civilpek Posted June 10, 2006 Author Share Posted June 10, 2006 these next few are taken as i headed up a mountain pass that seperates tralee and dingle towns where we work around. the there is a weight limit of 2tonne and in some places its very very very narrow but they did major road works on this road last winter so its not so bad now, although there is a sheer drop to one side and a sheer rock face to the other side. this route saves us about an hour and a half if we were to go around the proper way.

civilpek Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 Would you stop posting pic's so I can say...cor look at that veiw,handy camera work thanks ya it is a beautiful view alrite we are lucky to live around it as for the camera work thanks, i just bring it with me most days never know when ill get a nice picture, most edit some of them though before i get them developed so as to get rid of mirrors and stuff. was just looking through some ive taken last week and unfortuntaly there was some very good scenes where the picture didnt come out properly its a bit disapointing. i couldnt say really how fast the big m goes on average as its usually working a day to a day and a half ahead of the harvester, the only time i saw it was the first day out and the driver was only getting used to it then so was a bit slow. but to give you an idea on one farm one section of silage ground was divided into 4.5acre paddocks and it was taking him 15mins to mow them out............ that was on his first day when he didnt fully know how to work it, when i was last talking to my boss about him a week ago he said hes flying now so my guess is under 10mins for approx 4.5acres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
