  1. no you always bend the end slightly and have the bend pointing down, so it never goes into your hand, well it has not done it in the last 20 years!! watch this space though:biggrin:
  2. Heres another WOW for your collection, thats very cool:thumbup1:
  3. i dont use a handle- just the bare file ,i find i get a longer and smoother stroke and much needed purchase, almost caressing each tooth allowing the sharpness to come to me rather than me making it sharp......
  4. Oh shinny shinny
  5. If you can get access to the nut on the back of the bolt go and buy a nut splitter (about £10 ) and split the nuts in half then remove. http://www.screwfix.com/prods/17610/Van-Car-Accessories/Mechanics-Tools/Nut-Splitters&cm_mmc=Google-_-Hand%20Tools-_-Mechanics%20Tools%20-%20Servicing%20Tools-_-nut%20splitter?P=P&gclid=CM3h2KnP258CFZAA4wod5x6xHA&source=aw

  14. would you not need to divert the flow to stop it undercutting the banking,you could always throw in some gabion baskets then plant the banking up not very eco friendly but may slow the erosion down enough for the trees to get a grip.

  19. Skyhuck who posts on here has the best mog set up i have ever seen, he seems to use it to its full potential as well. i would not be buying something with a knackered engine mate, it may be the unit has not been maintained and a poor maintained second hand unimog would be a money pit.
  20. Hahaha they were just off the phone to me, apparently you pay £200 +vat for an admin charge then they make commission of 2 1/2 % on the work you do, only if its over £1000. So i said where do you get the work to pass on "lots of different places they said", what out a hat,from mid air??? "we have lots of work in your area and its all big contracts SOME even 1/2 million pounds" Where is that like thats a lot of tree work?? "oh i cant tell you that but its here waiting for you" they were told to.......then i put the phone down.
