  1. When I was younger ( I know when I was) planted miles of hedging for a local estate 2 planting and 6 guarding with tubes and stacks they could not keep up guarding as time consuming part of job. On that planting I was planting 900 to 1300 aday which was planting on field banks and across middle of fields.
  2. How many to the metre? If 4 to metre 2 good planters no guards 1 day.
  3. Did an emergency job years ago police shut road. Highways man turned out in little van moved sign a pulled up and said how has closed road and I just pointed to the bobies standing up the road at that point one came forward and told him were to go.
  4. Looking things up a transit can tow 2100kg so no towing of 3500KG ifor.
  5. What a crazy law so you buy a Ifor Williams trailer 3500kg gross a pick it up with say ford mondeo estate and you would be braking the law.
  6. Nicely stacked discs but when you said splitting rings i thought they would be bigger
  7. The only way the could of prosecuted was put it over a weigh bridge to find out what it weighed.
  8. Ditto just hire a big breaker like a hydraulic power pack one split concrete on 4 sides and lift post out then leaver concrete in yo gap left by post and lift out bits.
  9. Using plate and screw hinges the best thing you can take with you is some dowels and glue to plug holes if you drill them wrong.
  10. Wood chip gets every where so will not make any different's
  11. Remember years ago working near a field of bales in November 1 started to smoke by the end of day 10 had burnt.
  12. Lucky you were up and spotted it. And had a hose to hand
  13. It maybe worth talking to H&M trailers down here in Essex they make some one off trailers I found out when talking to a agri rep a couple of years ago
  14. There's no quick way all you can do is make life easier, you are doing that by lifting with crane and cutting in to trailer. Customer of mine had big oak rings he could not lift got me to put them on his Hycrack splitter with crane bit tricky at first but once I got the hang of it was quick.
  15. Have you put a fence in front of old one.
  16. Thanks, but I am handy with a weld and was going down the second hand route and then fabricate frame to carry it.
  17. If you were full cut with 16'' bar oil flow is only just enough, so if fitter is partly block will run a little dry so check everything even if it looks like it's putting enough out.
  18. Is it because tip speed slow as its hydraulic.
  19. Got a tobroco giant loader been asked about some grass cutting and bramble clearing, Was thinking of getting a drag Atv flail mower and front mount it anyone tried this or used drag flail mowers
  20. Your lucky its pissing down just over the border in Essex
  21. When every village or other had its own policeman.
  22. We all pay for police services in council tax and see nothing for it.
  23. My old boss had a 2A forward control, chucked many logs on and off one . His had a Leyland terrier 4 cyl engine 3.8L in it.
