    yeh the perspex stuff is good, got one of my cab rear windows made out of it, also window at front of chipbox is 12mm perspex, really tough stuff, has to be good to have woodchip flying at it everyday, just wants a wipe after unloading chip and can see through it again.. helps having father in law working at a reservoir model testing place where scaled down tanks are made with huge sheets of the stuff, hmm theres an idea.. how about a perspex chipbox??

    without turning this thread into a 'i've got less money than you' debate.. i really could do with a year of spending less and working 7day weeks, but the kombisystem is sooo nice and would do loads of hardwork and make so much money, SLAP..NO! no way, mustn't....spend.....money...
  23. armchairarborist
    yeh true, laddo keeps tellin me that, can't spend anything this year though... (spent too much last year) all that might change if i get another creditcard and go to apf show

(told customer it was both) to prune on monday, already wasn't looking forward to it as last one we did left brown stains inside my tailgate.. had to laugh when it disappeared from the firewood pile, no doubt staining someones choppingblock, axe, wheelbarrow, woodstore and stove haha. dya think it'll make good woodstain though?
