  1. Card board and mulch the root zone would benefit them, don’t dig too deep to remove the oil just top 50 MM let nature deal with the remaining
  2. Got a sloe thorn in knuckle of thumb still hurts now 40 years later
  3. So better stability or not?
  4. If you have the work and can prove it talk to a bank you will need a business account anyway, write a plan and see if you can get an appointment always better face to face
  5. Get the transfers will make all the difference
  6. Check there is no valve in the circuit to lock the arms it will have a top like a outdoor tap although this might be damaged so could just be a shaft it won’t be very big
  7. Still a cheap machine even with the motor costs
  8. Made this for lifting bags
  9. Grandson works as chippy in Oregon uses picture below also has a Bosch impact with splined drive to take auger bits builds log cabins and outdoor structures
  10. The American framers use a 1/2 or 3/4 impact driver to drill deep holes sds will either slip or break your wrist
  11. Just buy the auger price it into the job. if you win you get auger for next job, trying to bodge an auger to drill that will only end in tears, if it comes apart half way through the whole just how are you getting it out, you will need a pretty hefty drill to power it I get mine from Swiftfix in Southampton 02380446644 they can make any size you want up to 2.4 metres In length
  12. What engine ? mine is. Kohler so I’d be suprised if Honda had the part
  13. Mooring will work we do up 200 MM with moles another option would be directional drill not cheap but little disturbance and you could lay pipe in single length all joints being fused
  14. Wouldn’t be my first option
  15. Try Justin kingwell Braintree
  16. Price wise I think you did ok, if you spend couple of thousand on motors and pump still cheap machine, will fit your premise of machines not labour
  17. Too right levelling grading digging,I find them better than wheels and you don’t get punctures
  18. Lift capacity is good put a heavy plate on the rear step but wheel pivot loader out lifts helps to have a fat bastard on the rear
  19. Make good trenchers, pretty good with stone burier in smaller spaces
  20. The builder could still be in business, take overs and buyout mean small pockets of land just get forgotten till someone starts to ask questions
  21. Who are you working for? I work for the utilities they deem the tree dangerous or the work is urgent/emergency we crack on,prove our case with many pictures,
  22. We put in a notice for work for information only then usually make a call to the arb officer, and crack on, do take pictures before and during
  23. Could be still in the ownership of the housebuilder
  24. Had similar problem on mates Ranger, used to tow mini digger, conclusion was worn out box, too expensive to fix only showed up when towing, traded in
