  1. Tony who did body on my truck will make some as long as you need as long as you can carry them somewhere, light and exceptionally strong, he did some 10' that you could pick up with 1 hand but hardly flext with a car on them. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  2. The red and white 250 looks good but the baby blue looks a bit pants, just get dirty on no time! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  3. Looks well muddy on that show field, Wellington 's a must have fashion accessorie that day. Doesn't matter how much you love/hate work non of it matters when having a daddy daughter day :thumbup: Nice stumpy too, let's be having some action shots soon. Will it fit in back of bang tidy to get everything to site in 1 trip if chip is stopping, be well handy if it will. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  4. Twas wet, very wet! Found the zigzag is very effective at getting the water out of the roap as you decend and depositing it strate up me sleave, lovely! As normal Paul ran the ropes and nearly had a flying fox moment when I took a little more than I should without a capstan :what: So glad that trailer was well built as just crashed the timber strate into it no worries! sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  5. No but I'll get Mrs to do it then it might actually work this time :'( sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  6. Well done bud, hope to have a few hrs free Thursday afternoon to mill a bit redwood for you and a yew trunk that I've been tripping over for months. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  7. Don't use your vehicle on his job, simple, his job his truck, your job your truck. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  8. Arbtrolly for brash and light timber where inline dragging through narrow access is a must and get the tracked barrow for bringing heavier stuff out from awkward places with less restrictive access. Would love something like a boxer but don't need it often anough to justify. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  9. That sir is about the best answer any1 can give, a job takes as long as a job takes with the kit you have, and costs you what it costs you to do it. Outers have different kit, faster climbers bigger trucks that might do it quicker but overheads are higher so so will there price so don't worry is someone else can do in a day what you need 2 to do it doesn't necessarily make them cheaper. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  10. Got 2 X 2013 saw and both running faultlessly (so far) after I had such a bad time with a 2012 saw that almost sent me back to the german side, mind you mine all run on aspen so fuel quality is no longer a considered problem. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  11. Definitely not burr material which is formed by adventishus buds(spelling dubious sorry) these as as said old stubs and pruning wounds that have sealed over from reaction wood or callous timber as some call it. Not worth a fortune but some hand carvers like it and depending on how sound the timber is in the centre some turners like em for strange off centre turning projects. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  12. Falcos? Chipped my helmet with the crane feed once.that was annoying as wasn't allowed out the tractor cab all day as was on a construction site so hats on out of cab policy, shame :-P sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  13. Iy that's the 1, can't be having the landed gentry getting chilly over the weekend can one sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  14. I suppose a chipper with a heavier fly would be better as smother and with the pto being driven through the gearbox as apposed direct from the engine you'll have the gears to progressively bring it up too speed. Disadvantaged is risk of overloading rear axle unless you find a trailed pto chipper. Bob, where did you get the pto box from and is yours the 7.5 ton model or the 5.2? Pictures? sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  15. Possibly not as tough as my stretch airs but much more comfortable. Hear you go bud, this is what I was doing at 9 last night when you text me. Emergency woodchip delivert:thumbup: With a bit of luck we might have some bracing to do in the bid cedar infront of the house. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  16. Not sure if the take off on these were ever intended to run anything requiring the amount of tork a chipper will as most had only a hydraulic pump or oversized alternator fitted. I'd be wary of doing this unless you have found someone who has and proved it works and the gear box is up to it. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  17. A fuel flat is nerveless finger spelling for falt, not my worsed miss spelling I'm sure :what: sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  18. They could be hung in a photographic art gallery, like the panoramic a lot. Also like the bar maid, easy to get distracted when ordering drinks.
  19. Lots, it sounds a right pain of a job. No other way to get it into a neighbours property in exchange for some free cedar firewood and an easier drag. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  20. Come on Paul you've kept me guessing all day and teasing with odd picture glimpses, did you make the top? Dried out yet? sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  21. That's not a nice image you've put in my head omt. Thanks. Almost agree but should serve it's porpoises. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  22. Got it from same place you took picks and loades of picks on here if you look at silky thingy or my evolution thred. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  23. Good strong arb trucks but like you said about the iveco only justifiable if you need the off road capabilities or the excellent winch they come with. I need both so good for me but sometimes crave the comfort of something less rugged. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  24. That must mean a transit You off to arb show this year (sorry to derail your advert) will have to have a catch up some time? I'd have that landy off you in a flash but saving penny's for a project vehicle later in the year. sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
  25. Can't believe your selling that beauty rossco, upgrading or downgrading? sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.
