especially as the crane has a sticker with 450kg max on it
-
I wouldn't like to say, but I would think something around the size I have on the trailer, which is meant for a 3500kg base vehicle.
-
With engine driven pump and strengthening it's about 600kg
-
That is a Bonfiglioli 3500L
-
Some of the best lightweight to dead weight cranes are Bonfiglioli and Pesci, build quality of Bonfig isn't the best imo, our next trailer will most likely have a Pesci. A few makes have wide outriggers as standard that are an option on some of the more expensive cranes, I would imagine you would need wide outriggers for starters.
-
Weights are on their website, and all dimensions are in the brochure. Everything is possible, but the first thing that springs to mind is the folded width of the decent cranes will be sticking outside of your truck by a considerable amount.

beware of the swann systems that maplin sells, the cameras are very poor image quality. I spent quite a bit on a four camera system with 9 channels and you can't tell registration numbers even if they are fairly close or faces, you certainly wouldn't be using them for identification purposes.

Wasn't it supermarket petrol that was high in silicates and screwed up loads of cars several years back ? -
That is for sure. I think some places are worse than others, our local one is notorious for distorting even hard to distort stuff, a lot of local firms sent to medway now.
-
but surely you only want to galv the main bits, so weight is going to be way under 750kg once you strip it down. Galv is definately a better option than paint imo, prep time is far less and once it's done you won't be touching it again. Failing that Zinga is good but very pricey and it must go on a sand blasted surface for good adhesion, rustoleum is another. I used some of that rust bullet paint on the landy steel bits, and didn't think much of it.

I had a week off 3 years ago but I get finished quite early some days, which is nice.

Thats a handy tool for picking, nice video. we had a decent crop of all the berries this year, especially blueberries. -
Looks ok to me Ditch the gmail email address and get one for your domain name, on the bottom of the about page you have some odd html going on in the link, and some of your pics could do with being a bit higher resolution. I am too tired and been in the garden with some beers to go through all of it You have some weird stuff going on with your sticky menu, the original menu and the sticky menu shows when you are scrolling down and you scroll back up the page

The AT's always amaze me how well they grip, I have never had a problem getting off the fields towing the crane trailer loaded, I wouldn't bother with muds again. If anyone is interested in buying or swapping a set of 33 12.5 r15, 3 are bfg mt's and 2 are cooper discovers for a swap with 265/75/16 give me a shout. They are too loud for me.

Need a much closer picture than those to tell what it is.

We have a 46 litre fluval edge as a nano marine tank. In it we have a pair of percula clowns, a rainsford goby, a scooter blenny, 3 hermit crabs, a peppermint shrimp and various soft corals. I made my own LED lighting for it, just bought the correct colour spectrum LED's, wired them up onto a heatsink and put a fan on it, cost about £15.00 in all with the driver and it works well, some of those shop bought LED lights are insane prices. My dad has the most increadible reef tank, but he has spent years getting it like it.

having a few pints of homebrew and watching paint your wagon -
phenolic ply, strong stuff and hard wearing but quite pricey
-
I use UK fuels and bwoc cards and use whichever is cheaper that week Not a huge saving but generally a few pence a litre or more sometimes as I refuse to use supermarket fuels
-
Where was that ?

I take my hat off to her, she wrote something that was hugely liked and she still makes a fortune from it. On the subject of giving it away Edit: personally I thought the whole harry potter thing was crap

I was reading this story earlier. I think Steve has hit the nail on the head, it appears she has upset her neighbours because she has the money to do what she wants. Her tree houses are something else and good luck to her.

That mill has been on there lots of times, it's a fake.
