    Instead of a power pack adding extra weight to the trailer would it be possible to run a dedicated feed from the towing vehicle to power an electric pump?

    My friend experienced a trailer snake on motorway while driving a discovery with another one on trailer. The rear rims were knackered as the back end had been getting pushed around so much, things finally came to a head when front corner of the trailer dug into the motorway and tipped the trailer and towing vehicle.. Whilst the disco on trailer broke free and flew over towing vehicle to land on its' roof. Thankfully he was ok but both land rovers were write offs, incidentally a lorry behind saw what was happening, moved across both lanes to hold the traffic back and give my friend the whole motorway to try and rectify situation.

    The stroke processor has marks on the boom. Count the strokes.. Two full strokes is 2.5m pallet, two full strokes plus additional stroke to 50cm mark is a 3m chipwood/pulp and so on. Absolute simplicity, won't break any production records but just plods away and the tonnage mounts up. Ideal for a small company or estate

    Buy my kesla stroke processor instead for only £10,000 ! http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/forestry-woodland-management/57942-purpose-built-forwarder-thread-osa-fmg-bruunett-entracon-norcar-logset-etc-50.html#post1468110

    Not really arbtrucks but I liked the twin wheel base one

    Decided to sell the little Lokomo and Kesla stroke processor as I've fully retired from forestry these days, I had toyed with idea of splitting processor and keeping forwarder.. As you never know when might need it! Realistically that'll never happen and also shame to split as the Kesla was professionally fitted by JCC Engon. Great little machine which just plods away, the processor is controlled by crane levers so nice and comfortable to work. Well maintained and everything good and tight, excellent air brakes, starts on the button, ideal for a small estate or contractor. Headboard, bolster pins, rear extension are all there to convert back to forwarder if need be. Tyres all good except one and wheel chains for front included in sale. Willing to let it go for £10k plus VAT as it's just sitting in yard these days. 07825 138865 if of interest

    Ok thanks all for feedback, I'll maybe suggest they have look at few other suppliers and if they stick with Chesney's then fair enough, from comments above they seem a decent enough stove.

    Friends of mine have a chesney stove in their living room, they're now thinking of getting another chesney for their kitchen. the one they already have wasn't cheap, I'm no expert on stoves but to my mind it seems thin and tinny (to use a technical term!). Anyone else ever came across this brand and are they actually any good? Thanks in advance for any comments

    All gone now

    Come in with your trailer and take a pallet of four (or more if you want) and just give the forklift driver £20. They're at Newbridge so easy to get to Had rum in them so just need a rinse out

    200 litre drums, 50 available Looking to clear these out, of interest to anyone? Previous contents alcoholic spirit. Collection from Edinburgh, we can load lorry if required.
  15. Wood wasp
    Ok thanks, walked along it few times. Good to see it getting tidied up

    Is that the Water of Leith Tom?

    It might have been genuine sale and sold quickly but there was a few forestry items appeared same time, all in Scotland... Viewing wasn't possible funnily enough.

    Diesel and chain oil over paper. If you are doing multiple fires when you arrive in morning poke off the grey ash from existing fire till down to the glowing embers, then use a shovel to carry them to site of new fire. Couple shovels and you'll have heart of your new fire ready to throw smaller branches onto.

    Received the Stihl handsaw, thankyou. Whisky posted out last week

    We'd sell this 30t 2m stroke splitter for sensible offers as since cut back on firewood it doesn't get much use. Hydraulically adjustable 4 way knife, pto driven with own pump and tank.
  22. Wood wasp
    Stop worrying about it and sell them as is, if someone wants to burn firewood then they should have storage to keep sufficient stock dry for their needs. ...You wouldn't order heating oil and ask the tanker to fill a 5 gallon drum every week.
  23. Wood wasp
    The complete one could be fixed Jon, from memory it just needs core plugs.. And some general tlc of course. Yes, it's a falstone
  24. Wood wasp
    Double drums are used mainly in commercial forestry so that can skid multiple quantities of logs at a time. One and a half Ford 3000s, both non runners, two Igland 4000s with extended drums and high lead towers, one Igland butt plate.... sensible offers .
  25. Wood wasp
    We've got couple Igland 4000's with extended drums so can be used for high leading, towers are here too. They're not 3pl but mounted on Ford 3000s and from memory there's only one butt plate. If of interest drop me a note and I'll try get some pictures.
