  3. Didnt ask your opinion though Dave so no worries
  4. I should have gone for the 3000 before they stopped doing it! The new ones gone up 70 quid from 350 to 420 now i think!
  5. Yup, its a pain in the arse watching the groundies remember where to run the rope each time they try to attatch to a moving bollard. Makes me wonder how people learnt to tie their boots in a morning!

  10. Idler roller bearings on tracked chipper!
  11. Shouldnt have read this thread ita bound to happen to me now lol good luck
  12. Nothing wrong with venting. It seems now a days most companies dont care after money has changed hands and back up is poor. Ive come accross some really poor conpanies in this industry. Its no good being dissapointed with a new product youve spent money on wether its 50.00 or 5000.00! Hope you get it resolved
  13. I bet it needs sharpening
  14. Good price but too far for me, i need another 20 or so
  15. I run a gd105 think its a great trailer and like you, i like the larger wheels and still quite a low load height
  16. When it comes to running your business and your machines... Do you prefer to run older machines Do you prefer to run new kit as in from brand new Is age just a number? When do things like chippers and grinders become redundant to you? Just curious on how you all think
  17. I put this down to lack of maintenance. You cant run a vehicle and not do anything then moan when mot comes round and it fails. I mean come on brakes are serviceable items you must gave known they felt rubbish
  18. They start to die the day they come out of the box, usually 12 mths theyre not looking good and uts nice to try and get them to 18months lol
  19. My mf30e here Recently put some trailer front wheels on so doesnt sink in the chip pile and just on with putting some weight on the back
  20. And whats worse than conifer.... Holly, now that can knacker you up on capacity!
  21. I wouldnt worry just carry on. I had some joker ring up last week ringing abouy prices etc, it felt like and you could tell it was someone in the log game, hillarious the lengths some will go to
