  1. I have 2 girls as well, only 18 months between them, I'm not an arborist but i still work with wood !
  2. RIP marco. A worthy champion.
  3. All my logs (for own use ), are stored outside uncovered for at least 12 mths and then taken inside week before burning, never any problems.
  4. what about an old frontera with the isuzu engine, or if not go for trooper.
  5. My first van was a bedford HA, ex PO van, cost £450, ins £400. That was 22 years ago. Good grief, now i do feel old.
  6. I have to agree entirly to this statement. Can i also add. IMO if it wernt for all the ' extras' that have turned up in their 'support' would this issue really be as big ????
  7. just checked, the nearest ten stockists dont have any stock, didnt bother checking any more, it seems a bit fishy to me.
  8. Nice !
  9. Totally agree Or if your after something older, go for a citreon C15, bulletproof,
  10. Lets get this right, on site you have 1 climber, 3 groundies and 1 H /S guy. Who is paying the h/s guy ? Has the h/s guy got any common sense, or has he just got a book of Q @ A's that he reads from ?
  11. nice photos hama.
  12. Dont worry about it ben, you win some you lose some. As long as you know you have a good product, thats all that matters. Do you really need the hassle of customers like him ?
  13. Thanks for that, thought i was going slightly mad !!!
  14. Think i have mis - spelt it, cannot find it in the dictionary, but i think it means something like, pleasing to the eye. Some one back me up please !!!!!
  15. not used one, but overheard someone saying they're not bad for money. Personally, like for like i'd go for maculloch, for a cheap firewood saw.
  16. Landrover hi - cap, end off, if needing 3.5t limit.
  17. I think it looks athiesiastic to me.
  18. I wouldnt buy energy bars at all, just dont make sense to me. But would buy a standard mars bar or twix and bottle of lucozade or similar. imo your better of buying a bottle of something so you can have a drink and put the top back unlike buying a can, if you get my drift.
  19. Over the weekend, following a tip off, the police pulled over a car, two men driving it, found a dead womans body in the boot of the car. Happened a mile away from where i live.
  20. Tidy piece of work there. Well done.
  21. velux windows fit inbetween the roof joists. a standaard roof has joists at 600mm centres giving roughly a 550mm space inbetwwen each joist. You will need to fit bearers top and bottom of the opening for the window. You will then need to fix the fixing brackets to the window. You then fix the window into the opening and fix down into the tile lathe. you then retile around the window and finish off by fitting the flashing kit. It is a straight forward job, just check the instructions as you go.
  22. That is stunning chris, please keep us all upto date with more pictures. Hope you dont mind me asking, but how come you have ended up living in the middle of a forest in a timber house.
  23. If they put white in the diesel tanks on construction sites, i garuentee they would need refilling every day !
  24. What would you recomend Rob ?
  25. Hi, i'm wanting to get an idea about what type of saw i will require to start milling. I've never done it before and want to do it to compliment my joinery services. I dont fancy splashing out on a top of range 660 / 880 until i know a lot more about it and am more experienced. Would a makita 7900 do ? Would an 18" inch bar be long enough to start milling or do i need to go bigger. Thanks for any info guys.
