I've racked my brains trying to think of something that would stop 'us' getting hit by debris that comes at you like bullets :hmm: . There's plastic guards at the sides but nothing central. Ideal scenario would be thinking up a solution, taking it up the stairs to the Dragons Den and they snapping my hand off ! Hand in my resignation from this [temporary] job, sniff, sniff and then ..
BTW.. everything goes up to landfill with this mob, no transfer station and you know what they are like; allsorts of things are breeding in these
Alot of stuff still goes to landfill in one day we bring in 90 tonnes of recycling and send 220 tones to land fill i havnt had a major accident yet but theres plenty of time a friend of mine got his hand caught in the blade but he was lucky to keep it too !
