I find you bend over backwards and do gymnastics with the truck for people, they hardly acknowledge what you have done for them, then another time just turn up and they tip you. Over the years I must have a grands worth of "I'll see you right at Christmas" OP let us know how this works out

For you seventh devil I reckon you need slow speed and precise control. When I sharpen hand tool blades at the nursery I go to the ancient wolf twin wheel grinder in the back of the shed that gas a side shield missing and twirl that wheel round with my finger whilst using the other hand to hold the blade. I reckon for such as yourself who sharpens often you could either mount a winding handle on the redundant stone end or set a drill up to run like a gear on the redundant wheel. Like the old bicycle dynamo. The narrower the drive wheel in the chuck the slower the speed. Less heat, less metal taken off. Buy an old grinder of ebay or car boot.

I think all felcos patents must of expired. Even reputable tool makers have copy's of them now. I have an ars small Japanese blade pruning saw that I have had for over 25 years. At the time it was Bridgedale( uk distributor?) ars and they where linked to felco somehow. A lot if the good stuff is now made inferior. In my teens I was a machine with a max tapener nursery tieing machine. They lasted a few seasons. Whereas now they are prone to misfire and failure in a season often. The plastics are weak and the metal is lighter. It's the made in China as cheaply as possible era. Buy it twice instead unfortunately of find an older pre loved tool.

I meant the front to back type though aspen, as used on ro ro and some tippers. The sort that get called "magic carpets" when it's windy they hover above the load. Your type is superior for security if load and keeping the weather out.

I've only ever seen them on front loaders and handlers. I don't think they will clear the ground enough, the crates will get smashed. You could maybe tip off the side end with a hinge method. Like the high tip buckets. Have a linkage mounted frame with the pivot at at the side instead the middle then the attached to that. forks. Then tip sideways. The higher you out the pivot the better the tip clearance but you will need more effort to tip. Personally I flip the crates with rear forks. It does abuse them a bit, I don't need to do it often.

As long as he can back up to the entry straight should be no issue. I stride 9 of my size 9 boots as a quick size check and have never failed to get it in yet. The only thing to add to what has been mentioned, if the truck has an easy sheet system it will be wider where the arms are.

Got this from online seller that I use. The email subject was "another boring email" Hello Apparently it's Cyber Monday today? To be honest, we're starting to lose track of all this... But to be on the safe-side we're giving our loyal customers 20% off for 24 hours*. Pop CYBERMONDAY into the promotional code box at check out to get your discount. End of quote It looks like the everyday it's so special is wearing off on retailers as well. If we want something we would get it anyway.

The retailers are all terrified of losing out by not going with the flow. It's all peer pressure americanisation, look at Halloween, barely mentioned when I was a lad, it used to be guy Fawkes and bonfires. Give it two years we will be celebrating 4th July Independence Day from Britain! Before anyone over the pond gets sensitive, it's not an anti America viewpoint. I'm just saying how daft the media and the public of not so Great Britain slot in to the sheep race and follow through. I started my working life at a garden center selling plants and helpful things to grow them with. Now it's like walking through a mini shopping center, restaurants. Toys, furniture, decor, pets, DIY leisure etc. All of us are taken for suckers. I just keep my head down and take note if the good genuine deals like chainsawbars do.

I worked in nz 11 yrs ago orchard fruit picking, money was a joke. About £4 an hour it cost us $100s to get permits,not to mention the intrusive medical they gave my wife. It was only for a temp visa but they are terrified you drop a child into nz citizenship. Which I understand from the way people abuse immigration but it's not a nice situation to go through. I recommend save up get out there get a feel for it. We did and right now I'm at a motel nr heathrow, we fly back for the fifth time tomorrow. It's the only place I really enjoy being in holiday. I personally find the roads no worse than country roads in Yorkshire. Plenty of idiots on them though. We have pretty much done all of the country. You have youth on your side. All it takes now is a woman to come into your life and you will miss out. Plan it get the money converted whilst the rates good if you can. We have got about 30% more this time than our lowest exchange rate.

Are they called brothers?

I would give anybody a try that you fancy. Keep records and update us. Even ebay because if it's fresh from someone's garden they should be good. Now is the time for many seeds before they dry out. The way I would go about it is get what's available this year then get what us around next year etc. things like beech are known to crop well once in so many years. Go with the flow.

Just for the record I had this problem with the app last night on an iphone4. I just swopped to safari on the iPad which worked fine.

