sorry to hear what has happened, its such a shame there are people like that in society I have a lock for when the chippers on the truck but also a bulldog hitch for when its off. this sort of boxes off the area hoping to get one of them alarm wire locks that sets off a 120db alarm. Again sorry for your loss

Evening all, I'm on the look out for a log splitter. Don't do a vast amount of logs as only been self employed for a year, but i hope to improve on this. All my logs are arb waste/ brought from the job. What i have for starters is, a jcb beaver hydraulic pack, and a small trailer. I want to make a towable log splitter, to take to jobs etc. I have seen a few others use hydraulic pac's to good effect I have been shown the log splitter they were using and had it in my watching list on flea bay but it has dissapeared It was a good splitter and 445 inc delivery There are also oxdale tm400's for sale at 654 inc delivery Can these be used horizontally if a chanel is made for the logs to sit into or do they always have to be used vertical? Are there any other suggestions? Thought going for the oxdale may be the better purchase as may last longer? Cheers all on any info provided Thanks Chris

what size diameter is that pipe?? Cheers Good looking truck and good idea

Sorry no, its an invaluble tool, You can give it a try if you want to see if it has enough power? what size are the wheel nuts on a mog?

Snap on are really good i have one at home as i used to be a mechanic. It was something like 470 odd inc vat Think there something like 350-450nm so its at the top end of its abilities. Nice and fast charging, comes with 2 batteries

Sip freedom C's Pants of my choice!!

There are requirements also to enter the isa cert? i seem to reccolect you need a few years experiance or so, i'm sure i read something like that when i looked at it a while ago....

Been planting whips, creating a hedge and a plantation, staking and fitting tubes all week Good to know some get planted back rather than just removed was a good feeling!

so they are:blushing: just checked lol oops

That is definetly nasty, very lucky bus driver there! Is it the owner of the tree that is now liable for what has happened?

ahhh, but there's a few different ones, whats the difference? And a lock jack isn't it just a cord you lift up to let line through? what sort of braking is there?

:thumbup1:I'm only just thinking of trying the hitchclimber and v.t, its only been sat in a bag for the last 5-6 months lol spiderjack looks good! I'll be interested in answers from this thread They do lock jacks that start at 70.00 don't they in jonsies, not sure what theyre like.... spider jack looks good i'll say again lol

i've got the local one in my phone ready to ring, i'll give them a bell in the next couple of days, i have a couple of small chip sites but they can't handle many loads so its good to have a handfull then you don't have to move the chip far do you and its hassle free giving it away if people will take it

ahhh, yeah on the back road, will give them a call! Good thinking, keep meaning to ring up local golf courses but i'm sure they don't have wood chip paths etc....

i wouldn't be bothered about that, it may just knock your speedo out a little.... could check with a sat nav

Chris watsons will have loads in, just go buy a few wheels with tyres with good tread, straight swap over when you get home ahhh, on off road ones..... hmmmm still worth a call though

i'm located near colne/barnoldswick so wherever isn't much of a drag knowledge of chip sites allover is good though

There any lancashire way?

Does the job have to be a decent size'd one or over a certain amount of money for you to start including terms and conditions? 150-200 + etc cheers and do you always try to get in writing? i have some t&c's given to me to look at

Hope you priced it well

The back isn't strictly just ally, it has the steel uprights for the dropsides to fix to and steel plates down the sides, but the drop sides are ally and the floor is checker plate

Hi there, I recently changed my truck, not mechanical reasons etc just wanted better steering lock, bit more updated looks, bit better brakes and central locking etc. Now my old truck, i changed the back on it to an alloy back, behind the cab there is space for a 19" stronghold box for tools, then there is the tipper back. Its a good truck, old 2.5 transit engine but turbo'd and its a good strong tipper. Just considering my options, 1, whether to remove the back and keep it for my new truck. 2, sell with the back on as more saleable. I weighed the truck the other week and it weighed 2150 kg, thats with me at 70 kg and then my extended sides on and a head board! so it weighs in the region of 1950kg - 2000kg 3, just keep it as its bought and paid for I must admit, i do get attatched to things and struggle to let go sometimes will put up some pics if necessary, just after some opinions

How many of you are there lol
