  1. if the bars getting hot and warping, are you sure youre tensioning the chain right?
  2. if its possible to get it out the ground with the rootball attatched, its much more desireable
  3. cheers Mr Ed, i was half thinking that would be the case nevermind, got a new idea now
  4. id take a guess at high water mark maybe?
  5. could i not just keep the vehicle running? would that power pack be man enough to run a splitter steve? i'll ask the hydraulic bloke what he reckons when i go see him!
  6. ok is that simple/do-able without affecting the tipper? would the basic idea work? i.e can you power a decent hydraulic log splitter off a tipper?
  7. heres a question for you log splitter hydraulic boys. . . starting to convert my 130 to a tipper, seeing as im off to the local hydraulic bloke to get the power pack mated to the ram soon(they were sourced sepperatly), would it be feesable to have some quick release couplings on the power pack end, then be able to unplug the tipper, and plug in the splitter to run off the tippers hydraulic pack? the power pack used to run a 2tonne hiab, so presumabally its used to reppitive movements/continious work? could that work?
  8. dunwich was more than a village mate, it was a HUGE port and city 1500 years ago, 7 or 8 known churches near 20 suspected still under the sea somewhere, hospitals, schools the works, the old capital of east anglia, a truly amazing history. you want to go there when theres some winter storms, and go beach combing i grew up in sizewell, just below dunwich, one year on a stormy night we lost 3 meters on one part of the cliff! then it can go 10 years without the water coming anywhere near!
  9. haha drinking plenty too i seem to remember!
  10. looks good ian, did you get the woven idea from matey's chair next to rob d's stand at jonsies show?
  11. these? oak stump stumpery table sculpture wood carve on eBay (end time 07-Oct-09 20:20:32 BST) watching out of curiosity!
  12. how much did you end up buying it for if you dont mind me asking??
  13. i saw that on ebay a few months back! 2.5 diesel???
  14. thats an awesome truck that steve, and that box fits a treat, when you getting a grab then
  15. i think what steves trying to get at is if his competitor takes home and bins all their tree waste they may charge 500 for a day, steve can go in at 300, do the job slightly quicker thanks to his micro machines eliminating dragging/clearup time, and he knows he can make an aditional 400 out of the wood, winning more jobs as he's cheaper, happier clients as he's cheaper, and taking home more money as hes either got time to do another job, or split the wood SWB wins more jobs, makes more money
  16. we are, we are! have you any pictures of before and after youve done youre thing lee? say a year on? or am i thinking the wrong way?
  17. looks to be quite a few end of night blocks in there. . . as in chuck them on at the end of the night, and theyll still be burning in the morning
