  1. I have just bought this for my dad. Not used it yet. But impressed with spec and price/value. Its cheaper from same seller through amazon! http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00BYY5SPS/ref=pe_385721_37038051_TE_3p_dp_1 Actual product is mospare, made in south africa. I imagine their grass is tough and stalky.
  2. Take a holiday from your regular job, you know you want to.
  3. And they didn't beat the price:laugh1:
  4. Blasted horses chavel up and ruin post and rail in my experience. I second the electric if its viable. Have you thought about either metal tree guards or wooden vase types. Will cost more, won't waste any grazing land. Last but most importantly will give the neighbour who is paying a classic parkland view.
  5. Anyone use a flame. Mind the brows and lashes though. It should rub off if it doesn't drop off.
  6. I have had same sypmtom on an escort diesel. Find the fuel solenoid on the fuel injection pump. Put a finger on it. Get someone to turn the ignition on and off. i.e oil and battery light position. Dont engage start as the viberations will not be felt. You should feel a magneticlly activated ping in the unit if it works. Have a look at them on ebay they are generally round cylinders with a wire coming out the top. A get you home fix is take it out. Remove the plunger and spring. It will start, but only stop buy stalling in a high gear with footbrake firmly applied.
  7. Definitely doable 2 men and machine in a day. But charge a day and a half for 2 men. That includes staking. If site is quite sheltered and plants are firmly rooted. i.e dont rock in their rootballs or pots, you can get away without staking. Assuming pots around 18 inch diameter. P.S on your invoice put Yew not ewe trees. Assume its the iphone being clever again.
  8. Predictive spelling, bane of my life at the moment. Antony waterii:blushing:
  9. Yes and its good stuff. I don't think it suffers the bio oil mess your saw up like some do:thumbup1:
  10. It will be good to see it from the apprentice side of things, don't worry about your spelling we can understand it. Keep it coming. How many weetabix? I've had 4 this morning, I vary it with either sultanas, raisins or a spoon full of treacle to make it a bit more interesting. This morning it with sultanas.
  11. Sounds a fair deal to me. Look forward to your review. I hope they are good, its an area that needs equipment, i.e not domestic and not heavy industrial.
  12. Prunus padus could be your answer perhaps Antony watering cultivar.
  13. Open another web page find the post. Then click the earth icon with the chain link. Copy the web page address from the top of your browser into the box. Tip I always clear the box before pasting. To slow! You worked it out.
  14. I've been there once proper good old fashioned repair outfit if it's the one I'm thinking of. No fancy smooth surfaces and shiny image. A proper mans repair shed, I actually got 5 ltrs of husky 2 stroke off him, it was on stock. Only fancy cartons locally in weeny sizes round here. Sorry for derail. Does anyone use rapeseed oil for chainsaw milling? I feel the bigger bar would need more cling and thicker lube to make the journey round a larger bar?
  15. Ha, ah. It was blocked by a web filter I've been trying. Must be under violence due to thorns or social network site. First time its interfered with arbtalk. It has cut a load of ads out:001_smile: But not on here. Sorry chaps my bad.
  16. It was on here a while back. Sorry
  17. Aye only thing that spoils that picture is hi vis vest:thumbdown: The modern ways have to be in.
  18. Eh? I still cannot see a picture. Oh well seems sorted.
  19. Pictures?
  20. I used an eliet a few years back on hire, for 20 mins sent it back. They should be better now. But it was slow and each twig had to be forced in by hand, viberations not good. The problem is proper big kit does the throughput with less effort and much quicker. You certainly need to do the research or try different ones on hire.
  21. Ah much better on the big screen as well. The plumage is maran. Just the neck? maybe backbreeding or a different type. NOT sent from my iphone!
  22. Nah! Pure skill. Hit the flood held back and followed the crest of the wave. A chap in a Mercedes vito van had tried before us, because when we got round the corner he had boated 5 mtrs in to the field. I also did a muppet a couple of months back and belied out in a grass field. I arrived upon a spring!! Pics to follow. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  23. Tried to zoom in on your cockerel it looks like a dorking but I don't think it is. I have kept(my dad has them now) for about 20 years. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  24. Exactly! No not really I live in the rural area 10 miles away. I would seriously suffer depression if I lived in the concrete jungles. I like to make noise by the nature of the activities I do and breathe fresh air. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  25. Rotated for you. And David I thought I was back on the intresting biomechanics thread!!
