    Anyone know of anybody around the Clare area that has a stone picker - the type with the hopper that collects as it goes along. Seriously stuck for time at the minute and near to get a few acres cleared up.

    Would be a bit of a trek to where I am alright! :)

    Thanks anyway for posting video! Out of interest, what's the smallest size stone it will pick up? I'm sure you'd want to have a lot of ground to cover to justify the price of one of them!

    It's supposed to pick between 2 inch and 2 foot so fair range on them

    There was a time when you could go out the Gort road and pick a few Brazilian lads for the day!
