I usually flail mow some roughing industrial land approx 40acres. I haven’t done it for a couple of years and now they are asking if I can do it and collect the grass to be disposed of on site. (Presume it is to promote wild flowers etc). I wouldn’t like to mow it with a normal mowing machine...

Kit you know the sizes and what fitting flowfit.co.uk are cheap enough to make custom hoses.

Trailer is only rated to carry 8ton

Buy a topdon, lot cheaper.

Got a dewalt one due to having other tools. I would stick with dewalt due to battery situation.

Did a selector on my old dx86 about 20yrs ago. Didnt have to split the tractor got in through the side. The selector at the time was really expensive. Ended up welding it, and it lasted for at least another 15yr till I got rid of it.

I had my stockade gun serviced last year for the first time and it has done 24000 staples, (they have a counter on which they read when serviced). Surprising how quickly they clock up. I have got a dewalt gun as well as a backup and it doesn’t feel as nice as the stockade. I think the stockade...

I have been looking at them for a whilemand would be interested to know others experiences.

Does the backend get hot?
