  1. I use the bosch 16 kg 25mm light works of generator or mains, have a selection of points chisels and a spade with a good pair of hole spades covers most jobs
  2. Japanese imports not supported by iseki, engine parts available as are transmission, don’t carry much but weigh nothing, they almost float, to move logs would need a sledge or very lgp trailer, if used with a mower would need to be balanced. No ce mark if that matters
  3. Yes they are cheap until they go wrong
  4. We still import second hand tractors and diggers from Japan
  5. So dig a trench 1.5m deep between tree and house line it with Terram and back fill with 20mm stone, see what happens, should cost £500/£750 make sure the overlaps are welded with hot air gun/ glue
  6. There’s one on e bay at moment with crane
  7. And your extras go down , no tele radio hot water bedding etc until you behave these should be earned
  8. Field tree so 6lbs of staples and tacks, 3 meters of barbed wire, and five included stones. So I make that firewood less your time = beer money.
  9. The company I work for runs 25 to 30 teams we record jobs start to finish and have access to RAMS work sheets and archives / drawings just thought you might take a look personally I use i auditor
  10. He’s not far out with price, once it’s down it might be more but could be just firewood.
  11. Three rows barbed temporary fence plus some gates
  12. I have 1200m post and wire job needs doing ASAP any body interested or know of contractor with post knocker.
  13. The client gives me about a hundred and twenty thousand pounds of work a year, a new supervisor has started and is trying to make an impression, I wanted to check my facts and figures before I started to make waves, I thought my rate was very reasonable and the replies to this thread have confirmed my thoughts I now have ammunition to reason my case
  14. Run it on narrow tyres the put wide duals on when needed
  15. I think 99 was direct drive. they seem to depreciate to about £7000 then stick there. The avant will outclass the dingo every which way. The dingo or kanga loaders are toys in comparison. I think the metal bodied avants are the most usable,smaller and more nimble than the newer plastic with very much the same performance if you could get it for a bit less you should have a good machine you can get a new one made in Latvia for £12000 ish on eBay
  16. How long have you worked for the council if you stay do you get a pension LA schemes are usually very generous,white finger is industrial disease so I would look to take some professional advice before going much further
  17. More information and pictures and maybe trial pit
  18. They are never as strict with shotguns just like the box out of sight
  19. You can get cages for the resin anchor 16mm hole the fob of anchor place cage in hole fill with resin place cap and press 10mm stud in cap keeps stud in position
  20. Are we talking shotgun or rifle?
  21. My firearms officer wouldn’t pass mine until it was fixed to brick or concrete block and screwed to the floor
  22. Nice tractors pivot or axle steer check pto clutch can be expensive
  23. Your method of fixing will depend on the load on the bolts and type of load, shear pull or compression. Thermalise have little strength socare should be taken
  24. The panel is a 400kg sliding gate to lift into position is usually by a hiab, I would allow for four men minimum given the height, They are assembled in parts bottom track then the top welded on in panels, This one was hit by a car and had bent the track, its in a school so we had to take it to a safe area before we could cut or grind, these jobs are mostly done during school holidays , this one couldn’t wait.
