  1. Its a loud of rubbish. I delivered a load of logs a month ago to a customer been cut for a year dry as a bone, and went back last week and half the load had been chucked under hedge to keep dry in the weather we have at the moment. Just jobs for people with no idea and paper work for us to try and get around.
  2. Watch it doesn't push you over 750kg OK if you are an oldy but not if whipper snapper.
  3. I've driven plenty of vehicles with gearbox worse then land rover.
  4. Depending what size, maybe worth looking at deer carcass trays.
  5. Not use either, but have used straight and twin boom would go for twin boom as up and over ability on reduction jobs. Used a 30m straight boom on a truck on a tree last year because machine I wanted was not available was a pain trying to get boom to drop in between limbs to get reach.
  6. He said new machine so should be nothing wrong if when he bought it was ran up on aspen when tuned up at shop, but maybe it wasn't.
  7. Built it up myself out of parts engine is Lombardi 20hp and then tandem pumps developing 44lpm at about 1500rpm with a dump valve which then gives you the power, had a lot of help from David lupton how supplied pumps and he makes hydraulic power pack for bale rappers. Will run all day on about 2 litres of red.
  8. Got a hydraulic power pack which kicks out the same as that, runs a 10t oxdale splitter very quick and run a Riko 25t quicker then tractor.
  9. Come on Swinny any pictures of new beast.
  10. If into comedy I wouldn't bother.
  11. Been and looked at a job this morning and looked at this shrub/tree. Its not a Magnolia grandiflora
  12. Not up on Mitsubishi, but my brother had similar problem with td5 landy turned out to be faulty air intake hose so maybe worth a check.
  13. Utility cable or home owner fitted. Line search before u dig is good, just need to sign up and it's free.
  14. Neighbour put ash's out of wood burner on compost heap once, took about 3 hours to get going but it was well a light before it was seen.
  15. Flowfit have 12.5% discount off online orders if you know what you need.
  16. I am thinking both water and salt but salt the biggest cause of killing it.

    Hedge

    After a bit of advice, customer of mine has a laurel hedge which has died back because of water being splashed at it from road. She wants to pull it out and plant new hedge, so what will put up with wetting. Nursery has said hornbeam but not to sure.
  18. Want hit you now but maybe in 6 months, That’s the problem selling stuff never know how is turning up, brother had someone come and look at land rover years ago and was definitely a picky then he got talk about access to were he lived, one road in and the same one out then I pope up and said, one way in and no way out if its dark.
  19. Nothing like having the right tool on the job.
  20. Been splitting logs this morning with view of footpath never seen so many people not many of them local. And a couple of blokes on mountain bikes I had a go at and then found out they were 7 miles from there home's. I am thinking if foot and mouth out break happened again god help us it doesn't there would be no way people would stay away from countryside.
  21. Are picture is of side window, wouldn't window of broken if a hard impact
  22. All I can see is damage to top of cab can't see how this has happened looking at how everything landed up, As for out of line looks like back window has moved on hinges, tractor cab need a direct hit to bend them which would mean mud guard bent and lights gone which in pictures all intact.
