  1. Smooth and easy, slick work mate!
  2. EU delivery £9.95?? WOW! for any size order? Goodluck
  3. Rich, i had the same on my 130, changed the drive flanges, aframe ball joint, prop ujs, all lessened the nock, then new rear diff (found a bargin in a garage) really helped, next to change was the gearbox layshaft (i think) but sold it first Theres so many parts that if all slightly worn, will make a big amount of play. mine was mainly from worn rear parts-found this by removing the front prof, driving in difflock, still big symptoms, removed rear prop, in difflock, not so bad hope this helps
  4. Hypermotard, nice! Keep the triumph, i sold mine then brought it again a year later despite not living in the country!
  5. Is it a clunk when changing or a clunk when putting power on? ie, slowing down with engine braking then throttle?
  6. on the other hand i think the picture of the carved tree shows perfectly how mans mark dissappears, its a very strong picture imo
  7. My 1971 S2A landy was on a 78 plate - into S3 yearage, as thats when it left the RAF, maybe this mog is ex MoD?
  8. Interesting place for the spec on a live Acacia. nice to see no bart simpson haircuts!
  9. Nice trees, Hope you went back up for the rip on the stub in the middle of the last pic!

    poor pay

    Yeah but this industry is about what you can do and experience, not what you're ticketed to do. and its not exactly hard to get the basic tickets is it! Very rare to see a job advertised with no experience needed. itd be a fantastic start to someones CV, the pay is low, so perhaps better suited to a 'teen living at home' its not the employers fault if youre old with bills-infact an eager 18yo newbie is possibly a better bet for an employer than a 40yo old newbie. im sure theres also chance of a magical thing called a payrise too!
  11. Thats awesome what the hell is it? looks like the GMC ironside on steroids!
  12. You do realise Rob (rainford) that a girl saying she has a fella is a clear f-off, but a guy saying he has a girl is a guy hinting at a threesome
  13. that or a tight pair of shoes
  14. I dont know what you mean mate
  15. if your reffering to worcsruss mates rates job, closer to £11 ph (£100 job, £25 expenses = £75, 3.5hours = £21.50ish, 2 guys = under £11ph per man, then tax. . .) Everyones different, different speeds, kit, styles of gettig the job done
  16. After 7 months (half way through the 'no fear gaurentee' mine have splits in the sides from being on spikes on both boots, exposing the Chainsaw protection, and letting water in, ankle supports falling apart, splits in the leather near the laces ahain letting water in. . . i have recieved a returns number and adress to return to the manufacture for inspection. the dealer i brought them from has been fantastic with contacting arbortech on my behalf, and contacting myself
  17. Time for a beer James! Out of intrest, would you do the same job again, in hindsight? What sort of advert of you, do you think has been left to your competition? espically regarding to leaving it unfinished for so long (unavoidable i realise) Was this tree TPO'd, if so (not your decision i know) how was the 'topping' ever allowed? Not a dig (ive done far worse to far nicer trees, as have many arbs), but in hindsight, can you see why other firms diddnt do it?
  18. Although i was in the brown stuff with HMRC last tax year, like anyone else you want stuff from be polite, small talk, ect. i diddnt pass the security test once, i think purely because id been polite she gave me a clue to what i failed on easliy sorted. same with us, someone comes up demanding free wood, f-off, if they ask politley how much for the wood, they get it for free! UtR no is top right of alot of HMRC related papers, past and present
  19. Here dean, hope this works for the UK Watch Grand Designs Season 5 Episode 3 Kent: Finnish Log Cabin
  20. Dean, search for a past episode of Grand Designs, something like Finnish log cabin/house, Think its exactly what youre looking for! Regarding the growth rings, one of many pines i took down last week was approk 30inch DBH, pushing 25m, counted the growth rings, 75%of the rings were mm appart, 250+years old
  21. whys the road tow available with 50hp, but only 45 for the turntable?
  22. Really nice work Yeti!
  23. Nice mate, what you upto for the summer??? Good idea, next time its needed i'll add that part to it . . or maybe just for fun Aload of straight felling clips like 10fells in 10seconds, managing rigging ropes smoothly letting big bits run, letting branches swing then fall ect fast rope handling, fast snedding, perfect chapter 8 picture if you have C8, if you have HGV +heavy trailer end with driving a big rig off into the sunset:001_smile:
