  2. In North Wales, if i had found some drawings, how much would it cost to engineer one? cheers
  3. many thanks for that andy, it has to be a four cylinder, six cylinders are different spec. Cheers bud
  4. Good point, il look into that! was hoping to get a James Jones blade!
  5. Is it still there? Under what is it? cheers bud
  6. Of any interest,has anyone or know of somebody with a Ford county blade for a Four cylinder county. Must have the brackets, rams and pipes! Many thanks! Mark
  7. To be honest if it can carry loads out i don't care, i could do a bit of TLC on it myself!n How much do you want for it?
  8. Looks a tidy, what make is it? Got a couple of small scale clearfalls to do, it would be essential. Are the control levers in or out the tractor? Where in scotland are you based?
  9. I'm looking for a 6 tonne forwarding trailer for my 4 cylinder county, would anyone know or have one for sale, let me know! the price range is around £3000. Many thanks, mark.
  10. I got mine today! I hide all the forest journals from the mrs! they'd be burned! I am not too sure if i'd need a harvester and forwarder with the tenders, I am going to have a look at them!
  11. Ideal bud! Trying to sort a bit of sub-work for a harvester and forwarder, the maths are not simple! especially for these tenders! many thanks for that!
  12. Its a different story here with rocks, hillsides and boggy places! To be honest, I'm a saving up money to buy a mediocre forwarder not too expensive and not a shed! I'm looking everywhere for timber patches either softwood or hardwood from 300 tonne to couple of thousand! Very hard to come by these days!
  13. I've got 2 worn tyres on the front, got to sort that out! again very expensive! got wheel chains for it, it can go anywhere with them! Its got 4 levers, left to right, blade, winch and forward and reverse, very simple! ten ton hercules winch, its been very well looked after, Whats the skidding work like around your area?
  14. hello! Just started up timber extraction with 2 skidders, looking for patches of timber(SOFTWOOD OR HARDWOOD) from 200 tonne up to couple of thousand tonne around N.Wales, Mid Wales or across the border, will pay a fair rate. Will sort out felling licences and other problems! many thanks! Mark
  15. Oh yes! there's a 380 up the road and thats got a detroit engine with a hell of a noise in it! The only problem i see is that the parts are going to be expensive! I also need to paint it properly, the cab is green and the rest is red! not good! Do you do much skidding chris?
  16. What did you think of the 360 chris? The one with the detroit engines sounds like an aeroplane!
  17. Nice! thats a good one! Have you had a few TJ 'S? I am hoping to use it for big hardwoods or big softwood clearfells! Get the old 6 cylinder cummins engine going!
  18. Yes i will do soon, i am terrible with these computers! at 22 you'd think i'd be an i.t technician! no chance! The T.j is up in scotland at the moment but its coming down in the next week or two, trying to find an easy and cheap way to get it down to wales! Its a hydrostatic model and runs through torque converter! good condition fair play! Any advice on how to maintain, run or use it? many thanks!
  19. hello fellow members! Im new to arbtalk! just getting used to this so its going to take time! Ive just started to invest in timber extraction methods. I have a ford county and a timberjack 360 skidder. I want to get work for them both so if anyone wants a skidder for hire with driver who is also fully qualified with chainsaw tickets! I am based in dolgellau N.Wales and willing to travel and with negotiable rates. Many thanks!
