  3. Hi Stewie, are you sure it's not a simple fix on your existing engine? Sounds like the butterfly (like in a carb) is sticking shut, mine did same thing when the linkage popped off, try fixing it in the open position with a cabletie. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  4. Here's a handy sign that turned up on a truck I bought from another member Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

  6. Send apprentice to knock on, tell him they offered earlier and they said to knock when we are ready.
  7. Not a face, caught this ent trying to escape wearing a hippy jumper, so cut off his head in the usual way..
  8. With a loader or you could handball if you had to
  9. Yer joking. The plate under the bonnet just has the vin and the rest is blank, maybe they filled it in with marker pen when it was built twenty years ago
  10. I knew a lad that had some magnetic signs made for his landrover 90 (aluminium) then had to rivet steel plate to his door to get the signs to stick. Wish I'd video'd him trying to get them to stick
  11. My Disco commercial shows 3499gross on V5c.
  12. Sewing is so last year. I used fencing crimps on my zipper last week. On a safety note I wasn't wearing them at the time
  13. Todays sad face in horse chestnut
  14. The old lad was cold today so one of the lads did this to him
  15. I think it's finished for now, the next project is a lookout tower in the yard, just for fun. Here's a better pic of the castle now its done.
  16. Thought I'd sneaked in without you spotting me haha
  17. Lots of fun building the thing thanks guys, made easier with stihl bt45 drill. I've been dreaming of building something like this since daydreaming my way through school. When I was young three pallets and a tarp were my castle up a goat willow but it wasn't safe.
  18. No just made it up as I went along. Oh planning permission? Yeah I figured building a castle was part of my heritage and anyone who doesn't like it can try to invade at their peril
  19. It's three castles with connecting bridges, didn't really have a plan when I started, it just kept on growing. Approx 10ft tall and 25ft across the front. Took a hell of a lot of fixings. Will be adding cargo net and a heap of woodchip to slide into
  20. Thought I'd share my latest build with you guys and girls. It's for my nephew who is four years old. It's not meant to be straight or perfect. Had fun building it, was a bit awkward among the trees.
  21. Fresh mouse droppings on dashboard were pointed out to me two days ago. Might have to install a trap of some sort
  22. Hi, I had similar situation to this, needed light at the flick of a switch in an off grid open sided rdbuilding, I bought four pairs of LED DRL's daytime running lights for £11 off ebay, I used them because they are waterproof, wired up a really simple circuit with toggle switch and wagon battery, the battery lasts ages but gets swapped once a fortnight for another thats getting trickle charged by a small solar panel. I also just bought a 12v remote control so I can just press button on keyring when I get within 50ft and hey presto lights!
  23. Sounds good to me! I've got the poles, just need to plant them and bolt together, cheers
