  1. Well made a bit of effort and got on with the project again made some extensions which fit and work well and give the pto shaft a comfortable overlap and even gave it a blast over with some paint to hide the years of being stood outside, with valtra on running about 750 chips like wild and fair pulls timber in with hardly any rpm drop on tractor.

  2. Had a break from the fog and rain in the woods yesterday and got a few nice pictures of the light filtering through around the landy Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  3. Looked at getting some for my botex but only Wilson do 1 big enough and at over £750 didn't bother as was just going to be for loading chip every so often Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  4. Agreed 👍 Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  5. Try this again, reset all settings so should be viewable on all devices unless your in Japan because of copyright on music apparently Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  6. What you viewing on, not that it should make much difference. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  7. Got a video to put together on the winch itself and a few modifications i have made so it works in our normal setup Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  8. Interesting, sorry to hear of a death but not being morbid but would be interesting to know more details. How come in large tree felling including fc sites I believe it's exeptable if not encouraged to have a wedge man present to assist in the felling of the trees? Would also like to see a winch that can carry 60m of cable to keep it out the danger zone which for most of this site would have ment placing it off site. One thing that makes our working a bit safer and far more efficient is being in open Mike contact so can talk through as working so everyone can be aware of what is going on.

  9. Ow yes, though I'd just specified you but if iv excluded matty as well I'd better have a look at the settings when I get home and reset 😜 Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  10. Yeh rite, like that happens on a real site with real prediction targets! Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  11. Latest video in forestry mode for a change, contracting in to deal with trees to big for the harvester or on the steep hard to access sections of a site. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. I'm in, thanks for keeping going with it. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  13. Never found they helped with traction on a banking but ment you could travel up at an angle without falling over which made it easier for the machine to climb. On wet ground it ment the front didn't sink at all and really made a big difference to general ground damage being avoided but turning without unlocking 1 side was slightly harder to do. Only got stuck 1ns bad enough I couldn't wrestle it out myself by hand but I think no matter what machine you had it would have got stuck in that spot without boards down and anything bigger would have taken more getting back out. Had seen a picture of a 252 that had been converted to tracked by mounting on a large Barrow undercarriage which looked a really good idea and could be a lot cheaper than getting a whole new machine should you decide that's the way to go.

  14. Have you ever tasted dog food, got to have something to take the taste away... Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  15. What if the hokey kokey really is what it's all about! Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  16. Can't argue with that logic 👍 Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  17. Why do dogs chase own tails Why are pot noodle pots so big when you only fill them half way with water Why at my age do I still find fart jokes so funny Why why why Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  18. Looks more like south an x had in her bedside cabinet! Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  19. Oooo that's so nice! Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  20. If tax is your biggest outgoing you ain't playing the game rite, get a better accountant. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  21. Wages, definitely wages which is why I like investing in equipment that can cut down on manpower and still retains its value. Insurance is also a massive outgoing with 4 vehicles and 2 tractors onto of public, employees, plant etc. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  22. Depending how you want to transport it this looks good Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  23. Back in the spruce for the last two days, big fury edge trees, plenty of winching out from where the harvester can't go and the joy of thick fog today, pictures taken when it brightened up a bit. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  24. Thick fog aswell as the rain made today interesting as when you dropped the tree you realised you couldn't actually see the tip clearly anymore. Sent from my D5803 using Arbtalk mobile app
  25. Your not Including the extra damage to a wet site that could end up needing reinstating. Forwarder has been running the track through our site all last week with very little damage even with climbing tracks on, today- torn to shreds and rutting even the hardcore!
