just over the border in scotland, an old quarry im clearing for my dad. the swamp isnt that deep as it was part of last years landy bash, once the trees are cleared it will be drained and used as a quarry again, don't worry theres plenty more trees left up there:thumbup:

noticed the bottom feedroller was way over to the left and starting to gouge a circle in the housing, pulled a couple of bits off the machine to investigate and found some polyprop rope/string round the rollershaft on rhs, removed it and refitted but the rollers were central until i greased the nipples then they jammed hard against the left hand side, levered them back a bit but they seem biased to the left now, ran machine to make sure its ready for tomorrow but they still seem to sit to the left a bit much, will it be ok to use? oh the rope must have been in the last load of branches last week or we would have noticed it sooner.. thanks Ed.

the foden was once a tractor unit, till my dad decided to shove a bogey under the rear, lengthen the chassis and pop a crane on, worked a treat for pulling logs out of the quarry:thumbup:
-
managed to tow old foden wagon out of the mud (its 3rd axle drive wasn't engaging) no probs, then had to bumpstart the tractor...all on road tyres(uphill) oh sorted some slightly worn bfg muds to put on soon..can't wait

went from school to work in a garage, been told about all the practical jokes etc so when i was told to fetch 'long stand' i went to shop for 1/2hour, came back to find they were well mad, apparently they had a 6ft axlestand for removing wheels while on 4poster ramp..doh

needed one in a rush 2wks ago, got 1 from a garden centre while collecting some trees, it broke on the first pull..handle was peppered with holes from some kind of woodworm.. under the nice paintjob, fitted it with a spare handle i had and it works fine now, wide plastic head, think it was £7.50 minus the discount

dropping saw in water is no fun, just try to turn it off first, dropped 200T in a stream and watched it roll down the rapids underwater, never seen laddo run so fast to retrieve it, drained it, flushed it, let it dry 2days and it still spat water out the exhaust..:thumbdown:oh and lost a chain-tooth, but runs fine now..
