It looks capable on straight sticks, some trees are ok with this others you have to trim out every branch before you can feed it. My drum is 500mm wide, and I wouldn't want narrower because of the size Y I can just bend and stick in without cutting. Edit - also the amount of small stuff I can bung in at once without it jamming.

Is it not possible to have it deleted in the ECU with a remap? Along with a telephone directory-sized list of other unecessary gimmicks for deletion while it's plugged in. I bought a Japanese import motorcycle years ago and it had red warning light that came on at 80 kph to tell you to slow down. I deleted this intrusive function with a piece of black insulation tape. Thankfully there was no bong. Not that I'd have heard it...

interesting problem - from the comments on youtube (good old fashioned sticky tape!) On models after 24, this function is always activated after starting the engine. My solution for new cars is British style. I simply taped over the camera installed on the windshield. This did not cause any complaints from the system, plus the system does not read road signs and does not issue distracting messages on the dashboard. Cruise control and adaptive systems using the front radar work perfectly (I checked).

I deon't know if you have a button that turns it off but it usually defaults to on every start up . Its taking away controll from the driver I feel .

yep 100%. even dude at toyota admitted it was a safety feature that wasn’t safe

I remember the name Gimlet . Hi mate .

That sort of thing drives me nuts also . I had a Nissan Duke as a loaner whilst my truck was in for warranty work . It " bong bonged " continiousely . Every time you went past a max speed sign it went " bong " . Every time you exceeded the speed limit by 1 mile an hour it went " bong bonng " . An ivisible hand grabbed the wheel if you neared the white line . I hate it .

Don’t think you can disable them permanently, least I don’t think you can on my Ranger.

Yea . Was posted earlier . I thought it was part of the job description .

I originally wanted to stake alternative sides, stake tops leaning in, then bind like a tent ridge to give it a bit more of a three dimensional build. There was no tension on the binding though so it was both useless and unsightly.

the Honda one looks better

Hello. I have a new single cab hilux, great truck but the lane assist is driving me nuts. If I swerve round pot hole or on narrow bit of road it pulls truck back in if I don't indicate. I know I can turn it off every time I start it but does anyone know a way way to turn it off completely or have as an option (great on motorway but not towing 3.5t on Oxfordshire crap roads). Be nice to turn of the beeping every time the speed limit changes too

$3499 sounds reasonable for a 1000cc machine if it doesn't fall apart after a month - are you going to import one? 8 in Wood Chippers MECHMAXX.COM

If you look up North Somerset or Westmorland style I took inspiration from that. Stakes are trimmed to just under the brash. Not a 'pretty' as bound hedge but decent functional hedge Hedgelaying Styles – National Hedgelaying Society WWW.HEDGELAYING.ORG.UK IMG_4490.mov

I've changed my mind a bit. Of the belt drive types there seems to be two sizes, 250mm wide blades and 150mm. The extra width seems to double the weight of the drum assembly but not really gain much advantage, it will act just as a bigger flywheel. Comparing videos of the two, appears they are mostly limited by engine power. So to put the 460cc engine on the smaller machine? This one seems quite capable, nearly stalling with the way he is feeding it. Instuctions say it has a centrifugal clutch which most of these engines dont? Theres also a bigger one, 1L twin 35hp engine, unsure if the drum assembly is bigger or, the same size as the 15hp machines. The 8" rating might be very optimistic but thats near enough the same power as an st6p Forst. This one, cant find many reviews but its a smaller 97kg machine with a 420cc engine. Engine about 30kg. If the wheels and hoppers total about 25kg the drjm unit would be about 40kg and liftable by a single person, so could work for transport by car.

Welcome back mate

I thought when I looked into this some time ago, level 4 or 5, can't remember but not important, I was looking at tree life who could do some distant learning but I think you did have to attend a bit.

Off with his head !

Hello all. Another returning member here. I was on as Gimlet previously, active mostly in the hedgelaying section as that's my trade. I left a year or two ago when work (or financially viable work) seemed to be drying up and I was moving on to other things. Things have turned around a little since then, though this terrible wet winter has not helped, so I'm checking back in to stay in touch with the tree and hedge business.

Surely it is treason, aiding an enemy and undermining ones own country. Same for Mandy the gimp.

What’s in it for Andrew to spill the beans? If there are any beans to spill. Theres no way back to any kind of public life. As you say, a slap on the wrist, complete disappearance from public life. Live out the remainder in relative comfort.

I reckon so, there will be no charges related to Epsteins more infamous crimes, no charges to any co-conspirators to the same crimes from what this interview throws up, no rich (US based?) billionaires issued with arrest warrants, 2 plus 2 making 500 and probably wrong. My thought, he will get a slap on the wrist punishment, probably finding that the information passed to Epstein didn't harm anything, a big fine, perhaps his passport confiscated. The criminal charges will be enough to bar him from getting a visa to many countries including the US I think quite conveniently, UK 'house arrest'. (Unlike say, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, welcomed by Trump to the US despite his criminal past including entering the US on false documents)
