What about experimenting with debris netting tied on. It will allow some air through but keep the worst of rain out
-
What about keeping an eye out for a knackered pressure washer/generator/etc with a Honda engine. Still a bit of a gamble. But the Honda gx engines are good!

Got the aldi phone. Camera is rubbish and there's no predictive text, but apart from that seems a decent enough basic phone that should stand up to abuse!

Tipper trailer charging and work lights on trailers
scbk replied to william127's topic in Arb-Trucks
I wired up work lights, reverse lights, and interior lights on a box trailer I used to have. Just did it through a grey caravan socket. -

There's one coming up in Aldi tomorrow by chance, don't know if it's any good, but I will probably be getting one! https://www.aldi.co.uk/rugged-mobile-phone/p/069930022893700

Not today, but a couple of weeks back, using the new (to me) tracked barrow to cart a couple ton of beech down a steep hill Just the ticket

240v impact wrench in Lidl next Monday > Parkside Impact Wrench - Monday, 28.03. - Lidl UK £29.99, should be ok for occasional use

Harry Potter train aint going anywhere at the minute! West Coast Railway Company prohibited from main line running

She's a clever lass. It's a windy day and if she got out at the same time all the crisp packets/receipts/papers from the cab would be strewn across the field! Wish my other half could learn this!

It's a good video, but the website address at the start and end is wrong
-
I would say get an air powered one

I feel sorry for him

Oh and I did eventually get the vinyl cutter working again!

Hey Jim, good to hear from you. I'm not on facebook but I seen some of the photos posted at the time. What's the place looking like now? We will have to come through for a weekend in the spring!

Not unless you're after a drink!

2nd battery would be an optional extra (or easy to fit yourself!). Think they came as standard on mk7 rear wheel drive

Check the wires to the alternator, I had mine go at the multiplug to it

Start small, think of it as a campfire. Keep all the sticks running the same way It's perfectly possible to fell any tree and burn it the same day, even in the rain, but that's a bit harder! You'll need some dry wood, you might be able to find dead branches off the ground that are dry. A wee bit of coal can help too Petrol is no use Red diesel/used oil, old tyres can be useful! Conifer is usually easy. I've lit fires before using only a lighter and twigs off the ground - no brought in materials! Cannae beat a fire

Scrap that, this came in the post today! Thanks Rye Oil!

I got a set of the Oregon black braces, a few months ago, and stuffed them away in a cupboard until I broke out the new trousers. They were nice and comfy, but went to use them today for the first time and one side snapped within 2 hours :thumbdown:

Thanks, I will probably buy more 10w40 semi synthetic, think it was only about a tenner per 5l can at the motor factors
-
Just wondering, Honda always recommend using 10w30 oil but it's pretty hard to track down! In the past I have used 10w40, 5w30, straight 30, etc. What is the most suitable oil? The various engines are usually used in temps from just below zero to 20degrees C
