Good on ya for having a go mate you should have started a saw and said they must have fell on it!! the economy is not that bad that all of a sudden everyone is turning into thieving barstewards what is it all coming to:thumbdown:

Great find Tom i have not seen that in ages a great movie. apart from the scene "make the man some eggs"
-
You could not fry an egg with the fat on him The one where he holds him self out straight "the flag pole" my judo instructor use to do them until he got his new hip hes 74 !! it was mental
-
That snake one is really cool, it would be nice to be artistic and talented.
-
Yeah Frank i should have removed it and smoothed it off but its too late now as ive just sprayed it and i aint doing it again:001_smile: Apbell i think the chances of you getting a good older one are slim as those that have them keep them!! The new shape look nice and as said above better cup holders swings the deal:thumbup1:
-
No padlocks, i disconnected the handle so you have to reach through a small hole behind the passenger seat to open the back door, parked at night it is tight against my fence passenger side so you would have to go in through the drivers door cut through the timber bulkhead lift the saws cutting the wire first, whilst the alarm is going off, still only a deterrent. Detracted from the thread a bit there i like mine and just put two new wings on it and sprayed it, it looks fine.

Mine is an n reg and ive had it for about 6 years its still not done 100k and ive all the mots so i got quite a good one, i have the back of the crew boxed in and all my gear is secured via a locking wire, i dont like the roller doors easy opened i reckon,its quite heavy though empty with me its 2450kg so can just carry a ton, i work close to home so can tip twice a day if the need arrives.

ohhh "28 deers later" ...........ill get my coat!!
-
I have an old shape one does me great just keeps going and going, folk say i should update to a newer model but i like the devil i know, cheap as chips to fix and since its serviced and maintained regular, walks its MOT.

Robert_S replied to Stephen Blair's topic in Large equipment
looks good mate, i am sure i could have work for one of them as more and more clients want to keep the chip but i aint taking it back out the pick up for them!!! That bandit is a beast. cheers for posting the video mate if i am ever down your way would it be ok to see that wee chipper in the flesh? Robert -
one i done a while back, i have done a few bridges some with the alaskan mill felling the oak on site others bringing everything too site. Dont have many pictures though its something i have only started to do on a regular basis.
-
Superb mate the client must be happy with that, you may not like hedges but you certainly take pride in cutting them
-
You should get one for nothing, take down that big elm with it then write a review!!! Thats a cheap bit of advertising right there for the woody and you get one to keep for your trouble

cheers man, sounds like they have a place in the tool box, yep do that trick with the green but today i had 8" off a hedge with very little wood just green and it was wet!!! Are these small chippers drum chippers? i can see a real advantage for a lot of my work with one of these. -
That is what i was revering too.

Welcome felix, now get away and split some wood:001_tt2:

Robert_S replied to Stephen Blair's topic in Large equipment
Nice work Rich i liked how you used the chips. How do they chip wet leylandii/privet do they not get choked up with being so small? my camon sometimes gets choked although i put a pipe on the shute and hook the blower up to it the leaf is soaked that gives it extra blast -
Yep got soaked only as far as my skin though:001_smile: Have you to chip and clear that site Tom or is it getting left as "habitat pile" i like wood wasps:thumbup:

Robert_S replied to Stephen Blair's topic in Large equipment
Can you get these small chippers into the back of the truck via a ramp say or do you have to carry them on a trailer, i like the idea as some of the jobs i have done the brash had to come through the house, never nice, to take the chipper to the brash and leave it on site would have been excellent.
