Definitely worth that.

@V8Druid could fab those

Needs a little mains powered hopper and conveyer to feed with a higher stand so it can Shute into a dumpy or dumper. You’d get through a few ton in a day

I’ve got some punch plates already curved came out brake factory going to
Plasma cut some squares out drum weld them in

Devil is in the detail I imagine. Getting the holes between the 3 drums the right size and spacing, and the plate that makes the 2 shutes is what makes it work as it drops into barrows. Belle warrior a tad high though.

Nice when hunch pays off 2 mins to munch to hardcore and cut rebar with cutters

Micro and breaker clean up stub new one in

 

[Stroppymonkey]

Borrowed this one from my LL today to compact my 16 yard skip. It’s only done 4500 hours but they haven’t been kind ones! Unsure on age. It’s all in Japanese

 

[6feetdown]

Rather blocked.
Anyone lost a drain rod?

Multione making life oh so easy.

Round the back of a motorbike cafe- worse places to be on a sunny day! Free food and nice bikes to look at.

Nice! Surprised the Kubota holds a 1000kg pallet with out it dropping on the breakout ram- hell of a lot of leverage.

 

[William127]

Just the odds and ends to do and then get all the gear- including 2 toe Jacks, 2 towers, 2 van vaults, 4 steps/ladders and 4 work benches off the roof tomorrow
Another one done
