do you have specialists come in to do the zinc form work Kev or is it available in preformed sections - how do you seal it if it's preformed ?

They often put a membrane under the slates nowadays... when we first moved down here you never saw it.

the clamp has a much greater surface area than the small point of contact that the U bolt bites with and indents into the cable ... clamp has much less of a grip...... they will slide ... 'swhy it has to be fitted correctly

wrong and and two clips short
correct but one clip short
H&S - if they're up on it could stop you using it and make you remove the area of rope concerned or in this case change the rope, as 'tain't long enough to trim, if the clips're on the wrong way round
it's a part of a 6 monthly too on any form of lifting gear .. correct fitment and any damage to rope tails

like I said ......Shhh, shhhhh Grah the nasty clamps are far far away from you and can't hurt you.....
"ignorance is no defence in the eyes of the law" ...... you buy a 'pucka' manufacturer's gear - you expect it all to be right -- in every detail.................. don't shoot the messenger ... just pointing out right from wrong

I like it when things come out easily!!
I also tried out my new 120cm grading bucket. Much better- I was actually running the engine slower and being more productive, as I was able to take a decent amount with each swing so I think subconciously not so worried about getting back round quick for the next bite. Wish I'd bought it ages ago.
Popped that wall out with the ripper (loving the hydraulic hitch, woudl never go back to manual) and stacked up enough for the lorry tomorrow morning. That's enough work in this heat.

Jeez that’s weak, I take it it handle the 1200 fine ? I should imagine it does my graders 1000 wide and deeper than a standard one and the 302 handles it fine
