  1. Will pay you to find a good supplier local to you and stick with them and you should be able to get some deals after a couple of years of business. This is what I have done and it works very well, if I get a problem with a product and it needs replacing it just happens after a phone call. Were are you based would help.
  2. Would love to know what the price tag is.
  3. More storm damage, Scott's Pine decided to land in neighbour's field were it is very wet and that was the only way to get into bottom of garden with digger to dig hole out to sit root back. Got in with digger but had to winch it out.
  4. Back on storm damage, Poplar laid down through 4 other trees and laid on top of bank. Wood chip left on site for mulch for landscaping project and wood left on site to be logged and split later.
  5. Never looked at start date 😀
  6. Run a Protech P18 with 180kg weight on a little Tobroco giant good machine in small places done guite a lot of garden fencing with it and horse paddocks. Makes it a one man job machine on trailer and matirals on truck.
  7. The rope can be a problem but manual says replace ever year but how do's that. Last time I replaced rope has got to be 3 years now.
  8. It's sad to see what happened to your truck, but they must of known your movement and been following you.
  9. Beginning to think why I both to ask questions as never get a straight answer. Looks like there is no straight answer to this question talking on here. Been looking at more classification on road tax and have hopefully come up with the answer.
  10. I was hoping to get some answers on here how others work it, as a lot of people on here use tractors, not to be stumped by more long winded answers. Which I have read on other threads and gov Web sites.
  11. Would be interesting to find out if anyone on here knows. What I can't understand is when it's taxed agri you can drive it at 16 but if taxed anything else you may need different licence or even mot.
  12. There is plenty of tractors used in none agricultural which are under 3500kg.
  13. Rival company, is that tree marker paint.
  14. Even if tractor is just less then 3500kg,, I was reading no mot if less then 40kmph top speed.
  15. So I have ran tractor under agri/Forestry but big change to work now more domestic at big properties, so need help to what I tax class I put it in. Tractor is 1984 top speed of 30kmph and only pulling 8ton trailer or chipper mounted on it.
  16. When has cutting fire wood been agriculture yes it could be forestry only if cut in wood land. But not if in yard.
  17. And that MF will still be running when that Deutz needs a electric switch or box to make it go.
  18. There's a lot of other bigger chippers with the same setup with big gaps. Did you find crack when doing blade change, would clean it of and see if there's any other cracks on the outer edge. Would only replace with new, as fitting second hand flywheel is a no brainer as not know what abuse it has had.
  19. You maybe lucky, did a conifer about the same size a couple of years ago at a property that backs on to uncles farm. Tree owner wanted root out left truck about 8 foot high put land rover winch on it and pulled it over landed up with a hole 4ft deep 8ft wide, but there was about 3ft of top soil and was very light land.
  20. Here is the easiest way to make it one handed and easy changed back if lent to someone.
  21. 6inch bucket with thump and good driver.
  22. Another workshop project extra sides for ifor tipper made from alley sides off scrap truck body.
  23. 2 large conifers to be taken down, only got 1 done do to hydraulic hose going on digger, and guess what not the easiest to get to. Gave new chipper a good test.
  24. You do need to find a big coach screw, think the one I used came off a electric pole. Can take a couple of attempts to get a good hold.
