Guys,
I'm thinking about doing my own driveway this month and have laid down about 2 inch of type 1.
I need to compact it and was thinking of hiring a plate compactor at about £45 per week.
However, just been along to my B&Q and they have a Hulk plate compactor for £160.00. I was thinking I might buy it instead of hiring as I've got a few more jobs lined up that I will need a plate compactor for.
I don't have a clue if this sounds any good:
Does anyone know if this looks any good for the use I am wanting it for? Also, what is usage time all about. It said it was rated at 20 minutes. What does this mean; 20 min before filling the tank again or 20 mins then give the plate a rest?
Any guidance on this would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
John.
