    yes 3 in 1 will be ok and you can carry it in the van to use as and when

    freezing fog -4 all day it made a wintery landscape on the trees and hedges but no snow this side of the Pennines

    do not use wd40 as it will rot the sheathing over time just use thin oil and do it regular

    at the moment it can only do British registered motors

    Hankook dynopro ATM are a pretty good allrounder

    try the Brussel sprout flavour crisps better for your health than the chippy
  8. daveatdave
    maybe cutting some of the other side off will balance it up a bit

    one of the things is they will have to have a SWL of 150 kg I posted something on it months back

    I hate to think what this thread will be like in a few years time when there is only battery power available, maybe how far will it pull a chipper/trailer or where can I get some derv for my old truck

    no wonder there were traffic tailing back on the 64 no ware for them to park

    try putting some light oil into the cable housing and work it in do not use wd40 as this will degrade the sheathing on the cable sorry for the underlining I cannot get rid of it

    Handsaw

    daveatdave replied to dumper's topic in General chat

    a proper cross cut saw not the 5 for a tenner, they have a larger set on the teeth maybe a straight pruning saw will do or get a saw set and use it on the saws you already have and a file to sharpen them

    do not forget the data security that you have to do with the finger print if the blokes resent it I can see it will not work like it should plasters on the fingers mud on there hands etc even the wire getting damaged the list goes on how many blokes do you have

    I used to suck leaves up with the hand held stop to empty the bag about every 60 seconds if there was a lot of leaves and if you was doing borders it sucked the soil up and sanded the impeller ends down now I just blow them into a heap and use helping hands and a plastic leaf rake to pick them up its much quicker

    I used to do about 200 for a bloke that sold them at road side you will need a strong back knee pads and plenty of gloves waterproofs and thermals they might net them in the fields then stack them on to the trailers the work goes on no matter what the weather as to supply the contracts, quite a lot of growers use tree sheers instead of saws now

    that's why you wanted to sell off bulk loads from your yard still 12"seems a waste
  19. daveatdave
    stiff mix and do it in bays
  20. daveatdave
    to run it as a green waste site you will need a license from the EV Agency and be limited to how much you can store and remove (sell) the one I use sometimes has to stockpile unchipped waste till his compost heap is ready and then he spreads it on his own fields I cannot remember how much he is allowed to move off site but it was not a lot

    I would go with concreate try to make the tamp marks so it runs the water off to the side and not hold it there behind the marks. Its going to be a bugger in the winter with snow and ice
  22. daveatdave
    I think a lot of employees do not have the slightest inkling as to how much it costs there employer to work for them all they look at is you charge me out at 30 pounds and I only get 10 pounds
  23. daveatdave
    going round a roundabout witch has a ministry weigh bridge on it came face to face with a car coming the wrong way I slammed all on and managed to stop without hitting him a copper came out and pulled him onto the weigh bridge
  24. daveatdave
    have you checked in the loft to see if its coming out of the stack there or back through the roof ?
  25. daveatdave
    roundup/glycol will not have any affect on the cut stems as it needs to be taken in by the leaves , glycol plugs would work but would be expensive and time consuming for that area if you could use the tube guards then spray say in 2 years time that might work
