  1. It’ll go on a shelf and be used for spare parts if I do bother with another one. I’m pretty disappointed in it tbh, not sure I’m in a rush to buy another.
  2. Our MS500i has a load of play on the clutch side - the main bearing is basically goosed. Before I buy another has anyone else had this issue or have we just been unlucky? I’ll get something else if these are made of the same cheese as the MS261…
  3. The 3l Iveco engine is far and away the best out there in the 3.5 tonne vehicle market - nothing comes close to it for torque/general load lugging and towing.
  4. Are you going to recreate the new Nike St George cross?
  5. Stuck like shit to a blanket to mine - OP doesn’t have anything to lose trying.
  6. Wordle 1,006 6/6* 🟨⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟩🟩🟨 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Nearly threw my toys out of the pram…
  7. Clearview sell the paint for touching up their stoves - that works on stove pipe too. Do a few light coats, don’t try to get full coverage in one go as it will run.
  8. Exactly!!! He’d still take someone special to better him.
  9. Tyson has incredible technique, even if he hasn’t got the same outright power he had at 18 I’m sure he still has plenty! His shots come from his feet, and his speed appears to still be mega. There is absolutely no way the non-powderpuff has a chance (unless it’s a fix)…
  10. They are touching so are almost like a very wide single tyre… We’ve never had a problem with them, and no issues with MOTs (maybe that’s because of my winning smile though!). Have done 100s of thousands of miles with this setup across several vans.
  11. The husky fast chargers are total crap - I had exactly the same issue. Apparently it is an internal fuse that blows but it needs so to be soldered in so isn’t repairable (but this is only what I’ve heard). The cheaper husky non-fast chargers are seemingly more reliable!
  12. Dunno - never had a problem. They are correctly load rated so I don’t see why not.
  13. We have run them on the back of our tippers for the last 15 years - they send verge-roost miles into the air and coat anything you are towing in massive clods of turf but will regularly keep you moving when otherwise you’d be sat waiting for a tow!
  14. If you don’t care about noise get Insa Turbo Special Tracks. Not much available that are better if you are truly off road. The lugs come off them if you do extended periods at 70 mph plus though…
  15. Think you could have saved a few quid and been better set up for digging holes if you’d bought a spade mate…
  16. He would be a good pairing for Fury - similar lardy awkward southpaw fighters. I reckon he’d knock the big gypo out in no time!
  17. Hopefully Iron Mike brings some of his a-game and the YouTube bellend wishes he’d stayed at home! Don’t care how old Mike is, 10/10 wouldn’t fight him ay 🔊 | Ozzy Man... WWW.FACEBOOK.COM Don’t care how old Mike is, 10/10 wouldn’t fight him ay 🔊. Ozzy Man Reviews · Audio d’origine
  18. Ngannou convincingly beat Fury - if Joshua beats him (and I think he will) Fury surely can’t run from him any more?
  19. He’d already given her a pearl necklace by the looks of it.
  20. Have you any photos of the tree from ground level with something in the pic to give scale? How close to the tree do you wish to build? How big is the house you wish to build?
  21. I don’t personally think the 12x rule is bad - it’s something that buildermorons can physically measure and it gives pretty decent protection (and is easy to police if the planners have the will to do so). The 12x rule gives a great deal of protection and future success to retained trees. (It is also fairly straightforward to justify offsetting/manipulating the rpa if the rooting environment doesn’t fit the ‘perfect circle’ basic calculation). I’d be concerned that if rpas end up ‘growing’ or becoming more complicated (ie more expensive) then there will be even more speculative felling than the current 5837 system forces (and it is already pretty bad!).
  22. Anything is possible! Where is this is probably the first question? What planning permission do you have/do you need? How much (in terms of actual monetary cost) do you value the tree?
  23. I think they were the same saws just running different gauge chains possibly?
