  1. Most crane firms insist on using their chains.
  2. To late, the doors closed on this limited run. 30 pre orders.
  3. Don't know but I can't wait! The first run is a very limited number🙈
  4. I've got a jet boil, I've also got a multi fuel stove. It's an Army issue mark 12 burner. Runs of any petrol based fuel. Once you light it you pressurise the fuel tank just like a peak stove. It's hot and I've nicknamed it the tornado cause its loud! I've made full meals on it and a tank of fuel lasts about 90 minutes at full belt. The jet boil is much more compact whilst contract climbing but the tornado is AWSOME!
  5. Didn't like the floating croll idea, not for me!👎
  6. Who else is getting one?🙈🙊👍
  7. After a couple of days with the trolley I am totally converted! It makes life soooo much easier! Wish I bought one years ago🙈🙉 However it needs a couple of mods. The wheels need a spacer to fill the axle and the retaining clip should be replaced with a split pin. Mine came of twice today. Also the black protectors on the extension are very poor and come of when you invert the barrow. I'm going to replace mine with a golf ball. Very hard wearing and safe if you fall onto the poles. Great bit of kit!👍
  8. I use the ISC lock safe and I put both hands on the top and not in the handle.
  9. This is what they look like today. .
  10. You insert the slime through the valve removing the valve first.
  11. Expanding foam will collapse. I've got slime in there now! I've already e-mailed green tyre. Did you just order a tyre or wheel and what was the size please?
  12. Well, what can I say! Tried to take the wheels back to Machine Mart in Colchester and was hold they don't do refunds only a credit note! This peed me of to say the least. Out of principle I refused to buy stuff I didn't need or want!👎 I eventually got a refund less 10% of the price!👎😡 not happy. Filled the tyres with Slime, let's see how it goes.
  13. Well getting solids is not as easy as you would think! The green tyres from B&Q are only 14" with a plastic rim and no bearings. I think they will fit the 25mm axle? Picked some 15" wheels up from Machine Mart but they only have a 20mm hub! Now, do I fit the green tyres or do I do a repair with the tyre filler stuff and try source wheels that will fit?
  14. There's another type as well. I'll get a pic on Monday.
  15. David, I think they were a pale of brown like on the stem. I will have a look on Monday.
  16. Found this on an Acer. Anybody know what it is?
  17. The only bad thing would be it won't fit through a garden gate unlike the AT.
  18. Used it today for the first time, very pleased even though it appears I have a puncture!👎 going to get some run flat then source some solid wheels!
  19. Legally they are employed by you and would therefore be covered by your employers insurance. As for running on site, it's a No! Any employer who expects me to run would not be getting my services!
