i like that titlting grader, was looking at one for 3 ton on ebay, £1200+ vat but weve done without upto now so think we'll stick to a trusty shovel haha
like the ripper as well saves having the breaker even though i spotted it in the background.
what was the little bit of rebar mesh for tony?
lovely work hagi, i like those little sets used them rd a hot tub on a job put pointed them old fashioned way haha was fun. did you design it or tony design it?

an you crush asphalt or does it get stuck in crusher
you can, but for what purpose would you then want to use it??
We have been crushing on site today, and have been chucking the tarmac in a skip.
A builder friend of mine stopped and asked why i wasn't crushing it up for sub base, and i told him it was a definite no-no. He said "rubbish!".
You can't tell some people

i just saw the crusher on the wagon, crush it into the skip save space haha, then demand reduce rate as they can sell i to someone who'll mix it with diesel and it'll be like new tarmac( for anyone reading it this is said very tongue in cheek, do not do it)
maybe your potters bar guy could mix it with cement and use it as footings haha,

giles, the machine on the truck is actually the shredder. Similar colour but it hates concrete, loves wood. funnily enough the crusher loves concrete but hates wood

did think it looked bigger, but thought it might be a newer one, does wood stick in the jaws? wrecking bar job? or just splinter it?

the mesh was for the day joint in the pour
instead of having rebard sticking out cut 2 sections of mesh 500 by 2000mm bend to an L shape and have 2 in the pour
today i just kangoed a little bit of concrete away to bend them down after the digger driver has dug the trench
It was a NHBC man that gave me that tip,pain in the rear trying to dig round rebar
we had 9 yesterday and probably 11 tomorrow
thats why i like the volumetrics==> no part loads
all the kit belongs to john the machine man,I kid you not he dug off the oversite and it is like a pool table,i just follow him with the staff and the laser receiver
I was in the skip yard yesterday and saw their big timber shredder in action there, pallets turned into chips in like 5 seconds,i would guess it weighs 15 tonne,plus the guy on the grabber crane loading it
skip yards are pure plant porn nowadays hehe
nice work dan

your an artist haggi
those curved cuts are something else
just that 1 35mm joint on the inner circle looks a bit off to my critical eye?
I only mention it because the rest is so prefect
i know how difficult it is cutting Indian stone to circles
cheers LLL
