Is there a particular trench rammer better than others? None local to buy so will need to order in but which brand etc… Bobcat? @Gunners

I like the 4 stroke wackers. Use a Honda engine. I think the same engine is used by other manufacturers too but defo a fourstroke over a 2. So much easier to start. Doesn't run as fast so don't know if you need more passes but a lot nicer to use regardless.

Bomag 4 stroke.... The bollocks.

I've just tried a Hydraulic Plate on the mini digger, But it's getting moved on. Shakes the digger too much and doesn't ram it in anywhere near as well.

I've a 2000's Belle and a Korean Belle Copy in the workshop atm to get going and then they will be for sale.

Seen a Bomag bt60 for sale, Will have a look into that if you think good, Bomag is very well known in the compaction field.
