Awesome Steve, well done mate -
It can be but you need someone who knows what they are doing and not just someone who's got a welder and will have a go. If I remember right the block will have to be preheated, welded with cast rods then allowed to cool very slowly. There,s a lot of impurities in cast Treequip might know how, he,s quite up on things like that
-
That's an easy one Jammy, cut off the faulty bit and do the other side equal and it will make a good digging spade
-
Cast is quite difficult to weld.

Holy cow !

Just stripped the motor and it's a linear motor, the winding are bright copper, no burning so it could only be the capacitor or a little electronic component, tried a new capacitor, I happened to have the exact one in stock and it isn't that, so I,ve priced the little component and it comes in at £1.20 So I could have taken off the motor and stripped and repaired it for £1.20 Hindsight is a wonderful thing

It's in the handshake Paul... When you are about to shake hands.....lift your right leg as high as you can, put your right arm under your raised leg from behind and offer the hand shake. Problem is, if the recipient is not familiar with this code, you may get a funny look

Only got two days in this week, I don't like getting my ropes wet. Yesterday evening, got and went to put my gear away and the roller shutter just buzzed, wouldn't go up or down. Suspected motor goosed, so called them out, wham bam £380 plus vat. I,ve forked out a fortune this year in gear, repairs and servicing, be much better off on the dole

Wandering out of your area their Ian, keep away from my patch mate

It is what I,m referring to. In my opinion the only thing that counts is qualifications and reputation, not being members of an association. It's no good a company holding AAAC status and employing a load of numpties, I,m sure it happens that they make sure some of their staff are on annual leave when their assessments take place. This is the whole reason I stay as a one man band with one employee, it takes years to earn a good reputation but only one bad job to ruin it. You also find with most of the bigger companies, that they cannot afford to spend time doing a quality job because they have tendered for it and the job then becomes money orientated rather than quality orientated
-
It's all bollox Peter. I could attain aaac status then send out a brand new employee that knows naff all to prune and ruin a tree

The upper Echelon of the council is about as corrupt as you can get, there is an old boys club and that is fact, if anyone in the upper echelon of the LA wants to take proceeding against me for liable, they are welcome I have plenty of material in my defence.
