casto2

Strimmed a used nappy before which my mate found hilarious, until later in the contract work, flailed a dead dog in long grass that someone had launched over a fence. Not had much from the tree side realy except for the odd dead rotten pigeon that someone decides to put into the chipper

Depends how much playing you do to them. They won't as standard. Mines only 40k at the moment till I open up 8th gear. One with a mounted crane would be a good rig. Was it a reverse seat model?

It does seem to have gone up a notch recently. I'm starting with trigger finger as a dull pain. But how much do you blame just on tools? I've ridden peds/ motor bikes for about 7 yrs before I got my car licence, then i bought a landy. Both my old landy and newer one both vibrate through the steering wheel. Then there's the tractors... quads... playing sport (in my case hockey) all adds up

Yeah not a great age to get it and I'm a long way from retirement (I'm 32!) Yeah strimmers aren't great but I also put it down to hedge cutting as well. At college you get told of the potential of white finger but not the difference between the cheap end of the market and the higher end which seems to have between comfort and better anti vibration. I don't like gloves to be honest but now I have to to keep my fingers warm. With out gloves I cant last more than 15 - 20 mins on a strimmers or hedge cutter. The saws aren't to bad as your not always holding them unless your logging up and they have better anti vibe as standard.

Cheers gray git, she's in good condition for her age. I've only had her a few weeks but I'll stick some more pics up as I get them . It's the most comfy tractor I've ever driven as well!

White finger has got me at the age of 31 thanks to strimmers and chainsaws.

Had to move some gear out of the field I was using and this was the only way I could move it all in one go.

My newest addition to the fleet.
