Thanks! It handles it fine, although its very flat here and ive not used any other pickups on my trailer to compare it to. Ive toyed with the idea of getting a yank truck which would be better for towing, but the hilux is the best allrounder for me.

Looks good!

Good thank you, very busy, been hot and dry for 6 weeks now, serious drought (the only "water" has been the snow melting) and forest fires all over the place!
-
Good to hear from you Stefan!

Ive started removing myself from the tree groups, i'm actually too mature for them!

Well despite the snow hanging around and now a drought, temperatures hitting 35 in the shade at home, and 45 up in the sun on the decking a few weeks ago, everything’s growing ok

Nice one Rough Hewn! Few years ago I was on a project and the other climber came from 5 hours away, he'd turn up late monday morning (fair enough) and tent during the week, returning home friday eve. I get tired of people moaning about being quiet on the work front but won't travel more than 45min!

My sons nursery wanted some new benches at their fire pit, quickly made this, with thought to that the children normally kneel on the ground using the bench as a table when eating to determine the height

Exactly, the point i was getting to. Vesp implied previously that wood left lying about was fair game, free for taking. as it had no value to him, yet mentioned to some it has value. Great if you're like vesp and appreciate people taking wood, not so great if that wood was of value to you. The person helping themselves to the wood, won't know if its a waste or a value product if theres no one to ask, so IMO its not "fair game to take it as its lying around" Personally i put up a post on a local facebook selling group in the morning, chip, logs, free delivery to anyone who wants it.

Exactly “to some” it has value, hows the log goblins going to know if the wood stacked at the side of the road is valuable to that particular contractor if it’s just “lying around” without anyone around to ask? Brilliant idea to offer free wood to the goblins though.

Nice! I’ve often thought of doing similar

Out of curiosity, does Greenmech charge any extra for a special colour?
-
I buy kit from the U.K. and make a substantial saving...

What'd that be, 3m3? that'd be about 900kg plus a few hundred extra for the tipper body?

Anyone got any views on the ability of a defender 130 crew cab carrying a 700kg grinder on the original buck? On paper its fine, but in reality? With focus on drivability/how much it'd sit down?

Done a quick one at the start of the year, theres honestly naff all between them, both awesome saws

Why on earth would you do that?

Can anyone help with belt tension on a Bandit ZT1844? The manual talks about hydraulic pump belt tension. But nothing about belt tension for the belts to the cutter wheel? Im guessing its a generic page for the rest of the range which is all hydraulic drive, but they seem to have forgotten the ZT1844 with its belt driven cutter wheel? Thanks in advance! @GlobalNewark

Twin axle versus tri axle trailers - pros and cons?

Tilt bed or flat bed? Ive seen kranman operator here is repairing his very flash lightweight lightly built tiltbed. In "our" line of work it needs to be relatively heavily built imo -

A mates had both 230 and 280 tracked and will be going back to the smaller 230, lighter and more nimble which can be important in domestic gardens. Ive a 530t and a mate a 540t, 700kg difference and he’s commented on the better maneuverability of mine. paul, where in Colorado are you going?

Yep, really happy with the site Steve done for me
