Fitted my new thumb the other day and it has absolutely revolutionised my digger driving
Edit: not sure the bright green goes that well with the purple digger

Did you just want a fixed and not a hydraulic model

Fixed is fine for what I do with it. Knuckle boom too so I don't have much space for more services, there's pipes all over the show as it is!

I said goodbye to this digger last week, off to pastures new. I think I’ve had it 16 years and although I’ve spent a good few hours of my own time fixing and replacing bits, in terms of hard cash spent the annual cost of ownership was in the order of a couple of hundred pounds (plus fuel) It’s been SORN’d for years so not even been insured for the road.

What does it actually do that it couldn’t before apart from wearing the tracks out?

No idea. I’m assuming it maybe has more reach? But a conversion plate from digger hitch to Q fit/pin and cone etc would do about as well you’d think.

Plenty around here used to move them with 95hp years ago, they all use 180 ish now! Any tractor is going to feel 18T (and a little bit more aheeem) behind them but it’s nice to have a bit if weight up front

Yer but not trying to break any records but yer not bad she does scrabble a little at this left hand bend but its steep.

Our little digger ,not very posh but spends all winter on a 2.5m weed basket and is used far more often than we thought it would be when we brought it .
