Brings a tear to my eye reading this. I had my beloved meg put to sleep about 2 months ago. She was a whippet / collie cross, she was my constant companion as well, time is a healer, but i do have a picture of her on my desk to remind me of her. I will get another dog one day, but i am scared that i will always compare the next one to meg.

There are plenty of threads on this in the chainsaw section. Baiscally its what you feel is right for you.
-
Its not my type of thing, but if it suits your purpose then well done for imagination.
-
If you can, go for the 7900 / 7901 instead, some people on here swear by them. Thats next on my list.

I quite like my makita 4300, its only 12 mths old but i just love it.

Brilliant pieces of kit, i like the little pto chipper.

I had this last week. For the last 12 months i've been working for the local nhs on an 'as and when basis' however, i have never been laid off in the whole 12 months. For a few months informal negotiations have been going on about a better contract. Last week i got told i had a 6 mth contract on better pay, however due to rules and regs i had to have a proper interview, my boss just said come to my office for nine and we will do it then. Now as i was working that day i could of turned up in my uniform, however i decided that as it was still an interview and no contracts have been signed yet i went for the full works, trousers, shirt, tie and jacket. I know i made the right choice, just from the comments i recieved. You should treat it as a proper interview and nothing less.

Looks like a bloody good job to me matey. Well done.
-
What type of heads do they have, are the replacements easy to come by.
-
I am open to suggestions of other makes, but ideally i would like a split shaft one, just for the ease of storage/ transportation. thanks.

Just been looking at the makita gear, i'm just wanting a standard strimmer but unsure wether makita strimmers are split shaft which is what i'm after.

I'm needing a new strimmer / brushcutter. Doesnt need to be heavy duty this one, just for gardens and allotments etc. I was looking at the cheap echo ones in screwfix ( they're about £220 ). Are they any good, will they take both line and blade, or am i better with something else ( not stihl ).

Carnt speak highly enough of citroen vans (c15 / berlingo ) for reliability, econemy etc. I keep thinking about getting a suzuki jimny, plenty on here have them. Although i do fancy a freelander.

And nobodys mentioned WD40 or 3 in 1 oil yet
-
Stunning, just stunning.
-
My thoughts exactly, reading earlier posts, it seems like he has put 2 stroke in where the chain oil should go, and put neat petrol in the petrol tank. Does he know to mix his 2 stroke oil with the petrol at the correct mix before putting it into the machine.
-
Bigger the better really if your going heavy, but as gtr said, not enough info really to guide us.
-
I'd stick with makita, pro tools and decent price.
-
I'm with bt but swapping over to plusnet in the near future. My dads just swapped over, basic deal is 2.99 per month for 9 months then goes up to a fiver. And he gets to keep his old (current) email address.

Nice work, lovely colouring.
-
Dito I too love that bedford, wish they still made them. They have real character, unlike todays modern trucks.
-
Nice colouring, what will you make from them.
-
Very nice job.

I used to do 40 hrs a week on buildings, plus the travel. Then i was always working at night doing my own jobs, pricing up etc and same on a weekend. But then i was fortunate to get a job with the local nhs. 37.5 hrs per week. Ok the money is poor and its not a permanent contract. But it has given me a lot better work / life balance and i feel better for it. As for my own work, i do it if i want to and thats it. I prefer spending time with the family or on the allotment now. I hoping to get a better contract sorted out shortly.

All receipts and statements into a 12 section expanding file, weekly and monthly figures done on excel, printed off then put into file. Very easy, quick and efficent i find.
