Gray git

No point, landrover...... Would have had to drive 20mile just to start getting warm. ;-)

It was the 'you are due compensation from a recent accident ' person I kept going for a while. But then went all Mr paranoid conspiracy theories voices in the walls on them. Soon told me I was beyond her help and hung up, never had another call as I think I'm down as "nutter do not call" on the system. Twas very funny for all in van as had it on speaker ;-)

Just manned up and got on with it, rather have the sun as must have ended up on my arse at least 3 times dragging brash up that little slope!

Sat having lunch in t shirts, glorious sunshine then within 10min this!

Wish I had a spare 6.5k for that, the way old landys are selling with them not making any more is only going to increase in value as long as condition is good.

I use the 18mm stuff cut into 2ft squares as outrigger pads on cherrypicker after destroying ply ones in about a fortnight. And have about 6 6mm ones as ground protection, excellent stuff!

Sod ply, splash out a bit more and get stock board (the black plastic stuff) initially more expensive but virtually indestructible and won't splinter or soak up water, easy to clean off and flexible to mold to ground contours.

:thumbup: What works for 1 is crap for another be it type of clients, local access, topographic and money available and what's available locally to hire in when needed.

Looks tidy and professional, like that You'll be taking a trailer I guess for excess grinding or are you hoping to mostly sub to others and let them do the tidy up?

Must have just mist you as called to see what was there just before lunch Some of that cedre and chestnut would fit your new chipper as well to get yard tidied up.

Like mike I'd have that in my house but the wife would think practically and mutter on about cleaning.

The new husky hi viz is very good, had to get 1 as I forgot my helmet 1 day but saw shop was just down road so got 1 to try and even better than the old 1ns.

Fantastic, bet you slept well that night! Also see you have seen the light and joined the husky club ;-)

Best grinder, see picture. As for price, just make something up and hope for the best if it's just grinding but if it's part of a total tree job price go just about cost as a sweetener to get whole job.

Petzle do kids rock climbing helmets if you just need a shell without defs, try go outdoors they had them last time I was in at quite a sensible price.

NFU special vehicle policy for the road so not likely to be a problem with them.

Time we tidy out all that crap timber I've dumped in your yard over the last year, must me a good 10 - 15 ton there for starters. ;-)

Anyone tell me what the score is with bull bars or whatever you want to call them on landrovers? Fancy fitting this to the 130 cherrypicker so I can get some extra lights on front and get a winch fitted for next time it sinks Check out this item I found on eBay: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=171715065259&alt=web

So apart from nursing a hangover anything good planned for today? Happy birthday bud

Yeh scraggs they're the ones I am looking at as seem to be one of the strongest on the market while still looking good. Want to turn the landy into a real head turner as a working tool and advertising statement.

Problem with genuine wolf rims is you can only fit standard skinny tires, I'm also looking for rims that can carry a 130 cherrypicker but give a bigger footprint and help reduce how much it sinks on soft ground. Got 265 75 16 on the 130 twin cab and even full of chip it hardly leaves a mark but it has started to buckle the deep dish alloys.

Some hungry trees from the last two Day.

I think yard space rent is just so variable because no too yards or persons needs from that space are the same, if your smalland only need a bit of storage and can fit in a bit of underused space on a farm and give a bit of rent some logs and the odd helping hand it's easy to find a willing farmer but as soon as you need better access say for timber or chip waggons to get in, hard standing, covered storage space and are actually using the are as working space there not many who ain't using this already so want and need more for it. Location is also a consideration, both for security and nescience factor, can you only make noise between 8am and 5pm without pissing any1 off so no fixing on a evening or all night firewood sessions. You might get the perfect place at the perfect price but then council come along and say you need to pay a ridiculous business rates amount per year, in our case for 1 yard we were about to go for this was more than the rent which made it unviable.

How do you find it stability wise with duels off, got mine same time as you and haven't had the need to take them off yet.
