I ended up with this not long ago
-
What's minimum sized digger worth while on a shear? I take it 2.6t etc pissing in the wind etc got for 5t plus for better reach etc?
-
Go on then. I went out an bought another house back in late 2020 that's rented out. Fingers crossed get another this year though things are way above what they should be.... that said, what I thought was dear last year is cheap now ! 😞
-
Lol 😆 how do you not know some folk on arbtalk allready do that now lol 😆 😂
-
2-3 years later folks.... hope some changes have been made over this duration 😀
-
Yup bloody loads of tractors under that weight
-
Just waiting for them to let me do my wagon licence in my tractor and trailer then ey 😉
-
500 quid is cheap compared to a flywheel for another machine I priced up not long ago! Go through it properly if going down this route. New bearings job lot
-
Nice Paul, you using a rotating grab on digger or just manual grapple? Like the new chipper 😀
-
One thing for sure is its a funny old world at the moment... has been for a couple of years. People need to cut back where possible and live within their means. It's a struggle for all on all levels I would have thought.
-
Bang on there 👏 😀
-
No but if you go back hard or further you start to get gaps.....
-
Looks crap to me... sorry to say... maybe a bit harsh as we didn't see before pic.... Syc are hard and a pain to do if going back too hard....

Awesome guy he is! Makes me fancy going over America and ditching all these shite restrictive rules over here

Anyone help with hydraulic valve name and where I can get one please?
swinny replied to swinny's topic in Large equipment
Tried dealers but still nowhere 2 days on. Need pics sending in. So thought I'd post them on here. Basically it's just a device where you turn the dial and that bottom needle lifts up or screws down..... Shame I couldn't get this freed up to make a top and handle for it. It's got to be a standard part as only screws into spool block -
Can anyone help me with this please? This is supposed to be a turn dial type valve to affect the speed of flow of hydraulic oil.... specifically the sweep speed of a grinder.... The top has gone missing on this one a long while ago but I'll attach a pic of what is should be etc.... I would think it would come as a full unit and screw directly into spool block. Any help greatly appreciated! As with all these things it's about terminology and knowing what they're called so you can search! Cheers

Snapped pine at the base today resting on a small building just what I needed this afternoon lol 😆
-
Shin up that bastard and cuddle it if necessary lol 😆
-
Can you buy the winch tray for the safetrack machines from gm? Are they a decent beefed up thing?
-
After trawling through pages and pages of replies, it seems the general opinion is that green teeth are the way to go 😀
-
Just wondering what folks are running on their predator 28/38? Not ran multi tip for years and I believe they are 15 quid a tooth now? Where do people buy their multi tip teeth from? Also seen rhino teeth as an alternative. My other thought was green wheel. Larger investment for starters then cheaper teeth and 3 turns. wheels 420 ish then pockets and teeth to buy so maybe another 200 quid ish.... Also out of curiosity... what are the wheels made out of? could I get someone with a laser cutter to make me a fresh wheel up out of steel? or does it have to be hardened or some other process? Cheers
-
Does look a fair chipper like and certainly not chipping match sticks lol 😆 wonder what lifespan is on a chipper like that when feeding big lengths etc all the time...? This is my bigger trailer. Big enough for me. Think it's 25 cube can't remember
-
Nice trailers them. 36 cube. We have an friend that shifts chip for us with one. Like that chipper but I kept looking at it thinking if it shit the bed I'd want to be far far away from it!
