pair of 288 xp,s, built like tanks
-
i dont find it any slower, original thoughts were that it might have a lot of vibes, again couldnt tell the difference between skip or full
-
yep, i got mine from the states, 28" full skip,delivered £26.00, means if my big saw breaks down,i can run 28" on my 372 comfortably
-
they will be fine in a shed/ garage if they are wrapped up well, i wouldnt water them at the moment, in case frost gets them, if you have any hay or straw around, whack some in around the roots if you want to go belt and braces
-
anyone got good/bad points looking at the pro 22186, looks tough and basic, not keen on the auto-drive, looks like a load of hassle if it goes wrong:confused1:
-
get a 28/30" and a skip chain, cheaper than a new saw

the bit about if you roll a quad, you die

i always say that if they could do the job themselves then they would, if they are paying someone to do it for them, they cant, charge for every bit of time that you spend doing the job for them

i had to make an octagonal deck, i made a scale model from battens for the frame and then replicated in in full size, turned out great
-
gonna say that fence is pretty poor, no proper strainers that i can see, pop the staples out and fell on top of the wire, if you drop the wire right back , say 75 m, it shouldnt stretch , if you smash a post, they are only a couple of £ a go

can a self employed person work just solely for me on a self employed basis ? as long as he/she do their own accounts and fund their self employment/business, do hmrc have issues with this:confused1:
-
Those poly decks are bombproof,any of the aforementioned machines are great, but like others have said 65kg is lumpy, i have ramps up into the van for my sarp 19"
-
nice collection of orange, is that a 385 at the front
