And it blew up half way through the job...

I thought it was just the thermal trip as it was used over the duty cycle

I'm pretty sure they claimed to have to get another machine to carry on, but as most TV now has little to do with reality you could be right.

Well , lots of interesting posts , thanks & also thanks to Teflon .. I'll be meeting up with him & a tape measure next week .

I like the idea of the steerable trailers , must confess hadn't thought of that at all . Then recalled that's how our honey farms pair of 20 foot ex laboratory insulated containers arrived & were maneuvered to the place of siting almost 30 years ago . ( cost... £300 each & £ 400 delivery & off loading onto the concrete bases .

If you need help moving it. Either my company or my friend may do it a lot cheaper. A really good friend of mine has three artic hiabs with full rear steering trailers and partial rear steering. He could get it in most places I'm sure. Feel free to PM me. I could get a price of my friend eaisly that's for sure

Well folks , things have moved on a pace , I can tell you .
On Monday some of the guys involved in helping to see if the container thing was viable went to find out about planning , building control , electricity supply drains and water to the site as we want to try & find out the score as to whether any consents were needed & likely costs etc. etc .

Suddenly on finding out that the project would not only be for fit mobile people who are working or retired , but that it will also also involve wheel chaired people & others not so physically or mentally fit , the people we were making enquiries with have said a whole new door has opened for the group .
Wrt planning &and services consents etc things are channelled differently to the groups advantage . Best of all the group involved in the project are now going to be helped to apply for all manner of grants & also Lottery funding big time for a purpose built green energy place on gifted community land .

So there will not be any container bodies to cut up or move .

Thanks to all of you who have given me your time , ideas & help .
Dave .
