  1. spent all day yesterday on one' been waiting for a few days of dry weather because i've had to drive across the middle and turn round ect. the green keeper knows every soft spot of grass. i just followed his instructions and didn't leave even aslight mark. cleaning up is a pain
  2. Not everyone can afford a big yellow gay box Some people are being undercut so much they have to try to stay in business by lowering their prices A consequence of low prices is you cant afford decent kit or to buy kit you should have or need
  3. Its called Nylon 6 Mesterh and is used to make bearing pads or gear wheels etc from this ebay user eBay My World - gfgplasticfabricationsltd
  4. I emailed the local Bat group a couple of times to ask their advice on becoming licensed and they didn't even afford me the courtesy of a reply They are up their own bums Bob, either that or they dont want anyone else cashing in on surveys, they want it all for themselves
  5. If you use celox, you follow the manufacturers instructions It would be applied after blood loss anyway, by the time you get down and get out the celox a minute will have passed anyway....
  6. Modifification done. Huge high impact nylon wear pads spreading the load over a wider area rather than concentrating it in four small pads, so should last many times longer, whether greased or drylubed
  7. Concentrate your focus near the compressor pump, inside they have little "poppet" valves I call them which basically act as one way valves, they wear and sart to leak air back then the pump just pulses the air rather than pumping it and it will never build up to pressure
  8. Yes I know what you are saying, it's not the best material to use
  9. Charge the air system with a compressor and the best way to find the fault is to do as stevie said, listen for it
  10. the only way condensation can form is by warm air hitting a cold surface' if you are moving that warm air out of the shed and equallising the temperature inside and out its impossible for it to form unless the tin sheet is very much colder than its suurounding ait temp theonly other way is if the groung temp inside the dshed is heating up still air inside
  11. Yes, so the warm air inside can quickly escape
  12. What happens is the tin shed heats up and warms the sheds contents, then you get a sharp cold night and condensation when the warm air inside hits the cold tin. Same as when you put a warm machine in there Johnny
  13. I'm betting you'd book yourself on the following courses Arb Degree Fungi world tour Advanced trauma course Splicing course Thinking beyond three strand and prussic course
  14. I doubt it' Mozza is a big lad....and he's from Mozz-side
  15. Could have been a bit of stolen car ??
  16. He was only getting his own back for me booking him and Mozza a twin bed
  17. I'm sure he'll have something very specail for you Tony
  18. That reminds me of those that say they'll carry on working if they win the lottery.... Like hell I would, I'd be offsky on my big yatch around the world, I hate arb work I hate any work
  19. I dont drink at all Tony, so on the very few occasions I am given a free ticket, I'm in there. I was quite poorly in the morning, couldn't stomach my breakfast very well and then I drank a coffee which stevie had put a sachet of tomato sauce in and I didnt even notice
  20. Haha, if I need to know anything about fungi I'll just give me uncle Dave a ring
  21. I can see a lot of epicormic so that means it's fine
  22. As long as you dont talk fungi or pollards no worries
