  1. I'll give them a shout thanks. Any idea on cost? I've got a place I can drop them in to but it's about 45min drive away and about £40 a set due to the double angle Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  2. I've heard that about Saturn knives. Darent send them my blades! Spectrum plant were very good when used them before but are they timberwolf only? Or anyone recommend somewhere that does Jensen blades? Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  3. I've decided it's pretty useless. Loads of power but no good against roots and old cement. Put all this in so far in last few days and it's been no good on any hole yet. We've been persevering with a manual auger and post hold digger and a metal bar to dislodge stones[ATTACH]222552[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  4. Bought one of the £120 ones a few weeks ago. Was useless on the job I bought it for as to be fair it was along a row of trees and old fencing we'd just taken out so jars when you hit something solid. Gonna be using it today on fresher soil so will let you know Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  5. Looks very smart. Just wondering why you call yourself southern treework if you're in the north west? Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  6. Yeah good company. Ordered a set of Greenteeth from there monday Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  7. Lose the puns, you're selling £20k machines not raffle tickets! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Chainsaws.

    Eh? 365 is never going to be the lightest option! Heavy tank of a saw but slow. 15 inch bar has to be a 550/560 regardless of hard or softwood Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  9. Dropped.my.saw this morning and split the tank. Think gonna replace it rather than try to patch it unless anyone knows a resin that'll do the job and won't dissolve when put fuel in it? While I'm doing it is it worth changing the cylinder cover to the reinforced version or is that a bit of a nightmare? Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Jokes???

    A new Army Captain was assigned to an outfit in a remote post in the Afghan Desert. During his first inspection of the outfit, he noticed a camel hitched up behind the mess tent. He asked the Sergeant why the camel was kept there. The nervous sergeant said, 'Sir, as you know, there are 250 men here on the post and no women. Sometimes the men have urges. That's why we have Molly The Camel. The Captain said, 'I can't say that I condone this, but I can understand about the 'urges', so the camel can stay.' About a month later, the Captain starts having his own 'urges'. Crazed with passion, he asked the Sergeant to bring the camel to his tent. Putting a ladder behind the camel, the Captain stands on the ladder, pulls his pants down and makes passionate love to the camel. When he's done, he asked the Sergeant, 'Is that how the men do it?' 'No sir. They usually just ride the camel into town. That's where the girls are."
  11. Most annoying thing for me is if use Google to search for whatever and it finds an arbtalk thread I'll want to read it so click the link and it opens the app but not the thread so have to to search again Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. It gets worse. Amazon and Google are selling people devices that listen to every word you say!!??!! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  13. You should have borrowed more and bought a new unimog with 15inch bandit and you'd be rich now. That's how it works, no? 😉 Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    261?

    Thinking about replacing my 550 with one, really liked my old 261 before it got stolen. How's the build quality? Saw one in the shop and wasn't keen on the plastic handle. Would prob get heated handle just so it's metal Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    261?

    Haha plenty of turmoil! I thought it was something to do with a part not being perfectly circular so they redesigned the engine on the new shape model? Had anyone had problems with the 2016 on ones then? Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    261?

    The bearing issue has been fixed a while I thought? Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  17. Everyone benefits from healthcare regardless and that's the point. Just the individual benefits from higher education and will get an increased wage because of it. Should I get funded to start my business with a free tipper and a chipper so I can earn more as well? If you want to better your knowledge fair play, you're a grown up, pay for it same as I did by investing in tools and training Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    The engine is too big and the materials are too thick so smaller engine and thinner plastic is the way to go 😔 Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  19. Why should MY taxes pay for YOU to go to uni so YOU can earn more money? if you're paying it yourself via more taxes great, pay it separately from your taxes by paying back the loans and reduce the countries tax bill by 11 billion! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    Found on a German site. Looks like they've shed some weight and put a smaller engine in it?? Looks closer to a 441 in specs so imagine that'll be getting dropped from the range[ATTACH]221908[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  21. Agree with this. I don't think anyone else wants the job tbh so got to give her credit for getting on with it Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  22. Just saw that she's not going to hold a referendum, like she's got a say in the matter anyway?[ATTACH]221902[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app

    The new one looks a bit sexy but definitely autotune. Tempted to buy a second 461 and store it in the loft! Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  24. Ok we'll go with the full costs not just tution fees! 1 billion is nothing compared to these numbers! Labours happy to spend 11 billion to get youngsters to vote for them..[ATTACH]221900[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
  25. That silly chart omits one or two things. A quick Google shows tuition fees would cost 11billion under labour for starters[ATTACH]221899[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G930F using Arbtalk mobile app
