I know people like to see pretty lumps of iron, so heres one I just finished. A guy in Australia asked me to look out for a machine. He was very impatient and bought this from a guy in Kilmarnock, without looking into the logistics of moving it. It was located up a very long farm track with no loading facilities. I arranged for a courier to collect it but he couldnt get it on his tail lift, no wonder it weighs 1.3tonne. I then arranged for a farmer to load it, but then the couriers refused to accept it because it was over a tonne, Even though I payed for a double rate and had someone to load and unload. In the end I hired a luton and drove up to collect it. A luton can hold 1.5tonne. It was a long day and a scary return journey. Theres no where to strap anything down in a luton. The van had the stiffest clutch I've ever experienced and ive driven land rovers most of my life. I felt like I had a club foot by the time I got home at midnight.
Its taken 6 months to do this because my Mrs is broken and I've been putting a wet room in and other stuff. Plus the guy said take my time because hes not sure where he will be living, Oz, UK or Israel.
With a bit of luck I will be doing a few of my own machines in the new year and theirs some really cool stuff amongst it.
