about 2.5k all in. Been some mistakes made during the build but that metal will be utilised in other projects/jobs on the farm so we'll not lose out much on the metal costs.
I'll be the first to admit it's a not a refined bit of machinery compared to a Protech or Bryce Suma but I'd say it's better than the Multec offerings. plenty of things I'd change if I was doing another one. I've found a fab shop within a reasonable distance to us that can bend up to 30mm thick steel in their press brake so i would get the outer side shift sleeve custom made instead of shimming box section to slide fit. Fit internal stabiliser leg rams to tidy the look up but the machine as it is will do a grand job and let us get a good number of gateway posts replaced on the 3 farms and some internal fencing done. Any roadside fences are getting left to the fencing pro's for speed and experience.
