Just out of interest, what is the price of a new Graden pedestrian if I won the lottery? Just a ball park figure please. I'm guessing 7-10k.

5995 + vat, had a quote for all the machines a few weeks ago.

Going by Leons post at £425 plus vat = £510

How about £300 for the day sisis 600, 2mm and 3mm blades plus Blec uniseeder and me, donated to Vic's charity. Breakthrough breast cancer.

Reminds me of 1980 and Department S singing "Is Vic There?".

I know no boundaries.

Hi mark,

All good fella, i know what you mean pal.

My second bar worked better than the first attempt after drilling spacings like you advised, much better. I didn't get time to tidy up pipe work satisfactory to post pic's on here. But plan to work on it more to improve on it over the winter. Deffently worth the effort though.

Cheers

Andy.

F**k me Vic, I haven't been able to do that with a brush let alone a B & Q electric plastic scarifier since the second week of August. How dry are you? Ha ha ha. Came back from my daughters school parent evening tonight 2 stone overweight when a humungous thunderstorm landed on me. I had hailstones in my pockets.

Go for the charity job if you are still looking.

Have you all seen the guy advertising Graden hire for about 220 a day? ( maybe it is one you guys? ).

Fingers crossed for weather tomorrow.

Graden, blower, seed, fertiliser loam sorted

any tips on the best use of the graden thinking 3-4 passes.

7 Oct 2011 by Grassman2011

Three is usually enough but depends on what you have pacman. If you are using that blower to clear up best of luck and watch the weather

autoroller.bmp 7 Oct 2011 by pacman75cricket

forecast looks ok here slight chance of shower

7 Oct 2011 by eddyinfreehold

Good luck pacman and put a mask on if it's dusty, you may need to look for Vic. Hope it stays dry for you!
