  1. As Joe says stick rope in washing machine, a good soak in water before helps. I am lucky as wife works with me and suggests time to wash rope, spose its better than me swearing at rope all the time.
  2. Old fuel, older than a month goes in lawnmower/ skidsteer etc or washes out the chain oil tank(very rarely)
  3. Ah but you've retired steve,but agree with you
  4. Got both, both look good in different ways. But are we getting into a chainsaw beauty contest?
  5. Far too cheap, up your rates or your only going one way. Meant in a positive way
  6. You've had experience of them Ian then?, same here. Worked smarter but didn't get paid for the saved day !!!
  7. whoopie sling, think 20 or 22mm as its what i've got
  8. Craig at least fleabay being quick for a change delisted her 60+ items in less than 30 mins
  9. Shes back again with a large number of plant items, such as £2000 TW190 chipperhttps://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TIMBERWOLF-TW-190-TFTR-WOOD-CHIPPER/122945657903?hash=item1ca021dc2f:g:skkAAOSwlFdac3b0
  10. Not as far as I know, logs laid on the ground will sometimes root and shoot
  11. Also bear in mind that the Miss Krankies thinks shes running the country up here are you ready for her
  12. Yes chip onto pathways,just don't cut or chip into enclosed space.There was a thread on here where laurel was carried in I think a panel van then driven for a whilst and driver did not feel well after. Think its a form of cyanide that's released from the fresh cuts/chip IIRC
  13. That's a pint and a bit of Stella mark bit extravagant for you, priorities
  14. Not ideal but has been done before. Sometimes run a 19mm rope through a16mm isc pulley as a redirect, not at main anchor point, not ideal but needs must sometimes
  15. Dont think you will advance much each step as too close together. I use a right foot pantin and a left leg home made HAAS type ascender You beat me Mark, must learn to type faster
  16. Yes, at least its usable now, not left in the truck
  17. Wasgoing to say rakers too deep, but you've already checked. Try a new or anoyher chain and see if its any better
  18. Had my haix's resoled with meindl soles, so far still attached
  19. Similar to potatoes and tractor exhausts
  20. My thoughts gone from womens stuff to 20 ish tractors/diggers and chippers etc
  21. Another scam, too good to be true at that price ?. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2010-TAKEUCHI-TB016-FULL-CAB-1-8-tonne-MINI-DIGGER-EXCAVATOR-3-buckets/173128448348

    Terex HR13

    Looking at a Terex HR13 mini digger. 2004 with 2900 hrs. I understand they are a rebadged schaffer. Anyone with experience of these and what to look out for. Tracks are 1/2 worn, some play in the arm bushes at digging end, i assume these are relatively easy to source. Track sprockets are good. Have to have a look at it running next week.
  23. Does anyone still sell canker knives, i've got one but never seen another since. Had it at my last work(Bayer) for cutting out canker, where tree removal was not an option in the orchards which were used for replicated agchem trials.
  24. Oh for those heady days carefree days
  25. Apple canker, cut off affected part and burn. The mildewy part will prob be woolly aphid, diff to control as reduced chemical arsenal now. Could try water with washing up liquid or soft soap, to break up the waxy coating which gives it its grey colour and protects them
