  1. During WW2 there were Canadian loggers based in Breamar, they were felling in an area called Mar Estate, now called Mar Lodge Estate, and they left an area of uncut tees in the shape of a Maple Leaf, (still visible on Google maps). This was also the site of a early scottish ski resort, 1962, which failed due to bad luck with scottish winters.
  2. This mob are who you need, might be a bit expensive though?, I had a mate from years ago went over to work with them for a while. http://tritontimber.com/
  3. Aye works for me, also have a look at Saipem 7000 and the Hereema Thialf which has the world record for heaviest lift ever.
  4. Only my own little bit of forest which I tend to.
  5. If you like stuff like this Google Allseas Pieter Shelte.
  6. The Deep Blue is specifically a rigid or flexible pipe lay vessel it doesn't lay cable as such although it will occasionally lay in field umbilicals, in S lay mode (off the reel) it can lay 4" - 16". In J lay mode from the tower it can do up to 36" in 3000 meter water depth.
  7. I used to work on the Deep Blue, one of the vessels pictured, holds various records for subsea pipe installation.
  8. Hi Stephen, do you have a contract with the outdoor centre, I've seen your Mog and digger there a few times. Cheers, Fairmer.
  9. I purchased the Riko one, has County written on the side? I think it's made of cheese! it's used on a U25-3a if it makes any difference. I have had the gas axe and sledge on it on numerous occasions.
  10. Anything from FIVE TEN for super tacky soled MTB shoes.
  11. 4SN hose is a bit heavy for running a grab, SAE 100R2-AT in 1/2" is good for 3500 psi.
  12. An under water/subsea digger/excavator that I have been involved with in the past. Google search for Scanmudring if anyone is interested.
  13. Hi, wondering if any one knows the size of hose/fitting on the crowd ram of my U25 and also the aux breaker lines, 3/8" or 1/2". I would obviously go and look but I am working away from home at the moment and would like to order up some hoses and fittings for when I get home so I can plumb up a grab/rotator. Cheers, Fairmer.
  14. What about Kubota U20-3a for the 2 ton class, a few used ones pop up for sale regularly, I just purchased a U25-3a, great little machine, just deciding which attachments to get for it.
