I can see a fair few marks on the lawn... or was it just squashed grass that came back to life after a rake had been run over it? Sadly most the the people we work for wouldnt entertain the idea of driving on there lawn with that thing, although it still looks awsum

I also saw the one at kew gardens, looked to be based on a TP woodchipper looked a very usefull bit of kit. Like SWB said would make a good set up to someone with a tractor, or a mog maybe. Chip into the mog and the tralier.

Towing ropes, tieing down ropes, light lowering, light pulling lines, if you have enough they make a good "bounce" for dropping stuff on. I always keep mine, never know when they might come in handy.

I have heard of this happening, but my grandad spends every dry day during harvest on the combine and told me its just because your dealing with a product that is very dry (corn/straw) you only ever work on dry days (usually hot) plus a large machine with lots of moving parts which get hot. So the fire risk is high.

Combines can go up in smoke so easily, as for the john deere... its a john deere, never been a fan lol

Hi mate just seen your going to cannington next year. I'l be back there in september for my third and final year completing my ND, dont be afraid to give me a shout on here if your in need of help with anything. Not sure if you've gone ahead and bought anything yet but the college has a day where different kit suppliers come in and you can buy your kit, think its october time. Personally i wouldnt buy your kit on this day, but use it as an opportunity to try it all on and see what size suits your best, and what trousers/boots you prefere. Once you done that give jonsie (f.r jones) a shout on here and he will sort you out. Hope that helps, and see you in september!
