Hi Chris (Kigg) great pic of the converted tracked dumper with from what i can see as a Bryce post chapper on it i myself worked as fencing contracter for a couple of yrs before coming home to the farm.We worked a Volvo EC55 with a wrag post chapper on it and what a versatile machine this was on both steep and awkward ground.I'm hoping to purchase a post chapper myself to fit to my LGP JZ70 to make life so much easier on the farm i will keep you all posted on how i get on with my adventures.
Cheers...J (Bog Trotter)

Re: New Members - please introduce yourself
Hi all, greetings from Wyong NSW
My name is Tim. Originally I wanted a steam portable engine or a steam roller for a restoration project, this of course had to go through the usual scrutiny of 'er indoors' and it was decided that although pretty, once restored steam engines don't actually do an awful lot. After a very diplomatic exchange she agreed that I really ought to purchase a JCB 3DMKll regardless of the dismantled engine . The only drawback she tells me is that JCB's don't cut grass.
So I'm looking forward to keeping you up to scratch on the restoration, go easy on me, I have to run a business as part of my real world too!
