i gave my groundie a right "telling off" a couple of years ago when driving in our lorry, with 3 strong blokes in, 2 first aid kits, fire exingushers, ropes, mobile phones ect, he point blank refused to stop when we saw a car in a ditch, people inside, upside down, and just 1 person helping he was and still is an idiot to put it mildly well done for stopping dave, sounds like a start to a joke-'a policeman, paramedic and fire fighter are in volved in a crash . . .

Rob D is a member on here who is one of the, if not the only uk supplier of alaskan mills and pieces, really nice chap, if you look on the alaskan mill sub forum i posted earlier on in this thread, you'll see his posts with a link to his alaskan mill website. go on, buy buy buy

i say go for a 36 inch as most people have a 36inch bar/have use for a 36'er other than milling, and you can use a small bar on a big mill, but not a big bar on a small mill! you also dont get the 'bar drop' when using a big bar on an alaskan, unlike the logosol. and the alaskans much cheaper! so much so that you could also get the mini mill-to square up the edges of a plank if youre realy fussy, and still have change! if you get a really big bar, you just need to buy longer rails. you wont regret it, theyre great fun

heres youre answer Hi All, I am Martin Lucas and run the sales and marketing at GreenMech. I have been with the company for just over 2 years and tend to visit Arbtalk to see your comments. Re: The Yellow machines- To put your mind at rest, we make all our machines on site at our factory in Alcester and colour is not a problem. We are a Cat Allied Vendor Supplier and the Yellow and Black units go out to Cat Rental dealers in Europe. You can have any colour you want if you let us know. PS. The Powder Coating and Primer we use has just passed the 1000 hour salt spay test as used in the motor industry. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/members-only/2229-welcome-forum-you-86.html#post248735
