  1. Try uk power networks ask for the local surveyor giving them your post code
  2. Start by telling us where in the country you are this will then decide who your local power supplier is you can then get onto the line clearance ops
  3. Avant make a three point linkage it’s quite easy to adapt to Vermeer but given avant quite expensive buy a mounting plate and make your own a morning with a grinder and welder would probably do
  4. What is the benefit to using a battery saw ? Surely if you need to use it that much or continuously petrol is the way to go
  5. Risk and method statement for works
  6. You can get shafts made for acute angles we had one made for our alpine I think it was a double cardan.
  7. I have a Cormidi loader totally different machine, looked at a kanga but didn’t have lift or flow required and on demo it got stuck where our avant on wheels didnt !
  8. Try the micro bull depending on which size you are after
  9. So what is the estimate that it weighs given the dimensions?
  10. Does running a generator to charge the battery to run the saw make life difficult? just use a petrol saw far easier to carry
  11. I have a man with a lathe and mill can make anything, provided you have one to copy or a drawing
  12. 4 mine was more than a mini but twice as useful loader, tractor, and two different skips, but all dumpers are undervalued
  13. Trouble with greedy boards they wear out the undercarriage quick
  14. I think the dumper works twice as hard as a digger so why buy cheap
  15. It’s a true one tonne dumper I reckon not a bad price decent undercarrage are not cheap
  16. Wood from the local farmer more metal than timber in some cases not even worth being paid to take away

    Fencing cost

    If you are doing domestic fences think hard about an auger and check your insurances you WILL hit services and that is costly
  18. Not a bad place to work but in the middle of nowhere you need transport to get there not easy running a vehicle on £18000
  19. Take a drive in one we are never buying a transit again admittedly they are not cheap
  20. My hot works insurance cost me £450 per year no bottles in buildings other than own workshop, not more than one bottle of each gas on site, fire watch each time used, BOC training 1 day every three years. My policy has been running for 17 years and your are right if I change the insurance will be very difficult to get tried changing couple years back premiums were horrific nearly £2000 just for hot works, this includes angle grinders
  21. Have a look at MAN they tow 3.5 tonnes and good weight carry plus 4x4. If needed
  22. I have both propane and acetylene gear, grandson lives in the states works for the navy been telling me about oxy petrol, reckons it’s cheaper and better will cut through air gaps and standard nozzle will do 100mm thick also easy to move just oxy bottle and gallon can of petrol seems to be used in Australia, China and USA
  23. Acetylene can explode if you drop the cylinder
  24. It’s in the states shipping no problem
  25. You can cut up to 300 MM thick which is Lance territory
