    Out of those the only one I have used is the FSI. Compared to some of the other 20hp machines I have used without the rotating feature its an awesome machine. I have only used the push along version but I think the hydraulic option would definetly be worth looking at spending the extra cash on. Not sure how much weight it would add to the unit, but I believe it would still be liftable. 2 strong men can lift the push along version onto the back of a transit without too much bother.

    Hi Steve is that the FSI B20? 

  2. Right, I know very little about the stump grinding business but I am eager to get into it. 

     

    My boss has said that he is not interested in doing any form of stump grinding so I thought I would capitalise on it! 

     

    He only does domestic work so a lot of the time it will be narrow access (fitting through garden side gates). I am looking for something that is self-propelled but the deck does spin. I know there is a huge market so I thought I would ask the people in the know who have used these machines before. They are all much the same but their prices obviously vary so does the brand really determine the prices? 

    I am looking for some advice on what I should go for like a Bandit HB20, CARLTON SP2010, FSI B22, Predator 360 and 460 

     

    In your opinions what do you like best? What are the running costs like? 

     

    And if any of you guys are thinking of getting rid of one or know of a great dealer, I am based in Basingstoke, Hampshire. 

     

    Any advice would be appreciated. 

    Many Thanks, 

  3. Hello,

     

    I know this is a massive newbie question but as this is the place for people in the know, I thought why not? 

    I am currently using a farmers yard (a friend) to store my chip and logs (and lots of cords) we are starting to reach max capacity for all now. My farmer friend reckons there are at least 2 articulated lorries worth of chip and many many many tonnes of timber. 

    My question is do Biomass plants accept our chip or do we have to go through other means? If they do how do I get in contact with them?

    Also, who would be the right person to talk to about taking the large cordwood off of our hands? Happy for it to be professionally chipped or for firewood processing. 

     

    Basically looking for someone who wants to buy either: my woodchip, timber, logs (in large scale happy to sort the delivery) :)   

     

    If it helps I am based in Basingstoke in Hampshire.

     

    Many Thanks,
