  1. Between 4-41/2 ton so means you would be on or around 3 ton gross weight carrying.

  4. Here you go and 7.5 ton all in,Pay for its self in 12 months.Proper toy to play with. Are you a man or a mouse or shall i get the (cheese)
  5. Go all the way then and fit a hiab but think about the overall wait you can carry.
  6. If you do go down the 7.5 ton route them think about a roll on roll off rear bed as can leave a bin/bed on the job and still use multiple bins/beds. So handy for loading and unloading,I had one and superb for loading my 2.5 ton excavator.Cost about a grand more but what money worth spend as had 4 rear beds with it for that money.
  7. I have done both and if you are going to jump up then go 10 ton and not 7.5 as you will see a huge difference in payloads as you mention and the cost of rinning 7.5 to 10 ton in about the same and all the checks involved, I got away with having to do the HGV as my car licence allowed me to drive one,I was doing a self build at the time so if i ever got stopped the truck was used for private use and was insured on my traders policy so as i was already paying that cost nothing to add it on.
  8. I have a 24 inch wide planer and its a monster to handle timber of big size though it.
  9. Project i doing at the moment (fire place)
  10. Just for the record i am one of the very few who can sharpen a handsaw (disston) still got him after 30 years

  18. Something like this would do you John Deere ride on mower STX38 hydrostatic 38'' deck garden tractor Pre-owned £1,350.00
  19. I spend a year fitting 4 new custom builds out for a customer who had a b+b by the river shannon in ireland when i was living up in cheshire 20 years ago in a small established boat yard,One of the most enjoyable work i have ever been involved in as a carpenter/joiner is 30+ years and i saw first hand why people fall for the life style that comes with it.
  20. I have the same one and the cut is pretty clean but its still a saw cut finish though as to be expected.
  21. Only way is the bay or auction for that money and with the bay you can look at the sellers reviews
  22. I think forestboy is losing the plot quietly
  23. That is why the saying a dog is a mans best friend is so true
  24. Just take things in hand (wank) and beat the old boy to a pulp.
  25. Having a right old rant this weekend lol ?
