NFU will insure hay & straw so I dont see why they wont cover wood.
-
I am betting that it goes the way of nearly all US programs. First few episodes are good but then it get silly to the point of stupidity.
-
Sorry, where does the "lazy" bit come into it?
-
Will a 4 stroke run ok in that environment?
-
Been paying £50-60 = VAT per tonne delivered in 18 tonne loads. Has risen recently.
-
From HERE Now I am sure that as a national publication that they check with the "horses mouth" before publication.
-
UNLESS the tractor also carries out an agricultural task once it gets to site.
-
I thought that the meters worked on speed & time. So its which one clocks up the rate first. At diff points in the trip you will be billed by Min charge time distance extra's

He sounds like a menace. Inform the council. They might pull his private hire licence.
-
No I din t mean your outfit. I was talking in general. Its just like the hand gun laws. Nearly all hand gun crime is/was done with a non registered hand gun so how does increasing the legislation help? The gun is already outside of the law as is the owner.
-
If people are ignoring the existing laws & regulations, adding more will not increase compliance or safety. I would even go as far to say that it could decrease compliance as people get to the FFS stage & say stuff it.

If you are not after max power but want better drive ability & MPG then as it would improve the vehicle why dont the makers program the chip better? I understand when you are moving the powerband or increasing the BHP that chipping is good & why the makers dont do it. But better MPG & better drive ability should come as standard.
-
Why? Most 7.5 ton trucks can still only carry 3 ton ish & most 3.5 tonne trailers will carry that. A few will do 4 tonne but not many.
-
If the engine is running fast enough & the chain moving before you touch it to the wood & the engine keeps running fast & the chains stops then the clutch is busted.
-
With the 4 tonne air brake conversion, will you be that much better off by the time the extra weight has been added to the tow car (reducing its capacity) & the trailers weight increase due to the added brakes & strengthening. So unless they also increase the train weight the bit extra that can go on the trailer is lost on the tow cars capacity. A bit like the 3 axle trailers actually carry less than the 2 axle ones.
-
So now all PaulB has to do is re loop them in to one chain & the jobs a goodun lol :sneaky2:
-
You will have to charge more as its going to take you much longer to fill & empty all those bags. Barrow bags are for small orders (or so you can take them round the back) not full trailer loads.
-
I think you change all the files as needed. So you are paying for very expensive plastic handles.
-
It holds standard sized files. You need 2 sets of files as you turn it a round when changing sides.
-
The VAT rise should not affect firewood sellers. Every thing you buy is at 20% every thing you sell is at 5% (unless to trade) You would have to mark up you base costs by over 400% to be worse off.
-
No I dont do loads as its not my main income. However I am very very careful & dont cut on the ground without raising the log & dont cut rotten bases as that really dulls the chain. A chain a week sounds expensive. Not just the chains but in all the files you would need to have sharpened it away. I did wonder if the bar was a bit big for the saw, but as it was sold with this bar & its a standard offering it should be ok with one.
-
Cheers, all ideas welcome.

Well its arrived. Just been fettling the wiring of the speed indicator (yay it had one). It has the the makers name as GENETRACT. Its def single phase. Now do I make a frame for it to go on the 3 point link or bolt it down? Bolting it down would have to be to some tree trunks made into large sleepers so still moveable but not as easy as a frame. I am guessing that at full output we are talking some serious power. Would a normal shaft be ok or will it need a shear bolt or clutch one
-
Just like the pleasure boater now can only buy 4 stroke outboards. Cant you make a 2 stroke diesel like the glow plug engines in RC models?
-
Its got an 18" bar on it. I am sure I did read some where that the 250 was a little heavy on fuel but cant find it now. The chain that is on it (original Sthil chain) was put on last year part way through doing last years firewood (but not doing all the cutting as we had a processor in). It has done all my felling, snedding & logging up for 12 months. So its done a lot of work & still has enough life left to still be on the saw this time next year as long as I dont hit any thing in a big way.
