  1. internationally it will hopefully be a big hit, the UK is a tiny market compared to Africa, Australia, middle east, America and even Europe the Toyota land cruiser has been the vehicle of choice for many of them as it does what a defender does more reliably and more comfortably.... this really could be a world beater
  2. Its the same size gateway to a big field as it is to a small one that boy would shag a pig in eye glasses
  3. The Italian Job (original) This is England Withnail and I
  4. Theres a Guy in Winterbourne (not so far away) who runs Winterbourne willows might be worth a call https://www.winterbournewillows.com/

      I cant find an engine stop on there but know they do have them, give them a call maybe

  6. I did this through HCC, my tutor has always been happy to answer questions and guidance but you need to ask for it as theres no classroom time. I agree with the above, I used the notes but my tree books and the internet have been far more valuable. read the questions first then do reading, at first i read all the material and a lot of it is confusing / unrelated I can complete a module (5 in total) in about a month and i have young children and a full FULL time job.
  7. Level 2 is more basic than the course info / paper would suggest. The answers only have to be pretty simple and using a lot of diagrams / photos is great and encouraged. As above who are you doing the course with? Try and enjoy it and see it as a way of increasing your knowledge not just gaining a qualification, ask questions of colleagues, your local tree officer and nursery owners, tree people are usually helpful and friendly
  8. I had this exact problem it was the belts were a bits slack, tension your drive belts. There are three of them and they need to be pretty tight cheers
  9. Yes weld something to it, i welded a bit of 5mm plate to it and twisted it in a vice and it came out! I'm sure a slide hammer would work too
  10. Hi guys Sorry for the delay busy day! Looking to get one for £25 or else it's not worth it. If either of you guys would part with one for that give me a shout that would be great!! I'm in South Gloucestershire (Frampton cotterell) Cheers Joe 07834697366
  11. Hi All I've had the dreaded dropped valve on my 4-mix hedge trimmer. It's damaged one of the valve guides but they are not available as a spare part. Does anyone have a scrap engine I could use for spares? Or could anyone press a valve guide out and post to me? Cheers guys Joe
  12. It was of a 'dfsk' loadhopper, not the best quality but nowt a few hours on the mig welder can strengthen up. My plan is to widen it by adding 3x2 box along the sides then make a new tailgate + add high sides, Looks ok tho I think
  13. Cheers! I did it all myself, body/chassis was £200 Light board £35 Lights £150 Arches £51 The rest was nuts and bolts, angle iron etc.