Super tack is good. Never had any gumming or heat issues. I do use makro rapeseeds oil in my 13 and 15 inch bar machines with no issues. It comes in a metal container, not had any rodents chew it. Half the price. I use sugihara bars and my 346xp is ported.

You need to be in the cupboard under the sink for the industrial grade gear. Make sure you put it back and replace empties!

I've done the washing machine stove they work well. The thinking pose on the chair is a prime caption contest. " are we really supposed to eat that or are we playing."

I heated a crankcase on a 362xp in the oven to fit bearings. It worked a treat. I'll be sending any oven work to Spud now I'm banned from using the oven for business purposes. He will be able to do it when then Mrs goes out now he's full time technician from home. And mr idiot you have taught me something. The kit-chen. Still it's not a comfort zone for me, it's one of those zones where you always need to check you back and leave no evidence that you was there.

These things keep going and going. Until they are laid on their bellies, then it's like a bodyboard they sit there wheels spinning whatever you do. We probably only get set in the mud twice a season with one of these with a damcon tree lifter on the back. Years of practice have taught us what we can get away with. An implement like the one in the picture just creates more reason to not grip once it's bellied.

Lifting the wire over is easy you never lift the full 80kg at once. Just start rolling it out ten meters then bring the roll back to create a slack hump. This will give you some play for lifting over. It will be like lifting a newspaper. But at the end you will of lifted all them Kgs of wire over.

Locally is your answer not to be sarcastic. I'm not familiar with your end of the country. Type in mature trees £ in google. Barchams J.A. Jones&son Boningale nurseries Green mile trees Frank p Matthews Wyevale nurseries(not garden centers) Are just some of the big size tree growers I'm aware of at your side of the country off the top of my head.

To open a can of worms. People get besotted with dogs and some actually love them more than any other human. Yet most of mankind eat other things. ( I'm actually veggie but don't go round pushing my viewpoints on other people) beef, cute little lambs, chicken, pig etc. but because others eat these animals as standard behaviour around us it's viewed as ok. In Cambodia and Vietnam etc they eat dog and I'm as ok with that as eating cow or any other living creature. As I don't eat meat. I expect the dog lovers to scorn reading this. I was fond of my parents border collie that died last year. He was a fantastic friend and intelligent companionship to have. I also kept pet goats as a teenager they too were intelligent with personalities though not the same kind as a dogs. But for some reason I suggest many people have a narrow minded bias that elevates dogs. To illustrate rats are trained in Africa to find land mines and probably get blown to smithereens now and again. How many people had any emotional response to that. Probably none. Yet when I say I saw dogs as flat as a pancake run over in Trinidad when I was there 5 years ago, the emotion will be increased. Yes it's sad to loose a working dog for its family and handler. But that is life and death. I met a man very high up in the police force a few years back that meticulously bred German shepherd dogs. He particularly worked to strengthen the back leg weakness. I asked him,do the police get dogs off him? His reply was No they don't treat them right he wouldn't let them have them. The reason I've pointed all this out is because I was quite disappointed in the members on here having the small world view on dogs in the thread earlier in the week. Particularly how Gnome was treated. Looked at objectively he didn't have any evil in the comments. I hate Brussel sprouts but I don't go expressing that by hacking other peoples veg. We all can have our own views. Respect the free will and opinions of others and move on. Or we can be small minded and contribute to the anamosity of the world like the few fools last week in Paris enforcing their beliefs and in their eyes righteous death penalties on others. I say let's all get on and respect each other's views and be less "dogmatic"

If you forget to do pack up. A packet of biscuits is a fine substitute. You won't even miss anything. Unless the wife does the "you left your lunch!"....., "What did you have?"..... "that's not good for you! It's not a balanced diet. Your missing out on this....that.....!"

Good old common sense in operation, beats regs any day.

Do you mean wire on the livestock side so they can't push it off the posts? To OP, we have knocked strainers in first hung net and tensioned fully then knocked posts in afterwards. But we do use top quality professional equipment. We don't tension with fencing pliers and knock in with a man killer. We have a post cap on our tractor mounted knocker. I would space out all posts in their final position after tensioning the net and knock one in fully and staple up every so many first to stop the line drifting out, also it will help sort the height out.

Swop books for logs Jon, she gets less ash. You can sell them on for profit if you swop weight for weight or equal volume.

MeeOww!
