  3. My old boss has asked me if I would mill some oak butts we felled about 6-8 years ago is there going to be any problems anyone now of that I may come up against, they are metal free.
  4. Earth strap are a big problem on landys, Problem with mine a month ago Radio cut out then in, Head lights off then on with out touching any thing great when doing 50MPH at night, turned out to be earth from battery to chassis to gear box had come detached from chassis.
  5. Good old MF 35 with a pulverizer on the back got any fruit growers near you they may hire you one.

  7. Any pictures of site ?. There's all ways a way to get a tractor in some were as long as you have got the balls to drive it, use to clear the side of a hill plantation I had to wedge my feet against gear box to just stay in the seat. Lower in with winch may be one way.
  8. Good MF 390 are not easy to find. Thinking of looking at a Case 985T at a dealers near me but also been thinking of a Ford 7840.
  9. Looking for a second tractor to tow a forwarding trailer got to be about the 100hp mark any recomened make and model. O budget is £10,000.
  10. May be if all of us on here that have got IFOR trailers bombared them with a idea of what we want they may build it.
  11. They will take 4" but being gravity fed once it has hold of it just go's so they do grunt, just cut more cord wood out is the answer.
  12. Great little chipper. First chipper I bought still got it, easy to push around, can be towed by ride on lawn mower. If blades are kept sharp will chip small branches quicker than a 150 .

  20. Had a tree to raise over a road year's ago van and car parked in cones area found van owner how moved, knocked on doors to find car owner then found out some lads looked at it a week ago and could not start it so left. So hooked a chain on it and gave it a tow away from tree but when I backed up chain stayed tight, the lads had forgot to put hand brake back on so had to kick front wheels round to hit kerb and chock rears to stop it rolling away. And have had to walk up to cars people have refused to move with a chain and it surprising how quick they move them.
