Hi all

Saw it at the UK Arb trade Fair in Cirencester.

Looks like a great idea and well made. Fantasticly expensive though (£80 + I think). Silky Fox UK were marketing it.

Hmmm. I would just push the tree over. Probably good on the ground, not much use for it climbing, IMO.

Looks hard work up a tree.

Its much less $$$$$ in europe for a reasonable unimog. I paid € 700,- ($ 901,-) for a great running truck with 90% tread big tyres, aircompressor and a half year till next checkup. Some rust, but nothing a good welding cant fix.

I mounted a 160 liter LPG (liqified propane gas) tank and plumbing etc today. Makes driving a bit economical. Fuel is about 1,40€ (1,80$) per liter for 95 octane. And with 4km/liter i sure want to drive LPG (0.48€ / 0.6$)

I dont use it for work. First i put on a flatbed for building work at home. After that i will make a camping unit on that radiobox base. And then the time will come to travel.
