  1. Past hour
  2. Swapping to aspen/alkalate requires replacing the rubbers. An arb I know did the switch and had to take 4 saws to the shop with a reasonable expense. However he also has an 880 that he doesnt use often and doesnt want the expense so still uses 2t just in that.
  3. Wordle 1,696 3/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Clean
  4. Completely agree, They aren't a cheap vehicle to run anymore , for most work its an iveco daily tipper- they aren't cheap either. But I was shocked at pete b hilux being dire at fuel towing, really surprised me .
  5. Lambs liver, mash, greens and gravy!
  6. Today
  7. Elm, if its good enough for locks
  8. A two part epoxy would be my choice as it has great fuel resistance and as its a bit thicker, theres no risk of it seeping anywhere. Before that I would lightly abrade the surface to help it stick.
  9. I lied about running great. Early on the recoil spring snapped, likely user error as I have had to adjust it before. Anyway after bending a new tang on the end and she was fine after that. I'll get a new one ordered along with spares for my 020t and 2511.
  10. Sweden, about 9k, project with papers to import
  11. This is all great info thank you. I had planned on reducing the height a bit while maintaining the outward spread so it's good to be on the right track there. The owner was saying that while they had a really good crop last year, they also had lots more piddly little apples compared to other years. Could that be because of the lack of pruning or perhaps that's just how it was last year...? They've been in that house about 5 years now and I'm pretty sure they haven't touched the tree in that time. Thanks again.
  12. Nothing like being happy in your life . 🙂
  13. Oh I completely agree, seens the police are useless , however in this day and age you will get someone stab u in the back by filming it... the stuff you could get away with you cant and because the police are biased - ie all this so called mental health shit, or they came from a bad home etc means that the police are geared up to protect the criminal, including the justice system and prisons...there the worst as the moj are so scared to be sued by a prisoner that they will bend over backwards for them. Nothing will change until u get rid of the human rights shite. Maybe then il happily get involved but unless my life's in danger , I couldnt be bothered .
  14. Hi I’ve been looking for a little mini digger for a while now, a neighbour is selling a 2008 Kubota KX 41 3V for not a lot of money. Straight enough machine with a good cab and sharp responsive hydraulics. It’s not gonna be used commercially rather a bit of landscaping, Foundations and general work around the property, just wondering if anyone had used one or had any experiences good or bad. Cheers
  15. Morning all, Hopefully finishing last week’s job off if rain not too bad. I was never the best at branch walking, and pruning beech in the wet is not my greatest ability. Have a good week
  16. Any chance of getting mine on too? Name is Duncan Currie...
  17. Yesterday
  18. Cheeky cnut, I've got all of 4 months yet.
  19. Nah, lime buds look like little boxing gloves.
  20. Lovely day here, saw a brimstone and a peacock butterfly on the dog walk.
  21. Anyway I have tried to explain to him that 40" diameter lumps of stem will not go through a 6" chipper. Yes they can be cut smaller to be liftable and movable, but thats not what a 6" chipper is for. Grass muddy slope up to driveway, muddy trail down into woodland/swamp.
  22. Sorry, missed the unidirectional part. No, I use standard pulleys, sometimes with multiple sheaves depending on the situation. I can’t honestly remember working with anyone using Unidirectional ones.
  23. Trip out into Oslo today. Needed to get some new snowboard boots so decided to get the ferry into the city and take the dog for a bit of a training trip. She was pretty good and chilled for the most part.
  24. Topping saws? Completed it mate.
  25. Last week
  26. Can we talk about underrated bands in this thread too? Idlewild are excellent (and I think pretty well known) but don’t show the signs of conventional success. I’ve got YouTube videos with more views than them. Mick Dempsey has more followers on instagram. Make it make sense. I’d have given a kidney to be at the Iona show.
  27. The deal was that they got proper stuff in but alas, it is tip site! One that had various chip truck, 4x4 and trailers dump and go.
