  1. Past hour
  2. I know a guy in Suffolk who restores them, on the off chance anyone is in need.
  3. Islam isn't a race. Go live in a blood-thirsty death cult land since you're so enamored.
  4. I didn’t want fixed tooth was my main requirement, other than that it was the right money at a dealer reasonably local to me. Always a bit of a gamble buying 2nd hand flails/mulchers but thankfully all this need was a new set of flails which cost me £400 from flails direct. I payed £4750 plus vat for it which is about a 3rd of the cost of a new one

  8. Thanks kindly eggs hope you are doing ok 🤞
  9. I used to work in the IP Telecoms industry. My first job in 97 was for an ISP, one of the first business ISP’s in the UK. There was a real tech nerd vibe about the place and on the tech support website there was a full page banner saying “Before you give us a hoot, please shut down and reboot” it solved probably 3 out of 4 of the problems..
  10. Hi I am looking to buy a Timberwolf 18/100 chipper would anybody on here have one for sale?
  11. same ! 😀
  12. Last week
  13. 40! Youth left me with my hair 20 years ago. I do have a secret weapon. A very heavy sledge and a sharpened leaf spring. It will cut and lever any small stubbon bits. Pic from a previous job. If you cant get to the roots you can smash through it below ground level. I found most of the roots small and some rotten, there was one large 4-5" root on one side, very odd! Didnt take long to smash. Helped customer with tipping, she has a nice small van.
  14. You are as has been stated by more than one mentally ill, or utterly dumb.
  15. kram

    Ladders

    Nope I quite like the ones I got, one of my best arb purchases. They are exceptionally stable as an A frame, light and compact for the roof rack. 10 meters fully extended if I remember correctly, 5 meter as A frame. Only thing I dislike is when using extended with the bottom type sections leaning against a tree, they are too wide and I dont know how strong the rungs are like that. But in that example I didnt need the extra height, could have removed the end section. Anyway it worked. The other disadvantage is in the example above, if you had it fully extended, a groundman cant easily lower the upper section without flopping the ladder down to the ground, as the adjuster 12 rungs up in that pic.
  16. Chain oil? My 201 is always a bit incontinent like that, don't know why it's worse than other saws.
  17. Yup, it will either be petrol or oil. The colour of the plug after a bit of running may give you further info....black is rich, white or oily....oil.
  18. It's a thing. Hasn't seen one before until I saw one in a tw280. They seem good.
  19. I have used a scag flail mower extensively on national park footpaths, have got them over some tricky terrain and lost many flails in the process. The NP had some old scags that were 15years old, solid machines. They chopped them in for new ones which were 10k each and then had to pay extra for electric start. The build quality on the new ones was terrible. They replaced them with AS walk behind flail mowers and I was told they were a lot better. They are hard work, if it's dusty you get covered on dust! But they beat up material well. We used to hedge trim down each side of the footpath, this could be anything you could possibly get a hedge trimmer, then smash it all up with the scag, left a reasonable finish. Also used for cutting grass in car parks, it cut the grass well enough but was only when the zero turn was out of action. Gets a bit tedious stomping round after it all day and if it's undulating the handles rise and fall quite a lot which can wrench on your back. I mainly use a brush cutter now but would have a scag if a cheap one came up but they are never my sort of cheap.
  20. I have ordered a couple of times. Not sure what feedback I can give other than the price was rather appealing and they arrived in swift order, pretty much all one can desire.
