  3. Cheers it's just a prototype at the moment, but it's looking really good. we can do a full dumpy bag in about 20 mins. That's from tree to bag and only one lift. The savings are loads! We are just looking at the specs of the steel work and the adjustments to fit different trailers. If your just working in the yard a 6Pro https://www.truncator.co.uk/product/6pro-multi-log-chainsaw-sawhorse/ we did all this in a day and used 3/4 of can of fuel!
  4. We have built a prototype of a trailer system as well. [ame] [/ame]
  5. It's much safer and better to work at waist height. The more you load in as well will save the time
  6. My God If Dyson's hair dryer is £300 how flippin much would a blower or saw be!!!! :001_smile:
  7. Hey thanks for the mention! I saw the Log Croc in Ireland at the ploughing championships. I like the way the teeth are all independent. There were a lot of people looking at it. Depends what you're cutting to and how fast you want it cut.
  8. This is a good one too. I use it lots. it's an online photoshop!!! https://pixlr.com/
  9. Morning has anyone ever been to this show in Mimizan France? Thinking about going. It's a big show but also it's a great spot for surfing so going for work and then play!!!
  10. Hi Jon It is the North West Air Ambulance. It landed in Ford Park in Ulverston. Not sure why, the pilot was there but not the paramedics.
  11. This is Bob! He's not impressed by Helicopters!

  13. Here is Bob 15months old! and never ever out of the water!!
  14. We have had these signs for just over a year and a half. They have been great. When not using the van for work you just take them off. Not had anyone trying to nick them. Also at shows/jobs you can move them around for max exposure!
