Good evening Bob, just showed the pics to my wife, a farrier also. First thing she said was that's a Christmas bonus sat there in the value of the scrap shoes. I guess it depends on the price of scrap at the moment though.

I think there is a company in San Diego that does right hand drive conversions on these

Almost forgot, got a few now

My wife is a farrier, when she started her apprenticeship the lad above her had Dyslexia but after years of being knocked back by other bosses because although he was a good worker he was 'too thick for college' (he started with her boss in 1997) The boss had said if he wanted to achieve something he could, they just had to find out how he 'ticked'. The lad was great with numbers but got muddled with spelling, though with the right help he went on to be the top of his class. 13 years on my wife still works alongside 'The Boss!' and they now have a lad with dyspraxia...completely different challenge. He is a very likeable lad which is what has probably got him this far and his hand eye co-ordination isn't bad but the brain gets in the way and muddles things. When he started he hadn't been diagnosed just seemed a bit of an 'air head' once the pressure increased it was clear there was something not right and the learning support at his college had him diagnosed. It has helped in his teaching in that when he can not remember what was said the day before or can't seem to see what should be obvious, they can remind themselves he can't help which lessens the desire to chase him!! He will have a very hard time in his life as his basic life skills are difficult never mind the very technical and highly theoretical nature of his chosen career, but on the plus side it has meant his younger brother has also been diagnosed before he starts secondary school so hopefully he will cope better. It is doubtful he will ever manage to run his own business as he does need someone looking over his shoulder. My wife has said he is the biggest challenge her boss has ever had and it has driven them both to distraction as they both want him to do well but she says give her a dyslexic any day!!!

Phone rings...hello, I have a tree...how much to fell it?

Aye and maybe remote control just for fun

Could be a useful bit of kit? Quite similar to a HiAb I think.
Hope the link works.

Second batch bought, all for a good cause with the added bonus of a chance of winning something new and shiny.

Seen some total lunatics on the A9 over the years, think that would increase if there were average speed cameras. Consider it signed.

Not too sure how to put a link up, this may work.

Try artcom-tradebridge for info, from memory I think they're the UK dealers for scottrack

I drive past the Norpower yard pretty often. Yesterday there were 4 mogs, several tracked carrier machines (one with what looked like a large hi-ab) amongst other machinery. Would be a yard that someone could spend time having a good look around

There's a good book titled "101 Whiskies to Try Before You Die" by Ian Buxton It's worth a look and a good challenge.
Also, if it can be found, Scapa 12yr old is a very nice dram

Just for fun N5

Cheers for your thoughts Chris.
No, not looking for mega production, just something to work away with for myself and folks.
-
Cheers for your thoughts.
That was one thing I noticed, no powered infeed.
Had a look in the interweb and as you suggest the new ones are pretty much double the price.
Will have a look at it working before I decide.

Cheers for your thoughts.
I guess most things, splitters, processors etc that have a donkey engine are slower than those run off a tractor.
Would you say £4.5k is a reasonable price for it?
-
Evening all,
Looking for a bit of advice...found a second hand Japa 300 road towable processor, 2 and 4 way split. It's a diesel Lombardi engine, key start and a 2008 model.
The guy is looking for £4500.
What are your thoughts?
Thanks all in advance

Could anyone tell me what this is? It is in his landy, ex utility. It looks like a tax disc holder but has a wire on????
It could be an external aerial for a mobile phone?
