    I bought it from a biker store on ebay It has a pay as you go sim card in it, £10 lasts forever All you need is very basic electrical knowledge and some sort of "trigger" I used micro or limit switches, you could use magnetic switches or anything. If you need Andy you can look at mine setup

    The snitcher retails for around £100 It gives me total peace of mind now, I got fed up of wondering whether or not the containers were still in one peice everytime I went to the yard. Now there's no worry, if they are touched, I will know

    This is what I have on my containers, it works a treat. The Snitcher - Track Your Bike Guard All you need is a car battery and an electrical key switch to turn it on and off, car battery last 6 months without charge If someone touches my containers, I know within 10 seconds and can and have been down there within 2 minutes. Very funny to see their faces when caught red handed You will find it is the same group targeting you, since I caught them and faced up to them I have been trouble free. They used to trash my container locks 5 times a year

    You'll get an half decent tractor for that but you'll get a bag of spanners telehandler

    No worries guys, my pleasure. There is a gauze filter in most carbs....the symptom for the gauze needing cleaning is a gradual decrease in power under load over short period of time, until eventually the saw will start and run but dies as soon as you try to cut. I mix my fuel in 20 litre jerry cans which means that oxidisation from inside the cans blocks the gause filters on most of my mainly used saws all around the same time, normally every 18 months to 2 years they get a clean. The aim of the vid is to try and save some of you a lot of hassle putting your saws into a repair shop and losing a couple of days for the sake of a ten minute job to most of you once you know how If I think of more I'll post

    I think it's fake If you look really carefully, that varigated ivy leaf in the background looks plastic

    I like the bit where he runs with the bowl on his foot and then his daughters comments on not being scared of spiders at the end, I've just played it over and over creased up laughing
  15. Dean Lofthouse
    That was hilarious

    You need to change that filter also Dean, you will find that after changing the filters it will cure the problem. Take the old filter to a fram dealer and they will cross reference it for you I come across this regularly as I service a few peoples timberwolfs and they dont bring them in till there's a problem. When you buy the filters, buy a few of each and change them regulary, at least every 100 hours and you should have any more problems provided your tank is clean. There is a bleed screw on the injector pump if you follow the pipe up from the cartridge fuel filter you will see it. Turn on the ignition and let the electric pump do it's stuff

    I'm sure that will be happening again, it's going to a mad scottish man with a crane
  18. Dean Lofthouse
    That sounds a better idea Chris, I'll have to do some googling on that. It's exactly what I want. The practico was brilliant that way, fast down till it touched then straight onto power stroke. Problem with the height set Gareth is my logs are all over the place length wise, I'm going to have to strat cutting them to a standard size
  19. Dean Lofthouse
    This one is going to be a lot slower than the 20ton. The power stroke is very slow, it could have done with being two speed same as the bigger one, I'm thinking of putting a higher volume pump on it and I haven't even split a log yet
  20. Dean Lofthouse
    Two fuel filters, change both of them
  21. Dean Lofthouse
    ....and if Joey did stick his hand between blade and log, joey would sue the manufacturer for his stupidity. It is the manufacturers responsibility to make their machines as Joey proof as possible.
  22. Dean Lofthouse
    Decisions decisions......just buy both....I have The only problem then is... which shall I use today that one or that one
