  1. If they are timber posts then sit them on some levelled strategically placed breeze blocks and brace the post to the subframe with timberlock screws/bolts or you can but a "shoe" type bracket that the post sits in that you concrete into the ground, think Simpson tie make them ? Be careful if you nail as these will rust and discolour the boards !

  4. Gotta be a wind up for sure ? Sounds like he was using an electric strimmer too ? And as for using herbicides without a licence, oh dear !
  5. Save yourself the hassle and go for an Etesia or similar mate, Murray are aimed at the public not trade and will need replacing in no time if used pro.
  6. Bump for a lovely Caravaners night Well I bought a Static on the Coast and I have to say it's awesome, apart from the cold mornings and nights we've been having lately of course, my lad loves it to. Thanks for all the advice etc lads. I'll be adding a solar panel when I build a shed in the next few weeks and might even add a burner later in the year too. JD

  8. Morning Folks, What kit do I need to setup a Satellite system for the Euro stuff and what would I expect to pay in subscriptions etc, the system is for my caravan which wont be moving far so it doesnt have to be portable etc, expect a fair few questions on this as I havent a clue where to start. Cheers all. JD

    Well we went for the Micro Digger in the end, a Takeuchi 108, 2002 model all piped up and ready to go, got a few jobs lined up already, the first of many more excavators hopefully Micro Digger and Driver services covering Whitehaven, Workington, Cockermouth, St Bees, Egremont, Cleator Moor, Cumbria
  11. Pouring down and quite gusty here on the west coast of Cumbria, we are not gonna get much work done today by the looks of it.
  12. I thought it was different mate, on checking it's the same though Been under the truck today and its all solid enough, was covered in mud under there though, so all cleaned off, u/ joints and other nipples greased, but i need a bit more time to check the universal joints on the driveshafts for play and the oil levels in the diffs etc. Hopefully one of these will sort it, checked the rubber / metal bracket and it seems fine, no perishing of the rubber etc ? Cheers JD
  13. Cheers, Ive ordered some big van ramps from flebay and will get under it when they come. Any ideas on who has the worshop manual pdf's I keep seeing on google mate ? Cheers JD
  14. Hi, whilst searching google for an answer to my L200 clutch / driveshaft judder I came across a couple of pdf's form this forum and wondered if some kind soul could help me out with diagnosing the problem ? When setting off in first or second i get varying amounts of juddering depending on how long the vehicle has been used for that day and how many revs I use ( more giving less vibration ) Is this a drive shaft uv joint or similar problem or is the clutch goosed ? has anybody come across this before or know of this problem, any advice much appreceiated. JD
  15. Wow, that's awesome mate, what a way to live !
  16. Get a VOIP account, you then can buy any amount of geographical numbers like the one I have. I have one only because I don't have a bt landline, the Voip number is diverted to my mobile. Voipfone - Landline And Mobile Call Prices
  17. I really fancy giving this a go mate, but don't have the hex dumbells, looks proper hard work though which is what I need to shift the love handles.

  18. Sorry to hijack the thread a little but which CSCS cards do you lads have if any ? We are looking to get onto site and need the relevant cards for Decking and Fencing, so I have phone Lantra etc and I'm still not sure if we need FISS or what the hell ? Cheers JD
  19. I want one ! What sort of money are we talking for one like the Kenny Sheperd promo ?
  20. Nice job that mate, did you make the Trellis yourself or buy it in ?

    The positioning on a slope is a great point, one I hadn't considered at all. Cheers
