That's very good, lifelike 👍

I can still see the panic in Sonia's face when he was talking about not coming on anymore "#### we are actually going to have to talk to each other again " He must have more time for working now although I suspected his text allowance has had to be increased 😉

6 for normal conifer 4 for hardwood as gives a nicer chip 3for full size timber 2 for micro chip if we are running out of room in the truck or need it to come out a bit more gently like filling the last bit of the trailer.

Visas looking pickaroon on top as well, home made?
-
It's brand new, should have been fine!

Top man, I'm only up to 150hrs on mine in 6month but it's only running when it's chipping, tracked machines will always have more because they have to get themselves to the job 1st. Have you seen the funky new features on the hill climber version where it has an electronic hydraulic pump so if the engine go's down for whatever reason it can still be tracked off site nd to a point it can be sorted, just shows they are really thinking!

You tried to keep up with the st8 didn't you, foolish on your own! Hopefully your good again soon, hate a bad back!

Surprised hannah didn't just tell him he was a prat and to leg it, must have been under orders to behave. Scary how a little misplaced knowledge could cause something very dangerous!!

The machine we had on demo had a similar tendency to not want to pull stuff in to the point we battled to get a bit of conifer in to no avail so started the quadchip and just fed it in much to the surprise of the rep. Not nearly as bad as your machine sounds but I was sadly very disappointed with its ability to pull stuff in aa was really expecting good thing after the truly awesome little quadchip. Keep us posted how you get on...

I got some cobra bracing sheath and put it onto the rope so it it's running over anything it can run through it to protect it, ours has had plenty of unsympathetic treatment and lasted fine.
-
That looks realy impressive!
-
Thanks for posting that, just ordered 2 box's to replace what we use now and give a bit extra room to add a few more specific items. Standard green box's just ain't up to being on site and very easy to miss and get forgotten when packing up, been looking for something like these for a while 👍 I'll pick up some stickers for the outside from Hallfrauds as sure I'd see them there before.

Might get some targets printed up nd start pinning them to trees in that case 😉
-
It's a shame that the demo wasn't better advertise as I only found out about it as was working in next village on Friday but by the time we got over everyone was packing up at 3 as very few visitors compared to what they hoped but still got to have a chat with riko about a oniar trailer and crane.

Do you leave a little advertising board regularly on jobs Ian?
-
That was a rather heavy load, 130 full of chip and chipper up a 30degree wet hillside nd she still pulled no problem 👍
-
Wish I could remember exactly where they came from as everyone else likes them, they were new milletry surplus but from where 😕 She's a good truck and we couldn't do without that winch for the sort of jobs we do. Another contractor had quoted to close the road and bring in a big crane to lift the trees out, bet that'd have been expensive!
-
Thisafternoon involved getting a few trees washed down against the bridge over the last few storms. Not a problem for the rb winch but not so nice for the lad setting the slings in the absolutely freezing river. We had the get rid of the stumps but kindly the landowner kept the firewood in exchange for lifting the stumps into the trailer for me to take away.
-
Creepy little tree face as well!
-
More wire netting
-
Nice old school grunt you have, really like the mb with those big winches, get some more pictures up would you?
-
No pictures - it didn't happen unless sworn witness statement from someone on site 😜
-
Could try Oakdale, they have a landy mount?
