our surfacing lads are scouring ebay to buy as many old haemmerlin as possible as the new ones are sh!t, spot welded not bolted together and teh skips fall off after a few weeks. theyve been drilling them and coach bolting them before they fail. we have a few old haemmerlins that are good and a big american style one from cost co.

Here is, as promised, pics of our two barrows

They are 20+yrs old, running roller bearing wheels and trailer tyres

Have been welded/strengthened countless times

A decent barrower can do a tonne of gear in six barrowfulls on level ground.

and the best ped roller you can buy, Mortimer CS71 tightedge, superb bit of kit, makes anything else (Bomag inc) feel like a right antique.

Nope, no breaker unit on the roller, got a couple of JCB Beaver packs, ideal.
