  1. Got a 7 year old 200t that gets used all the time, yet my 2010 one stays in the box love the 2005 one
  2. depends how straight it is, and how decent lenghts you can get from it, bars and rails etc.... anything 6" down or bent all over is logs Probabilly to small of volume though
  3. They will check your credit rating and want a deposit.... I started off with a vermeer 620i woodchipper... rated at 5" but wouldn't take it! It would do 3-4" though and was a great chipper! i paid 1700 for it, used it for a year and got 1700 back for it!! Some people don't have great experiances with 2nd hand chippers but others do..... Good luck
  4. never really thought of an hourly rate, always price on stump.... Maybe subbing yourself out with it then hourly rate... And it wants to be up there at 40 an hour! if not a tad more

  12. Hi there, going to have to make a firewood store for this comming season, i need to be able to split the logs, stack them and then leave them and not worry about them getting wet! What type of log store would be best? Apex roof? or just sloping roof? Does there need to be decent overhang of the roof say 3 foot at the opening, and a foot to the sides and rear? Was hoping to just get some posts, then some rails and have gaps between the rails, say of 1", Is it better to have a long thin log store to allow the air to penetrate all the logs or is it down to space? Whats the biggest area/volume you would stack and be happy with the amount of air that would circulate through it? Also do you build so the wind will blow straight into the shed? or blow the side so to speak then you don't get the rain blowing through? Want to nip this log store in the butt! as its giving me stress Any help greatly appreciated, Stressed Chris
  13. Anyone else know anything about the 1412? Or would a ford 7700 be a better bet with the knackered cab? Both would need money spending on them either way..... David brown in better condition cosmetically
  14. pm sent
  15. My 990's a belter Hydraulics are good
  16. Its a bit of a can of worms really isn't it There is also a ford 7700 for similar money but cab is knackered really... wonder if its possible to revive the cab, and if this was a safer bet.... hmmmm?
  17. I believe there is a fault somewhere with the transmission on this one, no gears, would need investigating...
  18. Is that it? its a 90 odd hp turbo tractor, 80 hp at the pto...
  19. Just wanted for a project but maybe on the road towing etc, maybe pto chipper etc
  20. Anyone know anything about the 1412 david brown? Are they any good? Anyone know anything about the hydroshift gearbox's? Cheers
  21. Wonder if its worth trying to knock one up.... Bucket on my tractor is only 3' 6" long Do you mean make a saw horse with a little ramp at the rear, the logs roll down it into bucket?
  22. One thing also is that i want to make the logs uniform in length, so i can say to customer that the logs are 9-11" long Can't be helped with the rings but the lengths can all be cut to the same size.
  23. I do like the sound of the saw horse into the bucket idea! Maybe a good put on or trial All suggestions greatly appreciated.
  24. I'm building up each year.... probabilly 20 cube this year.... got about 8 ton + to process yet for next year.... but will be bringing more in no doubt to stick into next years aswell... Also going to stack timber this year oppose to just throwing in a pile!!!
  25. does it need the converter? what is a converter? there's a hiliki pikkie on ebay for 1300 quid.... they seem to hold strong money 2nd hand... maybe too strong
