thanks maybe I will inform myself better, I don't think the Sherpa is imported in my part, better rubberized or tracked, my land is in a rocky hill, stony, alluvial moraine, sandstone type of a gravel pit. I have to find the right compromise the right performance, it has to climb up the slopes and reach the terraces of the steps, otherwise I have to hire an excavator to track ramps and driveways, I have to spend a lot of money to restore the old tracks to the old paths. thanks anyway.

I saw this on eBay the other day. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skidstee...2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
It's a cool looking thing.
I could do with one of these and a concrete crusher bucket for the job I'm doing at the moment.
It would be a nice compact setup if you have limited storage and you could hop off and do something else when it's crushing.

As much use a crushing bucket would be on one of those you may as sit with a lump of concrete and a hammer in either hand.

I did consider the Giant- looks a nice machine. However it's a lot more money than a Sherpa, and although still narrow it's getting to be a much heavier lump to move around. Better flow rate than a 13hp petrol but still not enough for anything useful.
These mini skid steers are best appreciated for what they are- a labour saver that excels at repetitive cycles. I did abuse mine today lifting a 2mx1mx15mm plate of steel off the truck- had to get the customer to stand on the back with me!
Great for moving blocks too. I shifted two bulk bags of sand in 8 trips (cabinets on the return trips!
) and then filled the pathway up with blocks.

Truth be told I'm pretty much out of wall space, so not sure exactly where I'm gonna put them!!!

thanks for the report, I have to understand if a mini wheel or tracked loader or a mini wheelbarrow with loader is better. What do you think about Sherpa, I haven't found any in Italy.

Everytime I see that setup I think of a 60s bond movie!
Have you got a steel chopsaw? Or use bandsaw now?
Been looking at the cold cut ones. New Fein one out I fancy .
