there are some wonderfully amazing machines out there today,the world is our oyster when it comes to manufacturing now a says.

at mach last year this was on a stand, its not a big ring, but it was a fair thick one.
a tiny drill and a little bicycle cut out in about 3 seconds on a very big lazer cutting machine.

Lot of buggering about in that video. Separate machines for felling, bunching, skidding, snedding/lengthing and loading? Some of the contractors over here would've had maybe 3 machines to do the whole lot.

there's some bits missing too,
where's the Finnings van trying to sort out the error code, or rushing to and fro with a platinum coated diamond encrusted wiper blade,
and where's the poor beggar who's put his name on the dotted line for all the toys? (away chewing his finger nails back to the bone somewhere I daresay).

In seriousness, i'm not at all sure about forwarding all the trash...surely thats best left where it grew for the next crop to eat.
and the level of mechanisation generally turns me off. reducing everything to tiny fractions of ££££, and you end up with this.
US/Canadian clearcut isn't a model to follow here.
