Dunno, probably a simplification of oil stocking. I may however be completely wrong. I speed read the thread looking for the info I was after. My brothers Palax has separate hydraulic tank and chai bar oil tank. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk

Allotments are rented in in areas known as rods. Find out what that is if needed. I'd start at £20 for 1 then do a sliding scale down to £15 for say 10 plots On a site. As long as you are not wading through waist high brambles and gooseberry bushes, broken glass and such.

It's a little tank for the saw chain. Similar principle to chainsaw. I've noticed several manufacturers reccommend 10w30 engine oil in fluid operating equipment. Pumps and motors etc, because it's got better additives and quality. I suppose the trade off is you lose power pushing thicker fluid at least when cold. OP I'd only use it for my conscience. Or in applications were you can't afford a leak such as a 360 on waterways. But really in an ideal world all hoses and failure components should be timed out with maintainence.

A primative plant like bracken. Weakens by crushing and bleeding. Getting weaker. But you have to keep doing it. I've seen it glyphosphated and only dies off where the tractor wheels ran. Same happens if you drive a tractor over it. A plastic mulch over a few seasons should be tough on it. In the quarry I've seen its roots go through many metres of sand heap.

The modern scourge on the road is no longer skittish horses with no road sense center of their own universe females, it's performance nuisance cyclists. They disregard the noise of a trail of traffic which they are causing to pollute the environment behind them. They also disregard courtesy or practise of the Highway Code. Travel in dangerous packs 2 or more abreast even down country lanes and don't narrow up for oncoming traffic. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk

I know jcb aka daffodil yellow is RAL1007

I see many mobility scooters, joggers and walking just hog the road if they think the pavement isn't good enough. But I don't know of the regs.

Will need a pump to work from a butt. The willow is a good idea but will foul up the nozzles. Commercial lines need flushing and checking, so the arteries of your lines would definitely clog.

I only know of the commercial drip line system where a nozzle with a hole which achieves X litres per hour. They are effective and easy. It's good to reposition the nozzle to help spread the root growth every few weeks. Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk

I prefer cabless as long as it's not raining or dusty. A cab makes you sweat on a small tractor. Then a cab with air con sends me drowsy. An air con building can put me to sleep in 40minutes.

Then Stefan finally pretended this thread never existed😂

That is true, you can't just give up. But there is a stop point. As you hopefully can tell by my posts. I can express myself, get my thoughts across. But just as I will never run 100m in under 10seconds my hand writing will never alter, believe me it's been pushed enough. Yet I can work out and fix most things. That is a really underdeveloped skill these days. I remember being given a class assignment to make a windmill that would lift up a small weight when blown upon. The whole class made tall towers with conventional vertical faced sails on four parallel legs. They all blew over. I made a tripod with a horizontally mounted rotor. It was stable and worked. But because I wasn't interested in writing a long essay of fibs about how I developed it. My marks were poor. Tonight I've bought home a Volvo fm truck operators manual to read, to better utilise its new to me Ishift transmission. I jumped in this truck this morning figured out how it goes in less than two minutes and took it a mile down the road to get the trailer repaired. I'm not trying to blow my own trumpet here, just illustrate a point. This is what makes me employable. I'd love to do a test and send kids in to school for career choice, telling their career advisors, I want to be a truck driver, a farmer, a fisherman. All jobs that keep us alive and essential to the country's success. A teacher can only really advise with experience on being a teacher. Or aspirations. No disrespect to them they do a job I don't want. But it stagnates development outside their expertise and experience. What subjects actually encourage these sort of life skills. Give a kid a problem these days the answer is "I dunno" followed by if sufficiently interested a Google search. The internet is just knowledge and I find it very useful. But it bypasses personal development.

It's a very sore experience for the stump.

Order!!! Or I'll hold you in contempt!!

If I was in that kind of relationship, I'd know it wasn't a good one! No real forgiveness. Done in jest fair enough but the heat of an argument. Sounds more like a competition than teamwork. Just saying not judging.

Only a dirty bird would find them dirty hands appealing! Wouldn't of been good if he'd gone to the wedding and giving the bride a congratulatory hug. That would if really ruined things!

This was my situation. My handwriting is terrible. Some teachers amounted it to failure. Rather than the positive strengths and skills I have. Dragged through school by mother and some teachers. Excelled on leaving. My brother was similar, but after seeing me happy and thriving, he didn't get pushed by my mother. Less stress for everyone. Brother thrived after leaving. But the kid you mention above had had 10+ years of being belittled and compare, now he says it probably so he can move on to more interesting topics. Upon leaving school I was given a posh Parker pen, I got the last laugh it never worked!

Even robo Stefan needs to break from work fully. He has a lady and needs to wash and eat.

I'm fortunate as both my wife and I have the utmost respect for marriage however we both hate the dragged out pomp and ceremony of the wedding day or any other look at me its my celebrity day. There are other things were we discuss and agree the other doesn't have to go. We do a lot together however. We aren't hypocrites as our wedding was done in under an hour. The problem is our culture has expectations of what you should and shouldn't do, when you do something against your will you don't give from yourself, you resent it instead and this can cause a build up of tension in relationships. In this case I think it should be like this. "Where's Stefan?" "You know Stefan, he can't let go of his stump grinder?" Then they should Laugh it off, instead of all the precious their special day stuff. You are consistent Stefan grinding 16 hour days, then dreaming about it another 6! Sent from my iPad using Arbtalk

I am constantly demoralised by what our society is churning out. I just missed out on practical subjects at school as they binned metalwork, woodwork for talk about about it and write about it subjects instead for GCSE's. I chose rural science as an option. Got called to the head of years office to be told it's for the poor performing students. Fast forward 25 years. To keep employment figures up kids can't leave the bias of the education system which brainwashes them, do well here then go to the next level etc until university or even more university. Then turn out overqualified and useless to anyone. Meanwhile they learn little stamina, pace, coordination skills. Left ever clueless what they want to do with life or a dreamy option that few realise. It's a social lifestyle choice The legal system has made it non desirable to employ kids because the attitude is your after a cheap slave. Meanwhile they dumb down like space explorers in hibernation transit to a distant outpost yoked up to the life sustaining/draining power of the fake reality provided by the http://www.com on electronic devices which they become dependant on for their wellbeing and security. Only last weekend I got a box of Lego out for my plugged in nephews of 11 &14. What they made was utterly rubbish. I was making better stuff that you could tell what it was aged 6!!! I realised both of these lads have spent hours watching others play minecraft on YouTube. It might be a good game I've never dared to try it. But it looks like duplo, a Lego stage I bypassed completely because, well it was limited. Lacked any stimulus sticking a block with a face on another chunky block. I wanted wheels and to fly. Conquer the seas and space. I did it all before I was 10. Also is this why went they play with toys they just smash em together repeatedly. Due to limited imagination development. Then ever skint in a world of spiralling costs of motoring and home ownership after being sponsored by mummy and daddy, hormones kick in they have never had to work for something to appreciate its value, they "deserve" to live with lover even though neither can provide for living costs. I think it all stinks. Taste work young acquire skills for life with enjoyment, self worth. I'm just glad I was born in August. Left school at 15 a month later and a whole year more of suffering would of been mine. Poor kids now get 2 years extra as standard. To few apprenticeships available. It's starting to look like them sci fi films from the 60s70s Solent green etc. Where people exist knowing and experiencing little in a managed society. If we were meant to be drone bees we would of been born in hives.
