  1. Always the same! You have to be able to drop everything and go look asap. I spotted a fresh chipper on ebay I was going to buy back end of this week just gone. Rang and was sold! Gutted too Anyhow you were doing better than me as I couldn't afford that jensen ๐Ÿ˜‚
  2. They look OK but not sure on size of Infeed feed roller inlet etc. Considering they're no longer made I'd rather have a bandit esp with the cylinder lift and crush. Always get parts for the bandits, can be a bit slow and expensive parts but last a long while
  3. Bloody spoiler ๐Ÿ˜‚ not been on YouTube yet
  4. ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm a Yorkshire man.... half it and a cock less you'd be right
  5. C&c equipment also good if you like bulldozers etc and repairs. They show you the auctions they go to also ๐Ÿ‘ God knows how someone knows what their bidding over in USA with the auctioneer talking so fast!
  6. I'm too poor to be able to watch it live.... I'll check YouTube tomorrow I don't follow it but am interested
  7. Good is snowball ๐Ÿ‘
  8. Jumped in my tractor the other day and yet again the bastards have nicked diesel. Fuel light on.... took 40-45 ltr to turn light off so estimate maybe 80-100 ltr gone that time.... and maybe 8 weeks ago poss 50ltr gone that time. Wondering weather to get a metal cage made got around my tank, solid metal with a access lockable hinge lid to get to fuel cap. If you put a lockable cap on the tossers will trill the tank. I'm considering some of the night life / nature cameras? Find out for sure who it is... pretty sure we know who though as has been coming and going for years Owt else I can try? Farmers using me as a scape goat and won't let me park tractor down near his where cctv is.... they drain his digger and my tractor but doesn't touch his tractors due to being in front of cctv I've never contacted the police on any occasion but was miffed the other day when so much went. The odd 25ltr drum now and again not to bad but takes the mick now
  9. 0 % finance at the moment arnt they?
  10. Weathers been shite since Xmas. Such a crap start to the year in fairness. Wetter than an otters pocket
  11. Endless reasons for a dc 4x4..... Where I live in winter and where yards is I wouldn't be able to access it. What about site jobs where we go with the dc 4x4 and 3 lads towing tracked chipper? Surely it's just new vehicles registered from a certain date?
  12. Is this just for brand spanking new ones?
  13. Is this purely for employees using double cab pick ups as perks? What about company owners / sole traders who use the pickups as a 2nd vehicle to tow to site and for support vehicle? What's the crack then? Is this a storm in a teacup for me or is it time to get shut of the pickup and buy something else? If tax o ly goes up 100 quid a year so be it but horrendous amounts they can bugger off
  14. Maybe late 80's but definitely early 90-mid 90's Should be able to get parts no issue
  15. You keep saying that so hopefully the 50p someone put in you will soon wear off...
  16. .
  17. Avant Wheeled loader Brash Rake - Forestry WWW.EBAY.CO.UK Avant Loader Brash Rake. These will fit the full range of Avant models, as well as Multi-one, Cast Loaders + more... Good lad this lad is. Pobs make it with the barrel on if you ask
  18. Yes the guy made it heavy ish so grabs it and let's go a little so weight of rake loose in the grab then rakes along. Awesome on digger woth rotator. Rake a big area I without moving
  19. How much are they mark? No price on website
  20. Guy on YouTube uses one like this modified woth a barrel welded on so can pick it up like the klou one
  21. These spot on on rough grass then for Ash dieback grenade etx then? Like Mark I wanted one with a barrel or cylinder mounted 90 degrees to the rake so I can grab it with the grab
  22. Sure he's the chap that got my old mf 399 then
  23. Can't remember John's last name but is he Lincolnshire way? From recollection.... if so spot on real nice Chap!
  24. Fat bottom girls you make the rockin' world go round
  25. Did anyone ever get to the bottom of this? I want something for the digger for clearing the tops of fields after felling Ash with dieback etc.... saw the avant rakes and seen them in digger style also wondered whats what....? Land rake buckets looked good but I think RIP grass ๐Ÿ˜‚
