  1. We did it that way. Build it, keep head down, be nice to neighbors & wait the required time. Do not actively try to hide it or you will loose. Keep good records/receipts of what you did & when. Very risky & the legal battle can be costly. Ours came in at £15k for the planner & barrister that represented us at the full public inquiry. This is 100% WRC bought in the round. 4 bed one onsuit, util room, hall, open plan living space ect.
  2. People I speak to regularly:- Leighton Buzzard [email protected] 07506161801 Northamptonshire using Weedon Test Centre Steve McCormack 07917 154591 Peterborough Caroline Woods https://www.facebook.com/cwaydt/ Cambridge/Peterborough 07703 355 722 Toads School of Driving Or say who you are thinking of using I can check them out.
  3. Can you be more specific in the area you want?
  4. Yes. A 3500kg car with a 1kg trailer needs a tacho unless an exemption applies. As soon as the combined MAM's goes over 3500kg it kicks in.
  5. With active brakes it could be 7500kg as some LR are allowed to tow 4000kg with the correct set up.
  6. These people can up rate the load carrying & towing capacity. SvTech - Pickups Just remember that if the 110 is over 3500kg then a post 97 licence holder cant drive it without doing the C1 test.
  7. Electronic tacho & CPD?
  8. BobG has nailed it.
  9. They reduced the allowed tacho start weight in 2014 (I think) from 7500kg to 3500kg. However the other exemptions still apply.
  10. Nah they sit flat in full contact. Remember they are quite thin so can flex too. In your pic the top one would be nailed into the second batten down pulling it to meet the one under & touch the batten. You only use two shingle pins as each one goes on but the next shingles pins also go in to it so it ends up with 4 pins. The pins I used are 1.9mm (I think it was 1.9mm def not more than that) ring shank stainless with cross hatch on the heads. The bottom rows are made using all the same length shingles. Plus the bottom row sit on the fascia boards.
  11. Go online to the view a licence service. https://www.viewdrivingrecord.service.gov.uk/driving-record/licence-number You will then see that its a provisional. Its easy to see as it has the same start date as your cat B. So unless you took both on the same day thats a clue to its validity.
  12. Yes your right apart from the exemptions that are allowed.
  13. They seem to have missed the "and under 100km radius" from that exemption. So you might be exempt if the driver uses the digger onsite or is the owner or employee of the owner of the digger & is hiring it to some one & your are within 100km of your main base.
  14. The +E on your B will not be medical limited. The rest will unless they are pre 97 entitlements.
  15. Why do you think it would be exempt?
  16. 2 cuts on each 120 logs. Or less than 2%. Not going to break the bank.
  17. Stephen Croucher Williams Driving School Or phone him on 07786578581
  18. You dont have to be in the guild or a showman for some of the exemptions they use.
  19. Yes there is a set maneuver for the test. Diagram attached. Most fails are for the normal driving & not the reverse test or hitch & unhitch. I will ask my mates for recommendations in your area. LGV_PCV_BE_manoeuvring_exercise_area_diagram.pdf
  20. Its 100Km radius now.
  21. You do see him having to manually adjust the log two or three times in the video.
  22. Nice solid bit of kit. I would have had it galved after going to all that work. Re its speed. It looks like the slowness is down to the operator. A better op would up speed 50% easily. A few mods could double output. This is what is slowing it down:- Pulling the holding bar all the way back every time, pulling the saw all the way back every time. Most of the time using one hand on the controls or only using one at a time when two are on the controls. Mods I would make are:- Fit a foot pedal or elbow pad to a handle for the splitter ram with auto return. Join the holder & cutter bar controls so that they work together with the holder just ahead of the cutter bar. Fit auto return on release of control. Fit a variable stop to both so you can set it for how far off each goes goes. Then operation is reduced to:- hand control move log in poss with auto stop for length hand activate holder & cutter with hand control on speed of cut foot activate ram auto return of holder & cutter auto return of ram hand control feeder for next cut length till auto stop
  23. Any vehicle over 3500kg. For this "vehicle" includes the trailer weight. However some uses are exempt. There are lots of threads on here already so after you have looked them up if you have any specific questions ask away.
  24. If you have the budget then Chief Architect 10 is the dogs danglies. Architectural Home Design Software by Chief Architect I used the trial mode to design my home. Trouble is you can save anything so I did a complete shell & printed it out & then rebooted & did each detailed bit then printed it out. Each attempt is only a 1 hour session so you need to play with it to get it done withing that time. It will give you a cutting list of every bit used if needed.
