    springs are fine honest , theres 6 leaf springs ethier side, thou i had it on its arse full of block paving once, opps. It didnt take long to cut and split , maybe i should flll a bulk bag first to get an idea of exactly how much it can hold , maybe i am going to rip myself off ? it could be holding 2 bulk bags for all i know. To be honest ive had a few time wasters . but it will sell . got about 10 trailer loads so ar as i keep loads for myself. plus a canny few large beech takedowns on a woodland im managing. most treesurgeons i know of just give it away with there chip , now thats ripping yourself off. i will measure trailer correctly and work out the metres cubed spot on for better idea

    any chippers a bonus - my tw125 broke down and is off getting fixed cutting brash in the back of truck is just no good , its like stepping back in time 1 year never mind the whips in the eye from pissy twigs when loading in the truck rear. (awaits chipper return before i do any more work)

    i run a double cab tranny with steel tipping chip box --- 2.7 on the bridge with tools ... im always aware of weight hence 5 trips inc trailer to shift large ash this weekend.... and if im honest maybe i was even overweight each time and it wasnt full... thou upgraded springs help the look of a stable load i once seen a builders tipper with the tow bar on the deck and the springs looking very very unhappy .....

    reet , this isnt for me but me dad , im sorting him with all my 3' / 4' branches for his log burner , part of the deal is i cant be arsed to cut them up for him. so , he needs a chainsaw , i thought an electric as it isnt going to cut heavy / thick stuff . Plus if he gets a petrol one he might get on my mams tits. Itl probly get used once or twice a month for a hour.

    mind u this could be a trick , gustharts workers turns up to climb with loads of shinney toys n tricks (and price list in his heed)
  21. Dr.Green
    Recreational climbing ?????? i wish - maybe when the light nights return if im lucky . Phil , theres some canny beechs between in the woodland thats runs paralell to the a1 just down from the shop. (leave the milkhope centre/turn left/t junction/turn left/bit along on the left) must belong to the blagdon estates.... just seen in passing.
