  1. That would be awesome. Is it like this:
  2. I use yale ropes. Really like them. I have a friend who swears by the fire.
  3. I have a 9" vermeer chipper, with problems with the no stress control. The part that is at fault is the APECS unit, and is made by Synchro Start. They have now been taken over by Woodward. I am having trouble sourcing this part, as it may not be made anymore. Anyone got any ideas?
  4. We used to have two of us with a barrow of mix and about 1/4-1/2 ton of stone and working the stone with lump hammers on standard spadec scaffolding- two tubes under us and uprights about 8-10' apart. It will take pretty much whatever you give it.
  5. I think its hideous. Its a really 'dead' feeling rope too, heavy and unpleasant, aside from the 6 month thing. Its a great rope until you try something (anthing) else, and you realise how horrible it is.
  6. We have a street called Market Jew Street in truro. squeezy belly alley in port isaac.(and yes it is VERY narrow!!)
  7. Tokers Green near reading. Woolsery- spelt Woolfhardisworthy in north devon. Turkey cock lane, colchester.
  8. NIce trailer. A log merchant near me has done a simiar thing, but using a second set of sides instead of the mesh. Very useful bits of kit.
  9. Thanks to ady there- first outing for the new bieleti (sp?). Top stuff.
  10. Todays job was this dismantle.....Cracking views out over St Austell bay. A tad windy at times, but got it done. Hopefully Ady has a before pic!!
  11. You should check out the chipper i have for sale, the eurogreen, if you are on a budget......
  12. No they definitely arent. Quite the opposite. Much better machine IMO.
  13. Put your existing exhaust into a long pipe with a silencer on it and pipe it away. That will cut donw the majority of the noise. Put some paneling ove the end of the shed as a second noise barrier on the side facing the neighbour. It will all help. Keep the complainers 'in the loop' so they know you are trying too.
  14. Rob- we should get together and make a section of this part of the site a bit like tha fungi thing Dave Humphries etal have established, withh all this onfo on it. What do you think? Something for the APF?
  15. I agree with Dave- you have to be very cagey with these buggers- give em an inch and they'll take a mile!!
  16. TBH moving the solenoids on a winch isnt too bad- I had a superwinch x9 before i went PTO, and the solenoids were just mounted on bracket with HT leads feeding to the winch. You should be able to just get some longer leads made up and put the bracket somewhere more suitable. i am sure you have said already, but why do you want to move the solenoids anyway?
  17. Charlieh the defender is the easiest thing in the world to fit a winch to. You only have 4 bolts to undo and do up again!!
  18. :birthday: Have a good day mate:thumbup1:
  19. I wuold personally stick with wire. You will grind dirt into that rope and it could snap at any moment after that. Stil, it nmay be worth a punt if very cheap though.
  20. Oxygen starvation its called- usually the reason peoples fires/ woodburners smoke too.
  21. me too. One of the best cars i have ever been in...
