Good idea, but the problem will be trying to get the round into the splitter so close to the blade. Geometry will be all to cock.

Where did you get your Ifor strap box from? Looks tidy.

If I know I'm going somewhere where I might need to shunt a lot on tarmac, I sometimes pop the bonnet and pull the RFW solenoid wires on the Ranger. This prevents it from engaging the front diff when you select Low. One day I might make an in cab relay for it.

I have the same ifor plant trailer as you and take our e27 around with it behind a 2007 ranger with tuning chip and airbags or an Iveco daily tipper. got an ifor beaver tail too which also goes beautifully but the ramps and props are such a pain compared to the dedicated plant trailer.

I have automatics ones. Not connected to the battery so a lot harder for scum to locate and easier for you to hide. They also can be located via radio signals as well as gps once put into alarm mode.

Watching this thread. A lot must depend upon the flow rate of your particular loader.

4 vehicles and staff yet only one chipper? What's the story there? If a business makes consitently 90k profit before tax, then a manager at 30k per year with perfomance related bonuses leaves around 50k cream each year. You'd be lucky to get 25k for the 'goodwill'. If it's really that profitable then a manager is the only real option, incentivise them, and if it all falls apart two years later then you've still ended up with more than you would have selling the 'goodwill'

You’d need some serious psi to do that. It’s folk being careless with the nozzle end that bends fins.

Norway maple is such a crappy excuse for a tree. Hateful things.

Um… how about every single Barret, Persimmon and Taylor Wimpey customer ever? 🙄

I hear you, but it would take more than that to eliminate you. From Woodsure website: Enforcement A common question we have been getting relates to enforcement. This is covered under Part 6 of the new Regulations and identifies local authorities as the body responsible for enforcement of the Regulations. For the purposes of the regulation, “local authority” means— the Common Council for the City of London; London Borough Council; the Council of the Isles of Scilly; a county council; a district council for an area in which there is no county council. There are a number of measures available for the local authority to assist in enforcing the regulations, such as: enter a supplier’s premises at any reasonable time; inspect a supplier’s goods; make test purchases of a supplier’s goods; require a supplier to produce documents or to provide information; question a supplier or officers or employees of a supplier. Additionally, compliance checks can be undertaken. An enforcement officer may check: small bags of wood are sold with the Ready to Burn logo, certification number and supplier or manufacturer details displayed correctly certification details against the certification list correct information on drying is provided to customers for wood fuel volumes of 2 cubic metres or more sales records (including sales to third-party retailers) how you’re storing wood (so that you aren’t selling it to customers damaged or wet) delivery records to households within smoke control areas Fines You could be fined if: you sell unauthorised fuel you’ve stored fuel so it has a moisture content of more than 20% the fuel does not have the ‘Ready to Burn’ logo or is not labelled correctly You could get a: £300 fixed penalty fine issued by your local authority fine of more than £300 depending on the severity of the offence issued by the courts Councils are understaffed enough as it is. I can't see much enforcement if any happening anytime soon. I'll chance the £300 fine!

A really good tip too- if it’s only a small stream, just chuck a decent piece of twin wall pipe into the stream and then fill in around it with logs. Quick and easy and all you will need is the pipe!

Yeah, you end up wishing the horse would kick them off!

I had similar two days ago. Car coming the other way, she stops, I stop. All she had to do was back back three metres and we could both have passed. I'm only in the Corsa van, but I've just come round a blind bend. Anyway, she starts waving her hand at me like she's the queen, telling me to go back. The only back she gets is mine, up. One finger. She looks furious, and waves harder. This time she gets one finger on each hand. Then, she gets out to shout at me. Only problem is, she's not put the handbrake on! She scrambles to get back in.🤣 I was in tears of laughter. At this point, I though '**************** it' and reversed back, crossing over the blind corner into a farm track the other side of the road. She pulls across in front of me, still furious. Luckily, she's such a poor judge of space that she's left enough room for me to get down the side of her. I say luckily, because I would quite happily have shunted her car out of the way when she tried to block me in. On the same blind corner, last week, this happened. Woman driver (fact, not opinion 🙄) came round the corner too fast bit fast, and then pannicked. Instead of the brakes, she stomps on the accelerator. Kickdown did it's thing, the traction control performed superbly, and she almost managed to get past my old man coming the other way (who'd stopped dead as he saw her coming round the corner. I always wondered why all these dozy bints who can't drive needed a 4x4. She almost made it past!

Shame it wasn’t also the prick who left a lad from midhurst with a bleed on the brain after lying in wait for him outside the pub in midhurst two months ago. Think he’s near you also.

To be fair then, especially as mainly food prep, a rubberised paint isn’t a bad shout, easier for the walls and easy to touch up if needed.

If it was well floated by someone who knew what they are doing, then you should be fine with a high build two pack epoxy. Usually when someone says shed floor, I imagine some rough as a badgers arse tamped finish. You'll want all the gear for doing it right- spiked roller, spiked shoes, a good mixer- and you really can't hang about! Enlist help. Rubberised paints were OK in their day, but whilst they'd be first port of call for a dairy parlour there are much better options for an industrial floor.

For a pukka job, you’re going to want to grind the floor down (not easy on green concrete, and I’m assuming you didn’t power float it) and get a decent two part resin paint down. No point putting a decent coat of paint down on a tamped finish! Not a quick or easy job- which is why I’ve never got around to it! 🤣

Prepare to be undercut by every man and his dog 🤦‍♂️ Customers don’t give a damn about Woodsure. I know a bloke locally processing a fair few tons a year- own tractor, trailer and processor and does around ten loads a day during the season. He said to me, ‘**************** em, I’m not registering’. I do maybe twenty loads a year to locals in the village- I won’t be either.

Nothing about oversize timber is easy unfortunately, that's why processor grade commands a premium.

I'd say the cone splitter on the digger then through your own machine will be the cheapest and least work overall.

That’s still a complete bodge of a solution. Have they sold even one? If you want to load and unload pallets, you need to hire a mini loader or rough terrain forklift. Look at the faff needed to turn it all around! You’ll leave half your tracks behind trying to unload a lorry on a driveway.
