I have a Belle MaxiPave I could part with if you're interested? It does need a new wheel but besides that it always did the job.

Hired one today before I tried to chip Mickg on the price and I was very unimpressed with it ! Still saws buzzing all day........ And blockleys clays are like bananas and only good for crushing IMHO I can't show you this job I feel like jacking after the shower of shit levels I had to work to today ie: above damp!!!!!!

i have been using lines and correcting as i go but its a tw*t when you have to keep flipping them about as one side has no spacers and the sizes are 208x103mm i would rather point these like the yanks do,i also have about 6 lads who dont give a feck or care how it looks and a boss who wants M2 than compliments

wellcome to the real world clay paviours are proper paving ie dont date dont fade and you need to be at the top of your game to lay them right and cut them right have you checked the teeth they revole around should be sharp as mickg says they are good i had one could not fault them in the right hands you need proper paviours not cbp monkeys

:p

like I told you on the phone haggi my splitter has never had the teeth rotated and has 2 sides as new - still a bargain buy in my opinion

let me know if your still interested seeing you made me drag it out of my garage to photograph it and I found out how much they are to buy a new one its going on ebay shortly
