    SAW that!!!! 😂😂😂 You just get funnier and funnier with age Mick.

    Loads. It’s in the country.

    I’d be more frustrated if I’d had to handball it all!
  5. Mark Bolam
    No, Joe is spot on. The customer wanted to keep all the wood and move it himself, so we bust it into handball sized lumps. He changed his mind when he realised how much there was, so called me back in. I did try and tell him….

    Drew Bristow would have some good ideas about this I’m sure, but he doesn’t get on here any more. You could try contacting him on FB?
  7. Mark Bolam
    Sounds like a great idea. Get some pics up and I’ll LOLER it for you.

    I use a KM94 combi head with a hedge cutting attachment. The last few outings the vibrations have been savage. The AV is never the best on these things, but it’s noticeably worse than last season. I can’t see anything physical wrong, and the head is greased, with sharp blades. Any ideas?

    Only in France, EU regs etc…..

    Is anyone climbing in one yet? I’ll need a new harness this year, and this does look very good.

    I think they’re both good saws these days tbh, just personal preference.

    Loading and unloading is a doddle as well…. IMG_6667.MOV

    Update on this. I had a very kind offer from a member on here for a similar trailer that would have been perfect. I was saving up to do that deal but a mate offered me this Indespension Challenger for £1k which was simply too good to miss. It meant a bit of a rejig in the workshop, but everything fits now. Twin wheeler tows really nicely with or without the loader on, and has scrubbed up nicely with a few new bits. Thanks for your input as always gentlemen.

    I would say that your house isn’t in any danger, but they are a bit of a mess. Fine habitat though!

    It’s very much like making love to a beautiful woman Mick.

    Echo 2511 hands down.

    Which part do you fancy Dean? Mr. Squirrel on here is often looking for climbers, he’s in WA.

    So they were there when you bought the house then. Pictures and tree species would help a lot. For instance 40-year old oaks won’t be a problem in your lifetime. Usual developer crap like poplar and goat willow might be.
  20. Mark Bolam
    You’ve got that arse about face. Developers shouldn’t be allowed to build houses near trees. If the trees were there when you bought the house then sympathy to your situation will be low.

    Because slow workers have rights John. He possibly did non-competitive sports days at school.
  22. Mark Bolam
    About half way mate, so yes. You can flick the lumps forward by tilting the grab as well.
  23. Mark Bolam
    Overloader.

    Sometimes it just all falls into place mate. I trust you had a good catch up!
