  1. Nowt wrong with a bit of riggley tin.
  2. Few carvings done today for a school and arbortrolly showing yet another use.
  3. Fantastic build quality and ability but probably the worst finish on the market. Capable of clocking up thousands of hrs but look like they have done just that after about a year. If you can go for the 220 as the extra size makes sense, almost looked at 1 myself.
  4. Sweet, rings already out of mine as it's a 540xp so just need a spare crab and sorted 👍
  5. I like that darrin as I spent to much time cursing my saw lanyard when taking it off when I'm using saw from the mewp. Skyloteck I guess have them, yes?
  6. Yeh but this 1 is 73k but was 80odd a while back 😜
  7. But then it'd have be quite a short 10min film instead of dragging it out for over 9hrs.
  8. Jims your man if and that's a big if you can find him. Think craig Johnson still carries out inspections as well.
  9. That's for a 2nd hand 1!
  10. Legend in his own lunchtime that lad, buger broke my ribs once when he landed on top playing rugby, great oyk!
  11. At least he kept the family safe Property can be repaired.
  12. Some of it looks little flimsy and not much cop for doing arb wast timber but if you had a market for softwood logs or doing slabwood it'd be ideal.
  13. Used 1 quite a lot, old version but hel of a tool on the rite job
  14. Tressel at either side and a lay your ladder over them and run the mill on that to give your parallel top and bottom cuts, done it before on very curved bits of timber and works well.
  15. So are landrover's really, I have 2 but at least you can fix them yourself and parts are readily available and not really that expensive compared to mog parts.
  16. Every time you put up a video it gets me thinking about getting a M7 now I have room to leave it set up inside the yard shed and start making use of some of the smaller hardwood we get instead of just the big stuff with the alaskan mill. Think if I get long term tenancy agreement sorted with landlord I'm going to build a upstairs office/ baitroom /storage space which could just justify it to mill all the larch in the yard that otherwise is going to be chipped for biomass.
  17. All finished today and 986kg of clippings going off to friendship Estates to get something extracted for cancer treatment. 650kg last year so big increase and this little bit of plastic might be part of the reason also less time as didn't need to rake the hedge top 😀
  18. Not sure what this 1 is but it's quite a nice picture .
  19. Anyone else seen this video David put up of his home flooding in a freak storm. Hope you are all OK and the home didn't get damaged. Let us know how you are doing if you get a chance and see this. https://youtu.be/usP0-G2ldW0
  20. There was 1 knocking about up our way a good few years back with a hiab on it which looked very substantial and the bloke used it to lift oil tanks into place off the trailer as could nose in somewhere and lift it over the front into place, always thought a lightweight timber crane like the farma crane Wilson's put on the ifor would be good but not massive reach and could run off a hydraulic pump on the transfer box like my mewp. Buger, now you've got me thinking again
  21. Well if you can mount this on a landy and lift 240kg to 14.5m you should get away with a reasonable size crane, I'd always go for 4 legs. Thought about something similar with a landy 90 and a nice folding crane so maximising what could go on the trailer.
  22. Flying carpet Long reach hegecutter and a lot of stretch.! Couldn't do it without these as well
  23. Only the single sided blade models I think.
  24. Will have to check that in morning as not actually sure but it definitely makes different having the 30"cutter and catcher plate.
