  1. Did a 2 day job yesterday in 1 day:thumbup: so...we have a day of chasingthings up today...firstly, drop off the Iveco to get lockers fitted...the same place where the body and paint job were done...great lads..very proffessional. Saw the old body is stored there in new condition and is available to anyone who wants it. Its all aluminium and its vital statistics are...80.5 inches wide...97.5 long and 16 inches deep high sides... next we are off to ARCO to have our stein T-shirts done...
  2. Okay Rob:thumbup::) and Jim...thanks. yep... if you liked the Zig Zag. Then you will like the ZZ2.
  3. You may need your long jons aswell Mick....its a tad chilly up here for you southern belles:p:p
  4. Matty F wanted to know what the problem with the TW190 was Chris..my thoughts are that between the Tree...you...me and the Iveco....the chipper is the only thing that is slowing down our productivity...it doesnt seem to deal with curved unions (small ones at that! )...I hate spending any longer than a few seconds staring into the hopper:rolleyes:
  5. Mick give me a heads up when you land here...it would be great to see you again...I can show you my new home and we can go to a real Pub!...you can meet the big orange truck...and of course the Boss (Chris)...look forward to a week of evening Ales and a good laugh!:)
  6. Your Gravely is indeed a great chipper Clive!
  7. Great advice lads!....interesting Stephen mentioned Greenmech....I used one on a trial years ago and didn't like it.....then spent a day with on last year and it was Awsome do I can see they have come a long way since then....very capable....TTman I also think a bandit would be worth a look:thumbup:
  8. It is dialect Felix....west country twang...rather nice.
  9. ALBTALKERS!....an important day is nearly upon us...on Friday my thread will be one year old...I never immagined it would be of interest to anyone....I was just desperate for work and seemed the most pro active and positive thing I could do to resch out for help....ive said it before and I shall ssy it again...I couldn't have done it without you lot...I really felt the positivity just on the ammount of views and this was the confidence boost I needed and has found me where I am now......in a cottage.....on a hill....in Northumberland.....my advice to anyone wishing to find their Nirvana? Never settle for second best for yourself...it's your life and life is short, So make the most of it! Nearly a year ago I was staring at the ground of a dirty London Street.....and now at this moment all I can see and feel is the Infinate Beauty of Mother Nature!
  10. I like Jensons...used a 540 tracked when I worked with Johny Walker...great chipper:thumbup:
  11. Thanks Jon...was wondering when you would be along...you can catch either me or Chris on here anytime you wish:thumbup: you're alwsys welcome me old mucker!...p.s how's Gordon?
  12. Looked at it a moment ago Dan...a 9 inch chipper would be better than the Forst 6 inch
  13. All the saws are Stihl Dan and Gustharts are the local dealers and great chaps they are too!...so point taken:)
  14. Steer clear of him Chris...he's a bit mental:D:D:D
  15. Second and last question Guys....Husqvarna 3120XP versus Stihl 088? Which is better?
  16. Question to anyone out there...what do we replace the 190 with:confused: Vermeer turntable 9 inch chipper? Would that speed up our productivity?
