That u1300 has been for sale for ages! On eBay and Atkinson vos. I like the look of it but too expensive for me.
-
Yeah I was thinking the same Steve???
-
I bet that Jensen was over 30 grand new!!! Make him an offer and tart it up a bit and try it out for size, if its not for you it would sell on easy once painted up.
-
I've passed it loads too, it looks very tidy not sure if it runs tho. The county tractors look tidy too, if I had the spare cash I'd be bidding on them as an investment, they are going up in value all the time!

Who did you get the standing spruce from John?

I'm kicking 17 stone these days and it defo gets in the way on the tippy reductions.

Ha ha Joe newton cracks me up!

What about a crafter tipper? I've driven the panel Van crafter 3.5 ton and it's a great big van, basically a vw badged sprinter I think?

I bought a safetrac 1928 earlier this year for under 10 grand, its a bit rough around the edges but chips brilliantly and is the best machine for tracking I've ever used! That said if I had the money I would have bought a younger machine with less hours. Beware a lot of safetracs have had a hard life on the railways!

Yeah it sounds like your crank is knackered. It will have worn through lack of grease or running a worn bearing for too long. Seen a couple 261 s with this problem.

That photo makes the chipper look the same length as the mog
-
Would you not be able to fit your front mount Jensen now you have uprated the mog suspension ? Then fit a hiab to the rear on a din plate, I think Stevie Blair had a neat quick release set up on his old u1200. Imo having the hiab behind the cab will be very restrictive and you will prob have to lose a bit of your chip box.

Branch dragger still required.
-
Leave the poor boy with them! How would you like yours lopped off ???
-
Guy I sub for requires a branch dragger for rhoddie clearance work in Oban / lochgilphead areas. Must be hard working and reliable Salary of around £ 19000 per year . If interested contact davie on 07780795870.

Go on skyhuck, that would look cool next to the mog as extra chip space
-
Thanks . I just seen an old thread from johny Burch saying greenmech wanted over £450 for a starter, think I will give that a miss!
-
The starter motor fried on my safetrak 19 28 today, and I need one asap. Am I best getting one straight from greenmech? Or is there anywhere north of the border that I could get one from ? The chipper has the izusu engine if that makes any difference. Thanks.

Full loads of larch required.

How much is the bandit to hire Tom?

About 0.5 cube trees.

It's hard to get a start cutting for a skyline, it sounds easy just dropping trees but you need to know what your doing and usually your felling on very steep ground. As with most jobs you need to start at the bottom. Still a few skyline crews working throughout Scotland so there is work for cutters.
