  5. Anyone actually using a pulley as force multiplier and if so what pulley? FC booklet says sheave should be minimum X18 diameter size of cable. Most pulleys are alot smaller diameter So for this winch you would need a pulley to be over 200mm size take a 10-12mm rope and rated 3t or above. Does such a pully block exist?
  6. Seems the 460 is the one to go for if money allows. Also vibrations is actually less on the stats....
  7. School playing fields are often covered in rubbish especailly if local newsgent /corner shop nearby bins don't seem to help that much as people to lazy to walk 20m to a bin. Do a litter pick along the road outside the house which is a country lane miles from the nearest fast food place. Get KFC, chip shop stuff, red bull and other energy drinks, plastic wrappers, larger cans, loads of mineral water bottles, childrens pastic toys, black bin bags dumped full of rubbish, and ocassional other random items fly tipped like sofas toasters vaccum cleaners flat pack ikea etc.... Actually mended one of the dyson vaccums that I found hanging up in a tree, along another lane nearby. Even had live chickens fly tipped several times...
  8. Info on the website: So 460 is maybe best as same weight more power, but will probably get though a tank faster. I use a 360 alot and they are ok on bramble and smaller blackthorn and one tank lasts ages... Would be nice to try the 460 though see what the he extra kW does.

  12. Maybe fancy stoves need more maintinace and are more fussy about buring wet wood as it would clog them up.... UK people most burn wet wood and do not want to do any maintenace or learn how to use a fancy stove ? My theory anyway.
