Dean, just looking at the post on new chippers. Thought i would say i have had the bandit 75 out on demo and really was not impressed by it. We have a vermeer bc200 which is classed as a 7.5 inch chipper as is the bandit but with only 35 hp and not 45. Our vermeer out performed the bandit by miles, Bandit havent got it quite right yet.

Charlie, you dont even notice the winch on the front, also get them to make the bracket to protrude out the front of the truck so you can mount a tow bar or build a bumper on the front. all very useful.

Hi Charlie, the winch is the Warn m8000i with a radio control. the mounting plate was from teubenreuter who supplied everything. I fitted it myself but its very straight forward. Great investment and opens up so much more choice on rigging systems.
not much change from £1300 though.

Hi John
It all depends i suppose on what your going to mill. The 48 inch bar is massive and will mill anything, but to be fair its possibly too big. I will get a 36 inch bar at first, and you can always get the extenders for the mill should you want to go bigger. The 460 with the 25 bar is good for smaller stuff but not really great for overall.
I bought my 880 form listers in Ciren for £820 i think just last month. They also price match as well so go in with a fr jones cataloge!!!!
Anyway let me know if you want to come and have a play, got a good bit of walnut that needs planking.

Hi John
Just read your post about the alaskan mill. I have one for my 880 with a 48 inch bar on it. I also have it to fit the 460 with a 25 inch bar, both have ripping chains. If you want to come and have a play in the yard one day to see how you get on let me know.

Hi Dave, Im also Dave, i am based in Gloucestershire where i run my own business Theocus Arboriculture. I jokingly put on your big or large thread i would come and give you a hand if you needed.

Good to meet you today John, was a tad damp but i think worth while overall. We managed to get a fair bit of interest etc which is always reassuring.
We must try and get a SW meet up one day.
Regards

Hey Pete its Shep, hows it going down in Brisol? Just thinking ahead, i am guessing the student climbing championships are not at Capel Manor this year but quite enjoyed working as a technician so if your in the know and could give me a heads up that would be great to where they are. Hope all is well. Shep.

Hey chap hows it going?
Just been reading your piece on lack of work, i am in the same boat at the moment, a few jobs but nothing much, had had an idea of a xmas tree recycle, shame we didnt get our heads together and set something up locally together, bit for us a bit for charity etc etc. Also do you guys have a stump grinder, i may have a feww stumps that need removing towards the Evesham direction.
