  3. I think this was asked on forum before so maybe worth a search . i once used a screw from a domestic electric plug Same size and. Thread just not countersunk
  4. I bought a used Camon badged version of Rayco RG 13 about fourteen years ago .it has done every sort of stump for me . it cost around €1500 at the time and is probably still worth €1000. Well worth buying something built to last

    Husky 266se

    When I started cutting in the forests in 1987 the 266XP was the saw the main price work cutters used. Most lads would start off with a Husky 61 The forestry men (state forestry before it became Coillte Teoranta) used mostly 266SE or some had 162SE. i don’t know what the difference was between the SE and XP, I never seen an SE on display in any of the saw dealers of the time, just XP. would still be a good saw for ringing firewood
  6. Nice! Well done and good luck ? sorry about my ocd but winch lever looks a bit vulnerable.
  7. 6inch Timberwolf is just about strong enough for the stresses it’s designed for . (Not a put down, I own one) masking for trouble putting putting winch on.
  8. Ah but we would be just moving woodchip for farm animal bedding ?
  9. Yeah. I figured I wouldn’t need to alter solenoids etc just replace the 3 stage switch in the control box with a unit that can be radio controlled, if that makes sense. Thanks
  10. Hi Stephen There’s an electrical control box you can have either in cab or it can be mounted on the chipper.(chipper was factory built as crane fed with no stop bar, just big stop bottons either side). It’s when chipper is driven by other tractor that remote would be handy. Thanks
  11. Ouch! Thanks
  12. Thanks Eddie. I will try them.?
  13. Hi. we run a crane-fed Jensen pto chipper. Depending on site ,space,type of stuff to be chipped etc , we either run it on crane tractor (Valtra/botex) or on a second tractor. running on crane tractor is fine for nice long material but for small more fidgety stuff it’s easier to use second tractor and see the feed rollers as you feed with crane or mini digger. i am hoping to set up a remote control to reverse the feed rollers when I need to without getting out of crane tractor or having to have someone on the ground (which is not ideal from a safety point of view) Any of the systems I’ve found on-line e.g. winch remotes require you to hold button on for both forward and reverse . I need forward to ‘click’ on, and I need stop to hold stopped. It would be okay to have to hold button pressed for reverse. has anyone fitted simular system or can suggest something that might suit? Thanks
  14. Kramer maybe
  15. Sorry not mine. i forgot the make , sounds German. great little thing , lifts about a ton
  16. Beech cut a few years ago and forgotten about.Milled today .
  17. Once you start swearing, you’v lost the argument.
  18. I think eu46 is Uk 11. i think when most of us are finished with a pair of boots, the pair of boots are finished .

  20. Do you mean? if you can’t blow without....

  22. I hope JCB is not who I think it is!
  23. Sounds too cheap. Worth checking out though. might be genuine but need a lot of repairs?

  25. Same here. and stop cursing
