  1. interesting website. BLOWING UP TREES IN NEWPORT, SALOP - British Pathe
  2. ok here you go.. Pickup Truck Dump Bed Install - Weingartz Supply - TruckCraft - Year Round | 8-Lug Magazine Article at Automotive.com (sorry ecolojim)
  3. massive derail! click the link, then click 'images' (top left of page) and scroll down a few lines and you will find... a wierd tipper body that mounts inside a regular pickup bed.!
  4. looks like its just been pulled out of the river:thumbup:, if it works ok then it'll be a useful bit of kit, i couldn't advise on the mounting but will it park in the horizontal position so it doesn't take up all the loadbed at the rear?
  5. someones going to be busy:001_smile:, was anyone hurt?
  6. no just filed to 10degrees like stihl tech guys told me. the 065 runs the same setup sweet
  7. if its soo precious then get a cutting to grow in its place and fell, ugly scrappy firewood:thumbup:
  8. i just hate waiting.. was considering doubleheading a pair of 880's
  9. something like this? Astra Van Wheel & Brand New Goodyear Tyre | eBay UK or £5 from most scrapyards
  10. i had a go recently, the 460 is a bit underpowered to run a 25'' bar for milling, to be honest it struggled with 14'' spruce. it'll do it but not fast. Ed.
  11. no idea what that means steve, but i can't do it either, i'll kidnap a teenager one day and get them to sort it out.
  12. no holes? how do you get yer foot in then?
  13. i recognise the background in the last pic, nice vid.. all the fun bits without 5mins watching a guy standing next to a tree:thumbup:
  14. not local to you mark, but prices to compare etc, i did mine with this guy years ago and my bro passed it two weeks ago with him, if you can drive ok then only the short course would be needed unless you just book the test straight through the test centre. B+E Car and Trailer Training Course Prices Ed.
  15. i love camping.. but i'm busy watching my own gear or i'd volunteer to wait up for them
  16. looks like just me then?
  17. ah i see:blushing:, yes fencing, vehicle wiring, getting an old motorcar to run and pass an mot when its been abandoned by others (not restoring)
  18. could be a fun toy, needs more room to realise its potential though..
  19. getting all the tools/machines/vehicles locked up at the end of the day and sitting down with a cold beer:beerglass:
  20. rob, i can't see either girlfriend from here, did you forget that pic?
  21. i'd rather run on derv than bio-diesel, just change oil and all the filters regularly, keep vehicle in tiptop condition mechanically and drive sensibly. no surprises then. if you have different drivers -work out the mpg and get them to compete against each other to drive the most economically with a big breakfast every week with the savings:thumbup1:
  22. ford escort vans are the most reliable vehicle ever.. they reliably break down every week, you could set your clock by the one i had:lol:
  23. looks like it will fill that truck in less than a minute!
