That is around 67 pence a kg , that is hardly worth the effort !
I will phone the place I normally go in the morn to see what it is like here in Lincs , but when I last went about a month ago house hold was around 120 pence a kg .
Has anyone weighed in , within the last week or so ?
I know the price has taken a severe battering as of late , but was wondering what it was like around the country ?
It always surprises me how the price can differ so widely between yards !
Your reply mostly sums it up for me , when I personally do the job / breakdown.
But for general install work , it is going around the finished job and not being able to find any part of it that could have been improved on , if it was to be done again , either by my design or the one's...
At our last farm , the old pig paddock next to the house used to be full of them each year .
One of the old boys out of the village used to fancy his self as a bit of a dealer , and come and get loads . I reckon he mostly kept them for his self , the trouble was the paddock was the size of a...
Duane , I have pulled some right proper strange looking birds at the local village disco and young farmer do' s . But that is a step too far , even for me !
We have been wrap in up a little 100kw field mount Pv job for one of our local clients in his free range chicken pens last week and whilst I was in the inverter shed they let them out for the day . This what I was greeted with as I rounded the corner of one of the solar tables !
The front...
Hi Goldy , could you post more detailed photo's ?
At the moment I would guess that they are part of a remote start setup , but a guess is all it is without more detailed photo's .
And Darkwood is not scaremongering with his advise about it getting costly , it looks like you have a Brooke...
I do not want to tempt fate , but we are yet to misplace one by that far .
I have to admit that when ever I set one off it is always a relief to see it come out at the other end , the largest one we run is worth about £12.5 k on its own !
Sounds like I have found a fellow moler !
They are one the most useful and profitable pieces of kit that we run , but the bloody things can drive you mad .
As Dave said in post 7 , just get it moled .
If you get a good man on the job he should just about do that in one run and all you would see is the aftermath of the two 50cm x1m service pits !
If you do ever get around to buying a trencher , I would suggest that you go for a tracked version .
The one we use is a slightly larger Bobcat version of the RTX100 , and to be honest it is just not up to the job if you need any decent depth and as for keeping it in a straight line , you have...
Re: hydralic crimper
For the small stuff we tend to use SWA manual crimp sets , having said that , they are far from top of the range .
We only buy through the wholesalers for things like these , for a audit trail if ever needed
Edit; For the big stuff we use cembre
Re: hydralic crimper
Each to their own , but some things cost what they cost when it comes to piece of mind .
300 mm lugs have the potential of taking some serious juice
Re: hydralic crimper
The oil in one of our crimper sets costs more than them alone !
I would not be able to get off to the land of nod each night , if they went out on one of our jobs .
