We got our crusher working on Friday. We produced about 10 tons of fill in the space of a couple of hours going at a leisurley working pace. Very nice grade as well. Will post some pics on Monday

The BC will have to wait for another day. Had an absolute stinker of a day at the new yard.

really nice to see that stuff being crushed up, and money in your pocket. It looks like a good product. how long does it take to produce a tonne bag and what would you sell it for steve?

i was having a chat with sid bradshaw today and he has a similar crusher
he reckons it can do 10 tonne per hour and he charges £10 +vat if you pick it up or more delivered
that stuff looks great steve
you could almost sell it as a landscape finish product :;):
it looks to be a bit short on fines for specified type 1 but would be a vast improvement on most tat that gets buried under patios
nice one
