  8. Having lovely time with the thumb I went for appreciate the advise. I have lots to learn but so far so good.
  9. What size machine do you have that on? I worry that on a 1.7t machine I'll use half its lift capacity with a fixed rotating grab
  10. so it seems that a decent hydraulic thumb from jb equipment or digbits is about the same as a decent tined grab from the same. am i correct thinking a grab will be slightly better at grabbing? charging into brash with etc....i imagine a thumb wont be as useful for gripping brash? i got the digger to do a load of jobs on the farm - i dont do any landscaping so imagine if it comes on a job itll be doing arb only thanks appreciate everyone input
  11. This is the cheapo 260 one I found Mini Digger Log Grab WWW.WSPOWERONLINE.COM Mini Digger Log Grab made from high quality steel. 25mm Pins85mm Between Pin Centres 90mm... I was imagining I could use the kellfri grab and rotoator on a non swivel bracket but sounds like that's a no go. So either dangling rotator or normal grab or thumb? I feel like a fixed grab would be better for brash but terrible for timber stacking etc.
  12. Any advice please- Want some sort grab for my kx41-2 1.7t. Option 1. Simple straight cheap grab, fixed, can't rotate - £260 Option 2. Cheap kellfri grab, rotates, hangs on a swing link bracket so all floppy. £1200 Option 3 the above but fixed I.e no swing link- requires some extra hydraulic plumbing (maybe rob the boom slew?) . Increases reach and brash grabbing ability? 1200 plus hydraulic messing on. I'm not experienced enough to know the major advantages/disadvantages. Would appreciate advice etc.
  13. Chromium? Which I think is a chrome based thing on Ubuntu. Will try some others when I can
