Has anyone got any pictures of a winch fitted to the top of a hopper on a bigger chipper like a bandit etc? Or has anyone ever fabricated one at all and have some pictures? Many thanks

Does anyone run one of the older tow behind donkey vermeer grinders at all?

To put all out of their misery and anticipation lol I bought myself the r tech 250amp inverter mig the other week. They had a 10% off on aswel so happy days Not used it yet as going to get electrician to stick me a specific 32amp feed in

Right do they have a website? I'll have a quick search now. Just going to get rolls of each as you need stock and stores in this game! Not bothered about checking flow etc.... I run big inline filters with mesh inside and they're great

Managed to get all my filters etc online so far, can get belts elsewhere. Need a exhaust and tip and the 'Mushroom' induction type cover that goes on the inlet manifold / airbox inlet so its not breathing in pure crap and dust. Might be other stuff not sure yet. Have seen the right exhaust on ebay for 210 but no exhaust tip or the mesh cage around it

Does anyone know where to get decent fuel hose from? Some i've had in the past has been shocking for going rock hard, the see through stuff is crap also.... Had some that said for diesel and started laminating like the inner core separating from the outer! Got small amount recently from agri place and seems ok but would prefer just to get a full reel for the garage! Any ideas? most likely i.d 6 & 8mm rolls Thanks

Not yet, Only just started the hunt lol

Hi there, Does anyone know where I can find more information out about a 4 cylinder hatz diesel engine please? Looking to order parts online aswel if possible? Cheers

Barden biomass also but bit of a trek

Will do Gand, going to start having a ring round when I get a few names together. Cheers

Just wondering what price folks are getting for wood chip in the Northwest? We are located Barnoldswick on the Lancashire / Yorkshire border and will be looking to produce more chip. I've seen some rubbish offers out there as low as 4.00 per ton. Is there anywhere or anyone that pays a decent price? A ton of chip must be easily near 3 cube of chip so prices are taking the piss. Looking for somewhere within 30 miles from base etc Any contacts anyone? Thanks

Timber cutter Dartmoor would most likely have the gear but doesn’t come on here anymore

I’ve just bought an 881 and it’s an awesome saw, always used a 660 on a 36” for years but the 881 is a totally different thing! Hell of a saw to dig in and pull through the timber whereas the 660 you have to lean on it. ideally they’re both different and depends on your need…. On a harness 660 all day long! On the deck… 881 wipes the floor with the 660. still love my 660 and the 881 (which in fairness I did not want to buy but so glad I did)

Where do people get there bits and pieces when fabricating? Hinges, brackets, tie down points etc I don’t mean consumables I mean the actual parts etc I’ve asked a couple of people for a price on putting some barn doors on a trailer of mine behind the tractor but they’ve not got back to me. Would be looking to get some hinges so I can make some barn doors that swing right around and lock in up the side of the trailer etc…. If there one thing I’ve learnt is you can always rely on yourself and not others 😔 I am More than capable of these works just short on time but will have to make some 😁

Been there done that with my 252 aswell. Right sod grinding down sid of pocket and disc to cut the bugger off. Silly size Allen key also is it 12.5mm 1/2"? Sheerd bolts on pockets.... Also ripped the tooth holder off a pocket before.... Just broke clear off

That's how it came across to me eggs.

Cock ups yes.... On days to do a job etc.... This is a **************** up... getting a mewp or piece of equipment stuck to do a day's work and then charging a customer for a full days rate of productive work? When you got bugger all done Your instance should be a bollocking for site foreman and you suck it up as a business owner... Come on. Your in denial

I'd ask what's going on Ben.... Esp with that last episode you posted about... Is there any similarity that you can be honest about? (Pushed for the work? Desperate? Client pushing you?) Charge him for the day that the mewp got stuck? Ohh dear even thinking about it is imo daft..... Did he say you had to use that specific route? If so charge him. If you drove where you want.... Suck it up. I'd be wondering how my image and reputation is being seen and percepted at this point Word travels fast. I wouldn't deal with someone who would charge me for their f up

Sorry I didn't know you wanted a full on survey conducted.... With my experience of quite a lot of courses there were some very poor candidates that did indeed pass. Laughable. Are you an assessor by any chance? Or a training provider 🤣

So mostly agree money grabbing interfering pricks? I'll tick this box anyhow lol 😂 Most main issues are the nptc assessors not failing some of the shite quality of lads coming through. Most likely these are dipsticks that hurt themselves and **************** it up with red tape and bullshit for the rest.

Is that offer extended to all And your right. It's about targeting the right people but so hard how to work out who that is. Once of a day I thought council work would be good. I've been there and still do some. It's not all it's cracked up to be and certainly not wack big prices in as they will take it.

Clip boards and pricks is aim D at the origin of the actual scheme and the AA.... Callum Duffy is obv a man who's made a system for its application which from above feedback seems good, but is a financial benefactor from impending scheme. (All the best to him)

MOre quotes means more tossers.... It's true.... Parish councils and town councils are a pain in the arse .... Think carefully and target carefully

Problem is building firms can be bad payers and go bust..... Last building firm wanted me to stick my arse next to a HV line and remove 2 trees. I said needed shut down or not doing it. They were very forceful and wanted to pay up front etc and get it done as had a team sat about for a week. They then said if I wasn't cis registered would deduct 30% at source.... I said well I'm not quoting and your not listening lol 🤣 Someone else did it 2 months later with a shut down .... They rang me up recently and I gave them a.dressing down and reminded them of the situation and whoever it was that had me on their system to remove me and not phone me again. I'm miles smaller than them but obviously my health and safety and awareness is miles better! I'd say take a look at where you are now.... Even though you want to go further you may be doing greater now than ever .... If so.... Reduce your overheads. Keep up your prices and quality control is the best way
