  1. Have you considered a pro-tipper?
  2. Have you replaced all your milk with the coconut Steve? I take it, it tastes coconutty? Is it good for you or a substitute ?
  3. I find eggs in smoothies makes them nice and frothy.
  4. Or a whisk:thumbup1: Ben do you just shake the egg:confused1:
  5. Just seen this on the news:thumbdown: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-york-north-yorkshire-25759830 Is anyone on here close? Hope they get it out asap.
  6. Pictures would be great, I remember David putting a video of it when he got it. A roof mount could be used on the OP's farm aswell:thumbup1:
  7. Nice chipper, Groundie needs bigger muscles to stick that through in a oner!!
  8. The jokers terrifyingly good:thumbup1:
  9. Press and see! I doubt you need the clutch but still be gentle with it. Nothing worse than hearing them getting banged up and down with a foot flat in the floor!
  10. That's the ones you want, then if its a mess, blame the last guy
  11. Reindeer tastic, very nice
  12. That's brilliant! It will be in Aspen Bobs yard by the weekend:biggrin:
  13. I'll get it back up, it will involve splodging around in the mud, with wire ropes, a big Tirfor and a lot of using my digger in anger and running back and forth:biggrin: I just need to try and stop the wire rope cutting in through the root plate as that will loose leverage. I just hope when it rights it doesn't snap the only roots feeding it:sneaky2:
  14. After a monsoon day, we got this. I had to grab a coffee and mars bar and enjoy it. It was amazing how it lifted the spirits of the folk walking sling the prom and in the cafe
  15. This oaks been down for 2 years, i was hoping it would pop back up but no joy, I'll go back with the tirfor on Friday. She's been in full leaf the last 2 summers so hoping she will be a fine pollard and have another few hundred years in her.
  16. At least he's ok. I wonder if any of thr fireman have their arial rescue in trees?( except for the tree surgeon fireman)
  17. Too much weight Johny on the back axle I would think. It could be made to work with a bit of fabrication. Then there's trying to get the spout past the crane. It would be best to move the Hiab to behind the cab if you wanted a rear mount chipper. The Chippers on the best place at the front. That crane is a demount and it's made the same as the chipper mount. So that chipper could clip on the back and just take off the reverse gearbox and job done.
  18. A real mechanic will fix it no probs. Any time we have a query a quick call to AC Price and job done! And if your stumped stick a thread on here and the world comes to help.
  19. I'm the most basic of climbers and riggers. As others have said, start off simple. The most complicated bits getting the slings and crabs back up. Rich that's a brilliant idea:thumbup1: , it wil be perfect for Huck with all his stubs:laugh1:
  20. I've done loads of jobs like this by hand. It would of taken 2 guys a very hard shift, and they would make more mess walking back and forth all day compared to the machine. My jobs will be getting done to suit the machine now.
  21. Private rd on an estate mate:biggrin:
  22. Not cool!!!!!
  23. Today's horrible job made easy. 1 tank of fuel with the 026 and 3.5 hrs sitting with the heaters on
  24. I bought it at the APF 3 years ago for £2k plus vat delivered.
