I fail to see how a hole can be retapped , I agree with @Jase hutch buy a new inner.

Thank you. It sure as hell can’t be worse!

Heard today. I know, but behind but... Seriously HAPPY

What do you currently use and does it have any limitations for what you need it to do?

Tapered locks are generally cheap to buy so personally if there's any doubt , I'd replace it.

I don’t see what some people have with Musk. If it works, give the man the damn money or do without it. Hope it works out and you get better coverage.

Hello! The FREE tip site is located in Six Mile Bottom, Newmarket, Cambridgeshire. It's located on a vineyard with easy access. On Google Maps, search for "Dick White Academy, London Road, CB8 OUH" and follow the left-hand road all the way down until you come across our vineyard on the left. Give me a call, and I'll direct you if need be! There's plenty of room to dump the chip and turn around, too.

As the bloke gleefully told us on the speed awareness course.

Give it to musk or give it to BT to be swallowed up by their ridiculous bonuses. I know what i'd rather.

Thanks Alan.

It's not the driving, it's other drivers! I find it so frustrating when they all dawdle around at 70 or 80mph, I could literally be there 90secs quicker if they got out the way!

I am thinking of purchasing a New chainsaw for general use around the farm. Any recommendations greatly appreciated.. Pros & Cons as well..

Thanks I was thinking i need to use two alright and I think my problem is the inner has lost threads on one hole so I’ll try retap or just buy a new inner

Our facility offers ample tipping capacity, ensuring an extremely quick and efficient turnaround for all vehicles — ideal when time is of the essence. We operate with staff on site 24/7, providing continuous support and oversight to keep operations running smoothly at all times. Standard tipping hours are 07:00 – 17:00, however tipping outside these hours is absolutely fine. We simply ask that you notify us in advance so we can prepare the site and ensure immediate access on your arrival. We pride ourselves on speed, flexibility, and reliability, making your tipping experience as fast and straightforward as possible. Phone signal can sometimes be challenging so if no answer and text is good.

I'd be very interested to hear how you get on, we could look to do something similar at home.

Looks to me that the valve are not very well seated, so will have a look and possibly clean it up before reassembly.

Well, I have just placed an order for Starlink for my business site. Grand total cost £19 for all the kit (special offer right now I believe) and £35 per month for unlimited data at a max speed of 100MBS. I never own the kit so if I want to switch it off I have to send it back. No minimum contract. Realistically I have not yet heard a bad report on its performance even in this immediate area so I doubt I will send it back. Only trouble I had is that my existing connection is so slow the Starlink website struggled to even load. Got there in the end though. I went for the domestic package even though it is for my work site - the difference seems unimportant to my needs. And apparently when it arrives I just pop it on a roof or a pole and plug it in to the mains and the supplied router. Hopefully then once I have used this for a few months and am happy it is reliable I will transfer my landline number to it with a separate provider which will cost me about £10 per month. Incredible. £45 per month for landline and fast broadband and loads of calls (for an extra £5 per month I could make this unlimited including international). I will report back here how it actually pans out.

Who's 'we'?

The taper lock pulleys I had to deal with had 4 holes but the thread was in halves, i.e you could use the half thread in a hole to either force the inner from the outer or to screw the inner into the outer, depending on which pair was used.

My old boss had a land rover fc with a Leyland 498 engine it bent a push rod once never knew what caused it, he spoke to a farmer. / engineer how ran Leyland tractors, he said he had a couple of engines that had done it and never found out why.

I almost did’t post the result for the shame I have brought on my family name. Rough with the smooth and all that!

Dont say that! Im having trouble with the grub screws on the large pulley; not sure whats the right way. theres four holes; and both pulleys only line up one way to get all four lined up. two holes on outer pulley have threads and on centre taper only one hole has threads. I can see two holes are to tighten both pulling taper in; but my question is how many grub screws should I use i take it to only use the hole with both threads to hold in place but do I leave other grubs in place or one or none? I’ll try take photos to explain.

Done 👍🏼
