  1. I recommend the Husky roller file guides. As for hooks vs tongs. i'd go with tongs i have a range of hooks and they have their place but tongs are better.
  2. If you get a copy of the blue book. Forest mesuration they're all in there it's not got yield class in it though.
  3. Looks smart. I want it but can't afford it.
  4. This is the P51 Mustang that crashed. Taken on the Saturday taxing in after doing the big Balbo finish that claimed it on the Sunday. Ended up in a shocking state on once it hit the deck. Hadn't seen it until that youtube vid. It has just been sold to a new owner too.
  5. How long would it be for?
  6. Are you talking ride mowing? We use a topper to do all our ride mowing. Stumps and logs do knacker the blades up. We're putting a set of chains on see if we can get better blade life/quality of cut ratio.
  7. Is that the photoshop effect or have you got a very expensive. Yet great fun tilt shift lens?
  8. I think it is a DH Chipmunk.
  9. Yes it was. As was the Hornet, which was its replacement. Also The Vampire which was the first DH jet was also made of plywood. Well the cockpit module was the wings were all streed skin ally. Oh and i found a FB IV for you in my collection. Again at the DH museum and a rather rare cockpit sanded down of the vampire. Also the Flying Tigers P40 from Legends on Saturday. One of the real stars of the show.
  10. There was a DH Mosquito at the museum. In 1945 Target Tug colours. There are no flying DH Mosquitos in Europe maybe the world. There was one but i crashed in '96. I live about 5 miles from the place that it was designed and built. Here a few pictures from the DH heritage museum. The yellow one, which is kept in a hanger thats falling to bits is the prototype. Back in the early 90s it was set up like those pictures of american fighters with all the guns and bombs it could take! They even have the 37mm quick fire cannon for it. The concrete blob is atually a mould they used to make them; well it was for a hornet they're aren't any for mossies left.
  11. A few more shots. Including the lovely P38.
  12. Nope. Everything was propeller driven. From the 1st world war to the end of the second.
  13. I will. I'm still going through my shots i have over 3000 from the two days. They're not the best my long lens is very slow and soft at 300mm.
  14. The nissan navara.net forums are a host of information on the navara.
  15. A few pictures. Douglas Skyraider 2 P51 Mustangs and a Skyraider P39 Lightning B17 and her little friends Avro Lancaster
  16. Was around 5ish. In the big Balbo at the end the last element to come in. I got on the road at 6.30 as i waited around to hear for an update on the pilot. Did you just go today? Yesterdays display was better as they had a fantastic display from the P40s.
  17. The D22 Navaras that went up to 2005 i think were the ones with engine problems. Much better work horse than the newer D40s. The D40s from 2005-6 onwards have a few problems too mainly cutch based. Upto 56 plate some 07 had euro 3 engines which are much better at fuel enconomy. The 07 onwards have euro 4 engines which aren't so good on the fuel. I think the 08 plates onwards were a bit better on fuel. Its a bit of a mine field but from 07 onwards the engine will be ok. Might need a new clutch though.
  18. I'll post a few pics. Sad news that there was a mid air collision today between a Douglas Skyraider and a P51 Mustang. It seems no one was hurt but the Mustang pilot bailed out and the sky raider landed with half a wing missing covered in more oil than usual.
  19. Hi Did anybody go to the Duxford Flying Legends today? It was fantastic and i'm going back tomorrow. Took over 2000 photos today! If anybody is interested i shall post some up after a good sort out.
  20. I have a Bandit 150xp PTO chipper. Fantastic either hand or crane fed. The 250 is the same model but has a 6' wide feed table. The price its going for seems very reasonable.
  21. LaserAce Hypsometer I'd have one of those in a shot. Unfortuantly they're very expensive the discounted end of line model before thast was about 1500 quid. Does the hard work for you though.
  22. Do you want me to PM you guys number with the Keto?
  23. I start with woodwise then jobs, classified then news. I did see that yes i'd rather an 8000 series valtra. Don't have the momeny for the lot i'm just starting with the timber trailer.
  24. Have you spent all day reading the FJ. I've only just round to opening mine it arrived this morning though.
  25. The one with the big chipper behind it in front of nicks new one?
