    You’ll be ok around yard but slow. On site with gradients and turning I wouldn’t bother, especially as you want ‘low impact’!

    Low impact isn't top priority, getting the wood out of the stand without huge investment is, already have the digger so was just really after finding out who's using what with their diggers 

  2. OK thanks all. I really wish I'd stuck with ifor, I own another 3 of them. 

     

    Il try the level test Tuesday when in the yard and see how it goes. It has a full width ramp which is extremely heavy which I think isn't helping but I want the full width ramp not 2 single bloody things. 

     

    Il try the tow ball height and see how I get on. It's in the top holes on truck towbar and if I get adjustable hitch it will obscure the number plate 😭

  3. Evening all 

    Anyone using the Brian James 12x6 Plant Trailer or any Brian James plant trailer 

     

    Not long bought brand new, thought I was upgrading from my 2915 ifor gh1054, unfortunately not the case. Lovely looking trailer but tows awfully, I have a izuzu d max and when the trailer is empty it bounces the rear of the truck round terribly. 

     

    What's your thoughts lads and ladies. 

  4. At the moment I plan to buy as much timber in as possible, ring it into ibcs (oversize), 

    Process the good stuff into ibcs, and leave as long as possible, 

    Im in a rented yard so kiln not a great idea (planning / costs involved) 

    If its not dry enough it won't leave the yard, but I deliver half my logs using 10foot ifor tipper which is 2m3 ish so il just deliver those size loads if I have to. 

    Its not us the sellers that need education it's the end user / customers.
