  1. nice one mate, i think we should have a tv forum or a thread about 'tv i am watching'. what do you reckon edd:001_tongue:
  2. hey dave, if you are going to lock the piston make sure you get the alloy one you screw in and not a plastic one, i had one snap years ago and get lost in the engine, had to pay someone to strip it down. it might not even be the pump, have you taken it apart yet to see if it has the spinny oiler thing behind the drum. you will know if you have one because the drum will have a small notch out it where it fits in.
  3. sure do john, keeps deer away aswell but is is pretty annoying, but worth it for the birdies.
  4. i thought i better start a new thread, sorry the pic isnt very big but you will get the idea.
  5. platoon gets my vote, but apocolypse now is a very close second
  6. i knew watching loads of tv as a kid would pay off, thanks mr edd:001_smile: heres this weeks. i a having technical dificulties please be patient
  7. get yourself a vest mat, john maclean can work in the snow and the terorist just fired up a big stihl in the snow.
  8. get a jeep with heaters mate. there hasnt been a landy spat for a while.
  9. i liked the third because it had skid steers shifting gold. proper job:001_smile:
  10. was that the one for under 4k? i think it was 3750.
  11. itv 2, i am wearing my vest. are you????
  12. can that be taxed as forestery and run on red?i have seen older ones in plant trader claiming you can.
  13. sounds like you froze your balls off today mate.

  14. the best thing i ever got for the saws mate was a small compressor with a gun/nozzle on the end. i had the same problem as you. it was the end of the oiler under the cover that broke because of all the crap. the part was pennys but the inconvenience was a pain. A quick blast out at the end of the night, especially after a wet day, just keeps ontop of them. obviously they need a thurough blast and clean as well, but the compressor makes it a doddle. oh and i always by 026 s 2 at a time since then.
  15. you are a lucky man mate. looks like a really great day.
  16. check the screw underneath is fully open. but i would think it might just be full of crap. clean it out with petrol, take the clunk off and give it a good blow. andstick a small straw thru the oiler from the bar end. if the 026 is old it will be driven by the sprocket cover, take it off and make sure it hasnt broken, this will happen if you dont clean it out properly, it will just be driven by the vibration so only oiling a wee bit.
  17. totally forgot mate, sorry. i have just texted my mate who has them, so hopefully get them tomorrow.

    weather is good, i think we will miss the snow hopefully. it is nice to look at but a pain in the arse.

  18. i find when up some horrible skinny dead tree and your heart is in your mouth, a simple 3 inch peg to the backside of the stem can give you that little bit of reasuurance i need. one less what if. but yes they can catch ropes and break ribs.
  19. i never realised that before steve, i knew they were only there sometimes, but i couldnt work out why, as usual it was the blatintly obvious. sorry mate
  20. i dont mind them, i think the pics are cool. not so sure about the 'teen chat' and the date stuff. i have bought stuff from honey brothers at the apf stand before and the guys are always cool, i like the big bald mean looking guy. is that you? he always says hi as if he knows me and has good banter when it comes to a bit of haggling with the tight jocks lol
  21. yea but nu but yea but i mean yeah but no oh whatever shut up!!!!!!!!!!
