    When I retire .. I'd like to move to my but 'n ben and own one of these guys .. I could buy it tomorrow .. but its a machine for an artisan operator I think .. and I don't have the time for it just yet .. but if you have a good name amongst some clients .. I believe this tool will make you indispensable with those clients so long as you have learned to operate it properly

    Please don't PM me for plant advice.. thanks .. Post in the forum where I will gladly help, as will many of our contributors.. as the info and responses will help everyone else, which is why we exist

    Now now no one likes a show off!

    That machine looks great! How much are they? How good off road would it be? I have often thought why is the not more of these being used to save on the cost of a low loader?

            Interesting .. I hadnt bothered doing any homework as it was so far off ... I think you need to buy it with a crimping machine with all those hoses

                  A rep told me once .. its the only machine that could put a pallet of bricks down a hole .. but could still dig the hole, and all the other earth works combined ... I am tempted I must say

                    Mate there seems to be a lot of rubber on that boom! Looks like a handy bit of kit though.

                      Nah! Not the only one Muz - 'Drema'd do a fair job of putting a pallet down a hole too





                      Just depends how deep yer wan' 'em

                      They are a hell of a tool though and certainly something that'd be very tempting as a good all rounder

                        Fair bet she would .. good job I don't listen to reps 'all' the time .. even if they do fly you out to plant shows around Europe and ply you with drink .. been a few years since that's happened though .. they must have got the message

                              Used to spend a lot of bucks on steel every month, but tried to avoid 5 figure months, if I could, unless the returns were gonna be good
