    I'm sure you could get Flea to go halfs.

    Mate I thought you already had the machine. So soon youll be looking looking looking for hours on end. Have fun mate, hope you make a killing and the shed will soon follow.

    Perhaps you should add on your own GST and use it to fund a shed (to house the truck and bobcat you tell the Chief Commissioner of Taxation). You never know you might even be able to store some tools in there as well

    Cliff, I think it will be nice to turn up on site (at least this once) with a flash looking shiny piece of kit. Sometimes when I see a Bobcat guy roll up in a 57 Bedford with a machine on the back that looks like it did time in the Somme, I really have to wonder what the clients think:eek: . Anyway, as I said earlier its the first and probably last new machine I'll ever buy and at the end of the day its probably not going to earn anymore than a battered old POC.

    Everybody here seems all excited by it but...I'm......well...lets just say I'll be happier when its earning its keep. Can't ask for much more though, picked it up today and its on hire tomorrow . Such is the "ups" of small business......what comes after the up???

    Cheers from the overoptimisticpessimist.

    Well done, Squizzman! Excellent bit of kit.

    Good to see that the kids look like Mum, by the way!
