What we need is a good global pandemic to keep the numbers down

Didn't work fantastic for me. I was kinda running out of space to hang the things, they were getting in the way. Bit of a pain to water, and the pots dried out fast. I think they would be a lot more successful if you had an auto irrigation system, which I'd like to get at some point. I'm not doing great with veg so far this year, been very busy with work, and very few seeds germinated so far. Still pretty cold at night here. I did finally get round to setting up a water source inside the polytunnel to make things easier. 1300l steel tank, fed from a nearby shed roof. And the tank is painted black, hopefully might act as a vague storage heater, getting warm during the day and cooling at night. Did atleast get some more fruit trees planted over winter. And had our first rhubarb crumble of the year a few weeks ago, then the new leaves were knocked back by more cold weather and snow!

I like solar panels. I've got one on a battery that came from the scrappy, been running electric poultry netting for over a year now, and I've never had to drag the battery up and charge it off the mains. The voltage started getting a bit low around december, and I was going to move the panel so it would get some sunlight, but never got round to it in the end and it pulled through. -

Och I dunno, it seems a bit of a trip hazzard to me? If you weren't careful, you could kick the bucket?

I always mean to come on here and ask, how did you get on with propane in the end Woodworks?
-
Yes that would be great

Does such a thing exist off the shelf? I'm after a tank for diesel to sit on a small machine. Would really have to be steel for strength as it would be exposed. Ideally 10l or 15l capacity. Any ideas?

Bright yellow paint! I got a van load of paint for free when a local organisation was having a clearout. Hundreds and hundreds of litres of all different types of paint, emulsion, oil based, gloss, eggshell, masonary, etc, in loads of different colours. Ended up with about 100l of bright yellow paint that I'm really struggling to find a use for.

Does anyone else remember this guy, I always though he was quite good

I was thinking, with the platform, the next mod must surely be a canopy to keep the rain off the operator?

Looks a great bit of kit

Yep all the times on modern wheel barrows/sack trucks etc I've had a flat tyre..........It's rarely actually a puncture, mainly the wheels/tyres/innertubes falling apart
-
I put puncture proof (solid foam type) tyres on a couple of barrows. Not as nice to push as pneumatic but better than picking up the barrow and finding a flat. I like the look of the heavy duty trailer tyres!

Police issue appeal for information after trees cut down and removed from woodland in the Highlands WWW.INVERNESS-COURIER.CO.UK Police are appealing for information following the reported theft of trees from woodland in the Highlands.
-
Around here 100% someone would remove that free of charge, maybe even buy you a drink for it. They may or may not tidy up the brash. Different areas have different economies though.

The ones in the grass look like docks. Don't go leaning on your wall, doesn't look too sturdy!

https://www.husqvarna.com/uk/products/battery/#batteryblower The 525iB is sold as "professional" rated, and it can be used with either the normal or the backpack batteries. Probably not much difference between them other than that.

Yes, and it's working for him

I've got both, a tracked honda power barrow and a muck truck max (wheeled). Obviously, the tracks are better in the woods or really rough ground. But wheels are better on grass/gravel/driveways etc. Faster and less mess. The muck truck has done a serious amount of work. Simple and reliable. It is currently part way through a project shifting about 30t of soil and a 20t load of stone. Ok a bigger 4wd dumper would be quicker for this particular job but the muck truck owes me nothing.

Is mains 240v in your country? How many husky batteries are you running, and what size are they? Is the fridge 12v/240v, or 12v only? Another option might be a caravan type system where you plug the vehicle into mains overnight, with a fixed exterior socket on the vehicle that runs the fridge/charges the 12v and gives you reliable 240v power on board overnight. You might prefer to have a row of slower husky chargers than 1 fast charger, so you don't have to swap the batteries at night?
