  1. This is what my kodi looks like, you can put builds on it so it's pre populated with addons put in the right section so easy to use Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  2. Yup been using it for a few months now. I started with a cheapo £25 android box off eBay to see what it's all about and then upgraded to an Amazon Fire box. It brilliant you can literally watch anything you want old or new. I don't watch much live tv but there's all the sports channels there for free or a lot of people pay £5-£10 a month to subscribe to a service so don't get buffering Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  3. You'll probably find once you move up in size you'll not want to use the smaller machine when you see how much faster things can be done. Another thing to bear in mind that used equipment (if decent) usually doesn't depreciate much if at all so it's not a cost to buy something, just a tool that's got money tied up in it until you sell it. Well that's my theory anyway! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  4. Thanks Mick appreciate the search and pics. Looks just what I'm going to need Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  5. They don't look like they are. I've measured the inside of the wheel to the outside at 3 inches so the plywood wheel idea would get it down to 29 if can get some made that'll hold the weight. Can keep my smaller machine for gateways but was planning to just have the one machine
  6. Could work I'll have to take the wheels off and measure across to see if can get to gate size. Bit annoying as everything ive read on this model says its 29 inch Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  7. I've just bought a rayco rg20, good condition but got it home and compared to my smaller grinder and it's too wide?? All the specs I can find in the machine says its 29 inches but this one is 34 now I've measured it. Did they ever come like that? And how can I get it back to 29 inches so can get through smaller gates?!
  8. Nonsense surely. Everyone would be getting pulled up every 5 minutes Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  9. How do they work? I've got 3 sets of blades needing a sharpen, can take them to a place that's about 45 mins away but then have to leave them and go back. Got a leaflet from them about it but can't find a form to fill out and enclose so they know who's blades they are? Do you post them and the cost knocked off the bill as says free delivery both ways?

  10. Get yourself one of these, even comes with a rope! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Tiny echo!

    We do seem to lag behind. Found the new 2511 listed on the German echo site earlier already. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  12. Dont know if it's relevant but I've never used the decomp on mine and starts up easily Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  13. Don't forget to factor in the £9 fuel line that'll need replacing every few years. And the certain death from the fumes Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  14. Hah yeah. Must admit my eyes glaze over everytime I see someone blame things breaking on not using aspen Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  15. Yeah because it's made of unicorn tears whereas 2 stroke is pure acid that dissolves chainsaws from the inside out Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Yeah first thing I checked. Popped the carb off to check fuel lines hadn't come loose and weren't letting in air. Need to check carb settings really but can't! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Tiny echo!

    To be fair to it, it livened up after a couple of tanks but still only had around 10 through it. Currently on the shelf til I get time to look at it as running too fast on idle or cutting out when chainbreak is put on Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Yeah mines started running rough. Most likely needs a tune but can't until buy a tool to do it with [emoji35] Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Wouldn't it be the other way around, seeing as stihl invented that size chain everyone who follows is non standard! It's a shame that's the case though, although if the sugi chain is decent I'll probably go with that as find a stihl bar on a echo saw looks all wrong Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    Sounds good, did they make it so the stihl chain fits in the end? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

    No tax

    It's a crap system, tried to tax my car not long after it came on online but accidentally hit the sorn button so it was registered off road, couldn't undo it online so had to go to post office with documents to tax it the next day. Get pulled up a few months later for not being taxed as the sorn never got wiped. Had no evidence as no tax disc so had to pay again [emoji35] Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  24. When they get as low as that they can be a pain to get cutting perfectly, you can get these rotatech chains for £6 now. Not worth the hassle imo Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  25. Bin it! Look like you've had the £20 or whatever it cost out of it! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
