  1. if you got a big felling bar on, i can sympathise with wanting to just swap for a sharp chain!
  2. hi mate, after using the method i stated above out of nesisaty for a while, took the time to have a fiddle today, the black wire with green tracer has a little in-line resister(?) near the infeed switch which had a snapped connection, so have temporally wired it together without the resistor thingy, what actually is it/part number/name/function? swapped the 5-pronged relay but no joy, replaced the switch, and it now works, although the old switch appeared to be functioning fine! but the orange wire isnt connected but all functions work! ????? looking at an old chippit, they dont have the3rd orange wire, what exactly is this and what is it supposed to do? thanks josh
  3. some nice poles there! if that helmet were to be 'misplaced' then would be the time to insist on a climbing one, on the other hand, plenty still climb with grounds helmets! ditto about the pegs, took a swing onto a peg on a dismantle and broke a few ribs, hate to think what they would do to youre danglies
  4. personally id spend 3k on the truck, best you can afford so maybe a mk4 hilux (2.4td) buy a tipper bed from a transit and either diy or pay a welder/fabricator to make it fit the hilux, sell the old buck, get some decent tyres and the rest on anything it may need
  5. and i cant belive anyone would post such a usless reply
  6. under a grand??? just got a 130, reckon it can be done for sub £200 i had the 2.4d hilux, good truck, harsh offroad as leaf sprung when empty, gutless if towing over a tonne paid 1400 for it
  7. i dont think its discrimination, its just a qualification that is important for you to be able to do the job, pricey it may be, but its an investment in yourself, youre future
  8. found out ive got a husqvarna 61 "rancher" which can have a 28"bar as opposed to the standard 61 which was supplied with a max of 24 a freebie about 5 years ago Model Profile: 61 RANCHER
  9. to be fair, those price hikes were due to the economy-its happened with everything we import near enouge, a new japanese sports bike is unreal money now! what i meant was id much rather pay a bit more on purchase price than have to upgrade-eg, a new saw, if you want the upgraded filter, youve effectivly paid for the standard AND the upgraded, where as if it came with the upgraded one, youd save the cost of the original . . . if that makes sence
  10. nice one mate, i picked the tickets up a couple hours after seeing you, had a hard job getting 2 out of him! will be there tommorrow night and sunday night to see a rockabilly act which should be a laugh, although gotta be at work at 7am monday . . . and a drive down to kent sunday morning . . . sure gallons of red bull will save me once again
  11. hopefully i'll find some nice slim blonde folk buddy there too
  12. wahey, on wednesday me and my groundie done half day at the Cambridge folk festival Cambridge Folk Festival thought we'd push our luck and ask for some freebies, pestered them again today, and got 2 full passes for the 4 days! well chuffed, half the artists arnt even folk music which is a bonus! much better than a cuppa tea
  13. yeah, theyre crap, went through 3 in about 2 months, then suddenly, this one has lasted 6 or more touch wood
  14. cheers field marshall
  15. where on faceybook?
  16. ok mate, just wondering if you wanted a sofa this time!

  20. alright david, you off to jonsies show?

  21. these little lovelys a couple of weeks back (yes i have been polishing my porthole)
  22. hello mr timberwolf got a 150 6 inch, close to 300hours on clock problem is that occasionally the rollers when on infeed wont play ball-if the saftey bar has beed activated/reverse feed opperated then press the infeed switch they turn an inch but wont stay on, repeatadly press the switch and they will suddenly work as normal pulled the metal switch cover off today, pulled the wires out and after a bit of trial and error if i disconnect the orange wire on the infeed switch, start the machine, tap the orange wire onto where it should be, then remove it the rollers constantly turn (sorry mr H&S) so im guessing the orange wire is at fault, what is this wire/what does it do and what could be wrong with it? thanks
  23. sow youre seeds saturday night, pray for crop faliure sunday morning
  24. isnt that called the airing cuboard? or the clothes horse?
