  1. I did a few last year by hand but splitting 1 transit load brings out my wrst and tennis elbow and back in pain for a week or so and aint worth it if i got to climb the next day....
  2. thats a quality vehicle we got in the garden....to good to cut up any way. nextdoor has a couple of old series on his farm.and an old log splitter!
  3. i was thinking about getting in to a bit of fire wood......giving away decent hardwood to my competators so they can make a profit probably aint doing me favours also somthing to do on rainy days would be nice when i looked at tractors in the farm trader i had a shock they want 2500 for a shitty old x reg leyland and that was probably the cheapest tractor in there. any ideas about what would be a cheap set up with still a bit of power i was thinking about trying to put an old pto hydrolic take off say on a old rotten series land rover rear prop and using that as a take off or any of the electric or self powered og splitters any good?
  4. I must admit when i first tryed them on i thought id made the biggest mistake buying them......they felt like i could not walk properly and they gave me pretty bad blisters for a couple of weeks and the soles damaged soft bark untill they had worn in a bit.....but i wear them every day at work...fishing... walking and they feel great and they seem indestructable
  5. yeah id go for the klimas as the best boots ive used only problem is they last far too long i cant justify buying a new pair as theres nothing wrong with them apart from they really stink .....any one got any good cures for smelly saw boots???ive worn them nearly every day for over a year and evan the inside soles are still perect... I used to quite like the jalforests sas boots but they lost there shape and fell apart quick...i didnt mind the eltens much either they just looked a bit gay.
