  1. Past hour
  2. I dream of walking into a second hand shop and finding a mint copy of 'Growers of Mushroom' my current band plays this kind of stuff, British Invasion blues, Hendrix, Zeppelin etc. still goes down a storm.
  3. I would like to sell on and keep some for personal burning. And how would people process this? Chainsaw and saw horse or a machine os some kind
  4. Usually, but not always (the hopeful side of me), a gradual decline over 5-10yrs with Honey Fungus being the final death knell as vitality declines also (epicormics are showing early signs of Cameraria leaf-miner I'd suggest.)
  5. After contacting Greenmech UK in regard to purchasing and importing a used chipper from them, I was given the number for someone at Greenmech France, and informed that this would be an easier solution due to paperwork. Not so good for me as the same machines where a good bit more expensive and the main dealer was a good six hour drive away. As usual with France, phone calls were made and emails were ignored, no reply was ever received about my enquiry. It would appear that sales people in France can’t even be arsed to follow up on a guaranteed sale. I managed to buy a used Greenmech Arb 150 privately in France and it’s been a solid investment. I quite fancy updating to the new 130 turntable or possibly a 165D if I could ever arrange a demo. Hopefully I could trade in the Arb 150, if not, I may have a a chipper for sale in the near future and you’re only an hour away from me.

  14. If you join Geocache you can search for ones nearby. There may not be any tree top ones near to you but they are quite common. I found one or two when I first started climbing - containers tied into tree (often trees in recreational grounds/council owned land) with a pen / paper inside to identify self and see who else has found. At the top of one plane tree (approx) 60ft , there were about 30 names of people who had discovered. Ideally in recreational grounds choose trees away from paths .If possible do early mornings when less people. Hoist rope into tree and leave coiled on branch so that you are hidden and take as little gear as possible to reduce risks - ie no silky hanging off harness. Heres a guy on youtube finding one The Geocache website is Geocaching WWW.GEOCACHING.COM Geocaching is a treasure hunting game where you use a GPS to hide and seek containers with other participants in the activity. Geocaching.com is the listing service for geocaches...
  15. They are parasites Dan. The sooner the public realise this the better.
  16. Walked passed these while shutting a gate by a farm. Not something you see very often, I did wonder about making a bid.... yonks ago, Denn8ngs of Chard used to fit surplus Spitfire and Hurricane wheels to their mobile saw benches.

  17. Does anyone know where I can get ibc crates from in the south West? Looking to buy in bulk but can take smaller loads
  18. Potato crates? They have small gaps to allow airflow but still keep the wood in, would depend if you had a method of moving them once full
  19. Very nice. Wish my body was 20 years younger still! Used to enjoy that stuff.
  20. Work up front, so to speak.
  21. Was only 210 per arctic load
  22. Mate of mine is thinking of buying this box to live in, and he's asked me to do the conversion. Am I right in thinking I could cut through the bulkhead into the box to create access from cab to living area? My thinking is it would be fine as the bulkhead and box aren't structural. Your thoughts please. 登录 Facebook WWW.FACEBOOK.COM 登录 Facebook,与好友、家人和认识的人分享和建立联系。
  23. Ive heard the Sherpas and ASs are good. The Grillo looks like an Iseki, maybe the Grillo is a knock off. Ive just managed to raise the deck a bit on the Grillo, by moving a 'shut off' so the blades can turn in the travel position. The highest standard height setting was 90cm, which was too high and I was hitting too much and digging into the soil.
  24. I love how this has gone from weird stuff found in a tree, to looking at cool old gats. keep it up lads!😍
  25. how about a nice patio,,
  26. Last week
  27. One bump for the week.
