david replied to Stephen Blair's topic in Large equipment
steve whats your new toys name? have you tryed giving your chipper a piggy back yet to see how it fits. hope it dose your job ok -
steve youd be better to see the one you want before you buy. wouldnt know about the jcb as it looks a bit heavy altho it dose have hydrolic tip which is better than the falling over tip system that your one on ebay and my honda power barrow work with. tracks are always messy when you turn, how do the muck trucks compair?

some simple maths: 8ft = 2.44 metres 5ft = 1.46 metres 1ft 10ins = .558 metres therefore a 8x5 filled up 1ft 10 = 2.44x1.46x.558 = 1.9878 cubic metres of logs near enough id say now children :001_tt2:
