Stickerapp - pretty good value for limited runs.
-
Get the GH equivalent - the Ifor all-welded (as opposed to riveted) trailers are the dog’s danglies…
-
You sent it away 18 months ago and haven’t had it back?! Wowsers! When did you first chase it up?

Ground worker with Sherpa loader available Cheshire area
monkeybusiness replied to carver83's topic in Employment
Lee (the OP) is a top bloke, I thoroughly recommend him and his services. -
I’d definitely suggest you get a decent demo of the boomer loader before purchasing - I’m not saying it won’t lift that but I’d want to know for certain it could before parting with my money personally. There can be a significant difference between claimed figures and real-world lifting capacity, particularly as the centre of gravity of the load moves forwards of the tipping point (as in the case of pallets/IBCs etc).
-
How are you going to load that log into a vehicle/trailer/onto a pile with that grab? It might drag it closer to where it needs to be but there’s still going to be some manual handling by the looks of it (and a second area full of sawdust). That grab looks handy for dragging brash through narrow gaps, but I can’t personally see much other benefit.

Stein RC3001 Bollard and Winch system
monkeybusiness commented on Mark Bolam's advert in Arborist Equipment
Yes please Mark, PM sent -
Show us pics of the whole tree - that’s ace! Incredible how trees adapt and stay upright.
-
I love the fact that KTM demoted him (to Gas Gas, which they own and is essentially the same rally bike but isn’t marketed that way) and he beat them! (And KTM could really have done with a win as Honda have dicked all over them for the last few years…).
-
Looks good - I’ll follow your progress with the Sany with interest! I’d suggest getting cab guards if sending it out handling timber…
-
Farkinell!!! I bet that was a bit ‘5p 50p’…! Glad all involved are ok, I was anticipating a tree-felling incident gone wrong story, yours is a bit too real-life though!
-
How?! Sounds a great story (providing nobody was hurt)…
-
Took my 12 year old with me today to knock a couple of trees over that had been left because of bird nests - I let him wedge over his first tree and he loved it!
-
Won’t carry much chip though!
-
OP - buy a 3 litre Iveco daily. They are the best tow vehicles available.
-
I wouldn’t worry about it, he’s a right old knacker!
-
I don’t think it’s a shampoo. You might be better with TFR to get all of that shit out though…
-
Good news! Who is the dealer, as they sound like complete muppets? The issue was pretty obvious, even for those of us with no experience of anything made by Grillo…
-
For an ancient old fossil you have a distinct lack of grey hair. Just for men?…
-
And charge customers like a wounded rhino for your time/knowledge/expertise in situations like this! It’s a no-brainer, get refreshed and upskilled ASAP, it’s a great bolt-on to your existing business.
-
That’s how we use it, and it’s a brilliant resource!
-
Check the front wheel arches under the seats and the step area for rust on the Cabstars - they rot quickly in these areas.
-
Ace, thank you!
-
Evening all Does anyone have a contact for a hedge flail contractor in Colchester by any chance? I’ve got a day’s work for one next week and would prefer a recommendation rather than take my chances on Google! Cheers, Dan 07970188050

That’s shite Les. Someone local who knows you/the location you of the bike I’d imagine - it’s only been nicked for a bit of a laugh/joyride. Get asking around, offer a reward and go and crack some skulls!…
