  2. Hi everyone ,so we are going to make a resin table thats a bit different ,I will post photos when done ,so have any of you ordered and used any resin from Temu or Ali express and is it any good . Thanks. Mark
  3. Well the saw I first used had none of those things, nor AV, didn't cut myself with that. I'd be very uncomfortable without those items now, as I am without a seat belt in a car (my tractors haven't got them).
  4. Great post, i think you’ve summed it up very well here!

    Jokes???

    I think its really great that people are putting up flags around my local village and nearby towns. Ive very recently started a side hustle selling 2nd hand flags (virtually new) on ebay, its great they are selling like hot cakes, Im struggling to take them down fast enough.............

  8. Today
  9. finally got the recently acquired Danarm 1-71-ss back together today, it had a few electrical problems, I can't be certain but it looked like someone had it apart previously and trapped wires when reassembling, I replaced them all from an old parts saw, and put a kit in the carb, before firing up I pulled the exhaust, piston looked new! in fact the top was showing no evidence of being fired at all, it has massive amounts of compression, I'm thinking someone gave up on it after spending time and coin on it and traded it in for a new model, [it came from a dealers shop, as did the other two] it's now running good and starts in a couple of pulls from cold, and one once warmed up. I got a Dolmar CC [109] coming next week, I hope that as easy to sort.
  10. Would help if u said what side of Worcester and if u have any qualifications yet ?
  11. The only reason I looked at case/NH was the extra pump. The spec says 50ltr constant flow so I can track and flail. Flailing wise would be brambles and small self sown trees on brown sites so there is normally a lot of contamination in terms of rubbish. I currently have a green climber lv500 and it’s brilliant, but my business seems to be moving more towards trees than scrub. im thinking 50% flail work 25% grab work 25% actually digging and grading. Thanks
  12. Lol...

    Ladders

    I tried one of these at a fair once. Thinking "how hard can it be, I've a pretty keen sense of balance", I was confident. Turned out it was nigh on impossible, I didn't even manage one rung.
  14. To be honest, your doing well to get three chains worth of life out of a Husqvarna 135 ! Assuming the saw and bar is OK, I'd clean up the bar, get the rails flat and true and replace the chain and sprocket. The problem is these parts wear together. An worn sprocket will mess up a new chain, a messed up chain will mess up the new sprocket.
  15. Just check the local people, they need a 10x1.0 helicoil kit and willing/able to do it.
  16. Be nice or I'll come round and shove a ferret up your nightie!
  17. well done. I'm sure you won't be disappointed
  18. im looking for some woodchips and willing to except a few logs aswell

  19. Thank you Doug 👍

    Makita DUC150

    Nope the guard is 100% coming off before its first job. Note the Fakita, which apart from having a bulky motor sticking out the side, is actually pretty good. Its only a basic DC motor but it feels to have decent power and chain speed. Cant remember when I last used it.

  22. Morning all, Shoulder easing off a bit so can plan work for next week now. Looking forward to grapple saw news Stephen.
  23. Yes but fixing on site could mean you have to wait for someone to come out to wherever you are. It's not I could call the AA to get me home. I don't know why they don't offer a system like you say. Something where you can put the machine in neutral so that you can push it out or even tow it out of gear.
  24. Yesterday
  25. Have you tried this bit of the site? https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/ I wouldn't recommend woodchip to get rid of weeds though. Not in the long term at least. They'll work for a couple years, if in a sufficiently thick layer, but as soon as they start to rot and breakdown they'll just form fertile new soil for weeds to grow in. Better to use an inorganic mulch like chippings or slate. Or just accept that there'll always be weeds and remove them as and when they get too much, and certainly before they set seed.
  26. on holiday at the moment so cant investigate further, but ive unhidden it for you in the meantime.
  27. This one has me stumped. Tree crown is around 10-15 metres in height and spread. Not a lot of photos as I was slightly distracted by the Naturists in the garden and didn’t want to give them the wrong idea. No matter what time of day it is, why are they always playing lawn tennis?
  28. Just buy the Oregon or stihl can, with the Stihl spouts. Throw the husky one in the bin.
