Alright John,

I had a little go on the 385 yeh, difficult to drive with that long stick. Just the slightest move on the lever and its going places! There was a few different sensitivity settings, the least sensitive of which my workmate said was too slow so just had to master it how it was.

I haven't been on a telescopic but I'd imagine they're probably more controllable at this sort of height (40m+), what would u say? I know you've been drivin coleman's 850 but have you done any recently?

Just learning the ropes myself so 345 @26-28m metres is more than enough.

yeah the telescopic ones are much better coz you have a shorter intermediate so yeah think it would be hard to master the 385 .bet you could over reach your self easy :dizzy: but the cat 350 coleman has you can drive it like it has the standered arm on coz it is well balanced :D but havent done much tho duo to the work :( so been having to find work myself ;) but high reach work is intresting tho :D

Well the demo work at this site is nearly over now just a pity I don't know the exact time they were moving the machines, wouldn't mind getting some pics of em being loaded up.
Last couple of pics from this site from me thats quite a monster hammer on the end of the 650 :dizzy: bet the dentist could have some fun with that. :lol:
