Mogmans creations 🤔

[Monkeybusiness]

I remember speaking to a guy at the APF about one, i heard the price which i cant remember now.

There was a second hand one for sale a year or so ago and I think it was still over £200k!

 

[Mogman]

used to see a Chieftain or two quite regularly in Brightwells a few years ago
looks a half tidy machine TBH ... assume that's a 4 tonner @Mogman ? servos?

Yes on servos
4.2 tonnes over the weigh bridge like most things I buy on weight

 

[Mogman]

What’s wrong with it?
Does it run?

Not sure yet on both counts
May have a poke at it in the morning before my first job
I just craned it on and left

that is some neat piece of kit .... wouldn't want the bill for all the mod.s though

The extender dig is good, but the rumour is they skate sideways down slopes as can't get enough grip on the sort of slopes that justify using one.

Those sort of side slopes are the territory of dozers and their jockeys

Paul doesn’t ‘get cheap stuff’ or ‘get given anything’ - he charges incredibly reasonable rates (simply covering his overheads) to clean up impending environmental pollution, and also does his best to recycle wherever possible.
Essentially what he is doing is charitable work, but purely off his own bat!
I see a knighthood in his future tbh…
