Reg for 2 minutes and 10 cents Id drill the handle on the club hammer and attach a land yard, size and weight of one of them dropping 80 ft brings chills to my spine, apart from that your on top form

looking for Arb trucks for sale?
Pat Ferrett replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
yesterday I was clearing 250 yards of over grown footpath in a 1984 suzuki jeep I gave £150 6 years ago using a fag hook and a pitch fork and Im not joking! the van was in the garage with problems that turned out to be a leaf in the tank and the long reach hedge cutter has been in the menders for 3 weeks now If I lost all my kit and needed to put food on the table Id borrow a wheel barrow and get some hand tools from a boot sale to keep the money coming in. In your position Tone Id take the rear seats out of your car and stencil your details on the glass and the paint over the top and make it look like a van, add a roof rack and tow bar and look out for a Wee chipper, most people will keep chip and if its blown into a pile or bulk bag they feel they are getting something for nothing, another advantage of this small setup is it reduces the need to employ labour. -

In ww2 the farm where my lock up is had 4 german pow's, the wheat got blown flat and was going to be hard to harvest but one of the Germans asked the owner for syths which were bought new in chichester and they cut the wheat and stacked it in stooks ( think thats what they are called) the syths are still hanging in one of the barns according to the owner.

He makes some great stuff as do you Drilled the holes out for this one with a brace and bit but most of my wood working tools were either given away or sold when I started tree work so Im having to purchase them all again, the bit was 3/4 inch so I reamed the hole out with a chisel, I have since bought an ajustable bit that goes upto 3 inch:001_cool:.

Its a part of the front door lock mechanism from my house, built in 1904, suffered bomb damage in ww2 and then gave up the ghost last week when the spring snapped, lucky for me the replacement cam and spring were still in the loft from what must have been spares left over from when the house was built Id like a pound for every time the cam has turned in the last 109 years.
