  1. I did give this option much consideration, but in the end bought a dedicated wood boggy. If you want it to be a "dual purpose" trailer, which i did, the crane is at time going to be in the way, eg when your carting boxes, pallets or bales. I also looked at a Z crane, that would fold up behind the head board, but they seemed very expensive. If your looking to use it as a dedicated trailer for carting timber round the yard and road work, it will be fine. In the woods might not be so good.
  2. The sales have fairly picked up again. The local news paper had a write up in it saying it might snow this weekend
  3. Dont get a Fastrac, VOSA love trying to put them off the road
  4. I know a man with the exact machine
  5. Inspections, depending on mileage are every 6 to 12 weeks. I don't think you have to be a qualified mechanic but you will need reasonable amount of knowledge. If you inspect the lorry and something goes wrong, you will be held accountable. It only takes a couple of hours to inspect the lorry, so shouldn't be overly expensive. Pretty sure you need a transport manager cpc, but yeah, you can ne your own manager. Again, alot of responsibility, if something happens your help accountable.
  6. Cheers fella
  7. Lorry needs 6 weekly checks, operators licence, cpc, transport manager, yada yada, yawn yawn. That's a whole lot of time and expense, and hassle. Not trying to put you off, just being real. Have you considered a hook lift type lorry? Iam thinking it might be cheaper to have a body specially for your needs. Also give you more flexibility, use it as a tipper between times, cart wood chip, gravel for the roads etc
  8. why not use a tractor and boggy, if its just local?
  9. How did you get a new feed into the house?

  17. Dean is going to sell me a nice new sparkling 2680. Re the chipper drum, is this easily removed to convert the machine to a shredder for pallets etc, or will it be a dedicated chipper?
