  1. Wow, awesome, fantastic!!!! That would be worth a visit for sure:thumbup:
  2. That's the Rolls Royce of timber, just watch for shelves!!
  3. You might get it up a drive in width, but unless it's gravel you will be lucky to get away with the weight. John you have the Boxer, it can run everything with in 25 feet of the trailer and the crane will lift it over most hedges, walls, sheds etc. The Valmet will pull 12 ton easy, now a 12 ton trailer full of wood is actually about 4 ton.
  4. 5 on a rope, fellity fell, 15 minutes!! Glad to see you've got a proper hair do Nick:laugh1:
  5. Happy birthday, nice T shirt and that must of been pretty emotional aswell !
  6. Once you get a hydraulic pump it opens the door to a hiab aswell.
  7. I would get a pto hydraulic pump put on it chris, there's 4 points on it 1 can go I believe, then you can run hydraulics to the front for a better winch and snow plough option, then in winter run it on Cherry:biggrin:

  13. A good job done, those big Pickers are great, I jumped out 1 and forgot I was clipped on, if I was 1" taller my toes would of just touched the ground, hero to zero and I was wedgied beyond belief!!!!
  14. I could here myself puff and pant with my old Prussik trying to do that!!! Nice video!
  15. All good, always smiling, just a little moment of reflection:001_smile:
  16. That's the tool for the job indeed. Nice beards man!!!!! I lost a good friend Garry who was a real Beardy man, he was known as Big ZZ!!!! I have a Gandolf woodcarving in my garden that's getting on, we bought them together at the Lockerbie APF, he got a big version of yours. That's made me quite sad thinking about him, but he never wanted any tears at his funeral so it's deep breath, man up and I am off to kill some poor innocent trees:biggrin: Happy chipping fellas:thumbup1:
  17. My mog has a rear mounted hiab, chip box, no back arms and a pto. I want front mount so I can use hiab and pull trailer . Pm me a price for your reverse gearbox and if I go down that rd I will contact you. Thanks Stevie
  18. Just had a bagel with jam, feeling a bit queasy now!!! Pictures work, I'll dig out my silky cut and hand split later.

  20. Hi, has anyone on here put a TP or any other standard pto chipper onto the front of their Mogs using a reverse gearbox? It's been covered here and there but would like some fresh feedback from actual users, cheers:thumbup1:
  21. Depends on how hard the climber works. The harder you work, the more you should eat, but it needs to be the right stuff. Just stuffing our faces with calorific junk will just make us crash and feel I'll , oh and get fat! If your eating the right stuff and going at it, without spikes then I would say 4000-6000 calories, if you wear spikes, you can do what I said you shouldn't in the first paragraph:biggrin: as long as you have enough strength to carry a 046, then alls good:thumbup:
