  1. Awesome looking truck.
  2. Terrible news Dean, condolences to his family and friends.
  3. Good post Tom, did you know that the aborigines are the only race that never invented the wheel they had no need as the just walked everywhere. The alcohol enzyme is to do with the east purified there water by making tea the west made alcohol so have been pissed a lot longer:biggrin:
  4. wee soul, theres a pump device that can sort that, i think they are £29.99
  5. :lol: i clicked too, do the website company lay tarmac too i think you have been robbed….
  6. Mark = a big poofy jessie only joking mate you are not a jessie:biggrin: good on you mate Karma awaits.
  7. Looks like you have been robbed twice paul, once your saws and now the payments you made on the insurance policy, both crooks
  8. For me there is so much more to being a business owner than the money, I made more money when I worked than I do as a business owner but I hated someone else in charge of my life, I'm more than happy to make a wage and work a couple of days a week when I choose than have money and be miserable.
  9. Get a road roller trailer, they are on ebay regular for £100, the cs100 fits it perfect. i used one for ages.
  10. They could have had a wee chipper took it through the house and left all the chips on site. just because they are cheaper than you does not mean they made no money. As others have said it makes no difference set your rate and you get jobs you get and lose what you lose. Tommy, he could be a labyboy but he would still be your uncle even though he had tits so that would not make him your aunty or would it?
  11. Is this because they are trying to keep the weight below the 750kg that the metal is too thin ? Just get your trailer ticket and tow a built out of proper steel over a ton chipper:biggrin:
  12. Why a van? get an estate diesel car, plenty room to sleep easy to fix cheap to insure, peugeot or vw passat. tint or get a sign company to colour code the windows so no one can see in.
  13. That was me that said that. And your wrong on the occasion i referred to, they never asked ANYTHING !! i can shout with capitals to
  14. Good looking small grinder that, I always feel 13 hp is never enough to deliver proper grinding power, any I've used in the past seemed underpowered. That looks like it has a heavier cutting wheel, what weight is the cutting wheel ?
  15. Recommends is the key word there. not mandatory.
  16. A's for me. I've known guys that have cut themselves without gear on, the insurance never even asked what ppe they were wearing.
  17. cool, looks well handy mate, what size digger is that and what do you think it could lift?
  18. looks great john, does the rotator and grab work?
  19. If you are going to charge by the hour tell them its a minimum 8 hours. If you don't they may stop you an hour in and hand you £12 !!! £12 is too cheap anyway.
  20. You need to share the van with mark for that part..
  21. you can hot wire the pump solenoid to make sure its opening, it will click and stay open, as there may be a break in the live feed from the ignition to it, so works some times and not others. Is that a kobota engine?
  22. Matty, have a look in the tank to see if there is fuel, do this with a giant flaming torch and if it accidentally catches fire, phone the insurance oh and then the fire brigade:biggrin:
  23. Not my experience, council built them a camp here, they moved in robbing went up they trashed the camp then moved out, robbing went down. Thats a worry tom you have enough on your plate without that
