  1. Ones I use are 5ltr....
  2. Yup. I use these.... 1 for red diesel for machines, 1 for chain oil and 1 for engine oil..... bloody good but flexy spouts snap eventually. Still very good ๐Ÿ‘
  3. Hebden Bridge? Going there in the morning though not my up of tea
  4. Lovely up there. Was working there a couple more month ago and back again for a day this month
  5. I'll be off to chipping steam fair for a browse round allsorts in May. Great place. Engines, tractors, diggers graders, allsorts. ๐Ÿ˜€
  6. If I ever give to car boots I always go with a wedge of cash.... don't go much anymore but a recent visit to a couple and there's never owt interesting anymore just tat ๐Ÿ˜ž
  7. Yup.... I only needed a big spanner once and that was a good few months back..... borrowed one for that job then bought a set!
  8. Don't know owt about them in fairness..... Still in their boxes. Bought from Dick Leighs. Online with balmers at same price
  9. Who's doing the hair and make up for the fashion shoot? I take it fully clothed too? ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿคฃ
  10. Will be yes
  11. 266 plus vat per headset
  12. I'll have to flog my current digger soon then ๐Ÿ˜€
  13. 24410 plus vat New kubota kx27 is 28600 plus vat Haven't spoken to anyone else yet
  14. I'm all up for charging what you can but I meant asin for instance..... I can do a stump for 250 quid, you could do it for 250 quid also but your fuel costs are either on top or eating out of that . Who's going to come out on top and more brass?
  15. That there is exactly what it's for. That extra muscle on site ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ‘Œ Why won't the yanmar run a flail? I know someone with a yanmar and they do.... I just saw the sany as a contender, otherwise it will be back to extortionate second hand which some are 2-3k above what they should be at the moment!
  16. On the bali website. It clearly states that hmrc has classified domestic tree surgery in private gardens is classified as horticulture and can continue to use red diesel
  17. I know what you mean.... I've run an old 252 for years and now got this predator it doesn't go out ... done a few jobs recently that the 252 wouldn't have fit in aswell..... 252 might be going at some point I think! I like them. Just fuel on bothe the 38 and zt are astronomical dri kers...... how can you allow 70-80 quid a day into your rate for fuel and still be competitive? Just putting pressure on yourself there I say.
  18. I think they're Chinese.... not fully looked into ins and outs yet. Nice yanmar engine. They seem to be getting more popular
  19. You can continue on red on domestic works
  20. Go on the fb pages and see how the yanks are having issues with them. Mainly running issues.... maybe it's their fuel but lots have issues with the efi... I spoke to predator a while back and they said that the p28 and 38 had very similar torque, just that the 38 ran higher rpm to achieve that thus drinking more fuel. I bought an older p26 in the end. I like it. If they still did the 28, rx and dozer v Blade ๐Ÿ‘ After that I'd want a vermeer sc60tx ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  21. Be interested to know what was up like but I wasn't that impressed with them when I tried to buy a chipper off them. Chasing them to spend a good chunk of brass, couldn't be arsed nor had faith in them in the end
  22. Has anyone had any experience with the Sany diggers at all? Are they any good or best to stick to main stream? Looking at the 2.6t range currently and don't look a bad thing.... enough aux to run a grab and rotator standard. 82lpm hyd flow and 42.5 lpm at either aux. Suitable for a flail etc? Or is it just Chinese and arse drop out on resale? I'm not a heavy user and it's a lot of money but 2nd hand arnt looking all that appealing! 5 year warranty too!
  23. Did you say tirfor and stumps? What a twat this was ๐Ÿ˜ž
  24. Ouch lads! Hope all make a good recovery...... Just makes you realise that we are just soft jelly objects with a few bones to hold us together no matter how strong etc we think we are. Mend well
