  1. At the moment it's the KTS for all round package that is standing out at the mo! What are ryetec like to deal with good back up... Warranty... Parts...
  2. Looking at cranes to mount on my Botex trailer. 3point linkage to maybe use on a chipper and want good lifting force. At the moment I'm favouring the ryetec 6.7m crane lifts 2.2 ton close in, fold down legs and joystick controls. Where as the Botex 360 crane 6m reach lifts 1.2 ton close in, hydraulic sleeve legs with a spool 6 lever block. Any one have any experience with these cranes and any others out there... Cheers James
  3. Cone splitter can be messy especially with knotty wood, tears it and can waste a lot of timber while a splitter Cuts it and can control with a wedge the size of billets you want. There's pros and cons for both.
  4. Anyone bought a big bore 54 mm from Baileys online... Are there any loop holes buying from USA... Does it all come in a kit form or do u have to buy extras such as gaskets etc... Cheers James

  7. The igland cranes don't have much lifting power 840 kg at 3 meters without grapple! Want something sturdy with some lifting power
  8. Very interesting topic this for me! Lorry cranes a lot cheaper than forestry cranes too. I'm in a debate. I collect a lot of big timber from farms who have wind blown trees and close to a dealer of cordwood. I have a botex 8t trailer with extension so can take 2 bays of 3 meters. How do you think the hiab crane work on the botex? Would it be too heavy... It weighs just over a ton. I've never used a crane trailer set up before... Is the visibility a factor with crane controls on the left hand side? All thoughts and opinions welcome! Cheers James
