  1. Once you have bought into a battery system it’s expensive to change would look at all the tools you will always want another one
  2. Parsnips are the same family of plants as cow parsley etc most umbellifers can cause a reaction if sap, skin and sunlight all come into contact, light skinned people are usually more prone,
  3. Hogweed and nettle sap will give you a nasty rash
  4. Have a look at the Klou grinder better price than avant do very well made
  5. They are American stats 450 under 14s cut with a saw says it all
  6. Had a l200 and a defender at same time defender was better on fuel unless fully loaded with trailer
  7. Insurers usually repair first, I’ve seen repairs done on some very expensive astroturf pitches and you couldn’t see where they had been, far more damage than you have, however if you accept repair and it’s not up-to standard then you get a new surface. I would get your own quotes for repair and renewal, but give the arborist to get there own quotes.you might end up claiming on your own insurance and letting them chase payment
  8. Bought a paslode when they first came over here struggled with it for a few years till working on a sound fence along side a12, the other contractor made me look stupid he had air coil and straight nailers 50 MM to 150mm he had full head nails,he was twice my speed, long airlines only moved compressor three times a day the air nailer were quicker far more powerful lighter and didn’t need servicing they also worked in the pouring rain and you didn’t have to walk around with gas canisters in your pants to keep then warm enough to work.
  9. You can stitch and glue much the same as they repair carpets,usually they repair first then if not acceptable replace, invisible repairs are an art and require great skill
  10. Our mk7 transit double cab with three guys and tools and a tipping body went 3320kg leaving the yard
  11. If you go for the double cab you will be overweight before leaving the yard
  12. You can get gas nailer for stock fencing, go air coil nailer for close board faster cheaper and far more reliable than gas or battery
  13. What would be the chance of getting one to look after my log pile?
  14. Technically I think that’s a crocodile wrong shape nose for a gator and I think wrong continent but I’m not good with accents
  15. And I thought I had problems on site with the log fairies
  16. Looking good, keep an eye on water during the summer and early autumn. I think you have cracked it
  17. Does it have water?
  18. Try Martin du Preez on here got a chainsaw mill
  19. More a case for your local councillors and mp. They can do what ever they want planting wise on their land as can you. most street trees die during the first years due to lack of maintainance so wait an see
  20. My defender 130 is 3500 kg gvm plus 3500 kg on trailer
  21. Probably from unipower!
  22. Try unipower at great Dunmow Essex good price know what they are doing
  23. Try unipower at great dunmow
  24. Does that apply to removing the trees?
  25. As I found out last year being the last contractor on site it was my responsibility to make the bridle way we used good for traffic drainage, infil and surface was all down to me, or the council would carry out the works and charge me !
