  1. This is what i was going to write "This is my opinion only save your self from alienating and singling yourself out for institutional bullying and do the course in your own time. Yes you could try and bring changes but in my experience and those of others who have worked LA Don't bother. The managers want an easy life and want their pension so no rocking of boats. Sad state of affairs and appologies in advance to the said managers who frequent this site who fall outside this generalisation and are helpfull to their staff." But changed my mind thought it was to harsh. So i will say nothing instead and not get involved:001_tongue:
  2. After reading this thread i had to check homebase website to make sure i hadn't got it wrog:laugh1: Mind you said it was hand pruned, must have been by a blind man nothing the felcos couldn't sort out though:thumbup:
  3. Tim surprisingly it did! That was my initial thoughts with regards to bend ratios but the system works well as you can tailer make the bridge to your height. Not my ideal set up though i prefer Knots:001_tongue:
  4. The missus picked this one from homebase and it was the cheapest there £9.99 norway spruce:thumbup: pic to follow
  5. This was my eye on tuesday:sneaky2: Cut long story short didn't slam visor down before cutting and got an eye full of sawdust. 3 hours in A&E, used as a teaching aid for the new Dr.s That had started that day! The scratch covered a 1/4 of my cornea but the worst was by the time i got home my daughter was already asleep:thumbdown: Then Sat my stump grinder just electrically dies:thumbdown: So one work day lost sorry Deano, a stump job in the air, and cold and raining what a week i know how you feel 3dogs, but still smiling:thumbup1:
  6. When i used one in my last job an adjustable bridge was the in thing
  7. awesome link frank:thumbup: got to be the winner of best link eva! love the stickers i hugged it first:thumbup1:
  8. That job came around quick tim you only did it last in september!
  9. was feeling stressed about it now and i can relax knowing that it isn't a bank breaker and i can get back to work without letting people down:001_cool:
  10. I have a pair of Francital type A trousers, which are very thin at the back and are well vented. When i am on the ground i love these got them from Abbeypro in Tavistock and they were cheap. Mostly wear my hiflex though
  11. Cheers Tom and Bob Its sorted now:thumbup:cheers for the help It was the switch that works underneath the bottom push bar. It had snapped and stuck on. happy days and can get back to working this week Thanks James
  12. Hi everyone My TW125 infeed rollers arn't working properly and was after some advice! It is a single feed roller. The machine gets up to full revs and the feed roller will reverse but not feed/go forward:confused1: Is this a fluid or electrical prob? has anyone encountered this before? Would take it to the dealer but need it working this week and can't really afford to have a few days down. Cheers James
  13. well seeing as this thread was already going today started up the tw125 put her up to full revs and went to chip and the roller wouldn't feed in! It would reverse and the stop bars seemed to be disengaged. Anyone any ideas i just hope it is something simples:confused1:
  14. That looks good deer man i wouldn't mind a sign like that simples but eye catching. Cheers robbo never thought of reflective writting. Been waiting on a company that is very good to call me back but they havn't:sneaky2: so will have to call about 2morrow for some quotes. After the poll and the comments i think i will keep it simple. might have a lead on two different chip box's. so i will have to decide some more maybe there will have to be another harry hill FFIIIGGGHHHT!
  15. tell him you will look at it asap and buy on the spot if it is as it says it is. Think that is the sensible option, oh and take someone mechanically minded if your not
  16. Sounds weird if you can collect and view:sneaky2: veiw it or forget it i bought this model 2001 for alot more. Look before you buy or part with cash.
  17. now i do like that penfold:thumbup: my mind has swung back again to KISS
  18. oh didn't look at the no feedback:sneaky2: personally i am v weary of that! arrange to view and see what happens?
  19. obviously cash on collection and viewing the goods working mr ed:laugh1: But know what ya mean i seen a lovely entec chipper on ebay and enquired about it got a reply back i think it was £1500 BIN one owner low hours. Sent an email back saying that it couldn't be one owner as i had seen it before on ebay and that the year didn't match up and could i view it! The listing was removed nearly instantly:sneaky2: so be carefull but if it is genuine could be a steal
  20. I have a green l200. Want to put a back on like John Shulters mobile with extra signage on that. I was thinking originally black writing but i think it would get lost. Now thinking white?
