couple of weeks ago on a site, thankfully there was an 8 tonne machine onsite that could lift it onto a trailer, i wouldnt have wanted to do it with a much smaller machine
  3. Winch and round fence posts, easy Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

  5. Yesterday mornings oak reduction of upto 2m Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  6. Put your handbags down please guys, this thread is rapidly going nowhere Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  7. Because he's not used a grcs enough Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  8. Deer stalking and rabbit/fox control as well as working on our small holding Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  9. 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
  10. 10 tonne
  11. Farmer, but would look to take a few stalking clients a year over the ground as well
  12. boxers customer service is awfull but they are fantastic machines ive got a flail mower on mine and its great for knocking back areas of scrub but tracking speed is slow if your thinking or cutting large areas
  13. I suppose you've not really had value for money out of them yet You can tell your northern Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

  15. 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
  16. 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.
  17. And your point being? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  18. If I'd seen you I'd have said hello, though it wasn't my primary concern when going to the steam fair Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  19. Yep here for the next few days Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. 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?
  21. My latest tractor purchase Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. the cover taper is a bit different for Sirius, but youll work it out or il take a picture
  23. hey joe its easier with a wire fid Sirius is stupidly easy to splice though
  24. how are the sour grapes?
  25. 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
