see "groundguards" Ground-Guards ground protection solutions astoundingly tough

limited capacity in terms of chain length i ud have thought, though (i presume) the chain drops into a chain locker having been pulled through the notched pullys. Because I intuitively think chain bulkier (and heavier to carry?) than wire, per kg of breaking strain. but plusses are always having "power out" faciity and a constant line pull, even when close in, with no possibility fanked wire rope on the drum.

kumos good/very good apparently, moving steadily upmarket.+Daughter fitted a set to her almost new Yaris, on the advice of the very decent local tyre fitter wot I supply with sticks/logs.

We bought the Octavia in Sept 2010, it came on Turenza tyres, I slid down Drumrammer backwards in the "big sno" we got that autumn. Switched to Continental winters and climbed the same steep brae with no issue, absolute chalk and cheese, with winter tyres one can drive on icy hard packed snow the same as driving in the wet on std tyres. Quite remarkable. I bough a set of steel rims for the winter Contis. I understand that once one gets to about 3 or 4mm of tread one might as well run the Contis done over the summer months as the tread blocks require sufficient depth to function correctly in snow.

I would have thought 200l only suitable for domestic hot water supply, definately cannot physically store enough energy for space heating requirments. The time I plumbed this house (with a 210l hot cyl btw) I noted that the top of the oil boiler driven heating coil was only half way up the tank, I reasoned the logic was the heat/hot water would rise, but that if for whatever reason the hot supply coming from the boiler/a boiler/another heat source ,like solar panels, was cooler, than the water already in the cylinder, it could not strip the heat away from the top of the cylinder. cheers marcus

Darwin was correct, again.

The absolute dogs dangley bits, for my "needs":lol: bang on for lifting capacity and reach all in a suitably nimble package.

WoW! Seriously impressive.

:lol: Same as drinking then, one does not know when one has enough, until one has definately had too much. :lol:

I seem to recall that Krpan only produced the one front mount compatabile winch. I believe the FEH5.5 t, presumably with the requisite gearing for the higher front PTO speed and rotation direction. m

cough cough And why exactly "no good off-road" jist asking like. Cos I think this is a bit of good kit.

I bough a Viking Pro mower early in the season, about £1,100.00 worth!! in pref to the much vaunted honda.(at the same sorta money) One of the crews "nabbed" it early days, and it stays firmly strapped to their truck.(unless cutting of course) They love it. M

I nearly bought one, before I fell in with the Steyr Puch, and all I remember about the test drive is "agricultural" and "crude". m

heating with Biomass, have I got the figures right?

Just downloaded the latest Northern Ireland figures Now 5.6p/kWh sigh and capped at an absolute Max of £2,000.00 per dwelling, regardless of circumstances. sigh -
keen mowers damage the bark, thereby allowing the pathogen an entry.

Rethink required, billet bundles are too heavy

Shocking slow to load the truck though, which is costing someone money. Though with artics it should be possible to drop an empty trailer and collect a full one. As always I continue to be astounded by the tall straight relatively slender stems that forests in North America can produce with ease. Apparently. -
Buyers from the far east the near east, India even, south america etc etc. Per the articles written by one of Cheffins Auctioneers for the Classic Tractor magazine. proper Jaw Dropping stuff.

Oh I do say sir! Nah Too Complicated I prefer the simpler rotary carosel / revolver cutter. That process appeared to be slow and tedious, but i suppose for 1.0m3 of sticks cut to 250mm long, productive enough. -
Makes a whole lotta sense!

But were we the British Population not perhaps used to an excess population(over the natural population) of Sparrows in Urban(and other areas) simply because their natural predators had been virtually eliminated by Man? And then use this distorted figure as our "baseline" And now that birds of Prey, incl cough cough Sparrow Hawks , are back, nature has corrected itself?

And an even better result, tonight while pond watching with the Mrs as the Sun went down, spotted some activity, so flicked in a couple of feed pellets, at least 12 fish, some Koi, some Sheebunkin, though hard to count. Do they prefer to feed after the Sun goes down btw? Strangly fascinating watching them. m

Billhook, thank you, a point I have attempted to make for many years, particularly in respect of some of the yummy mummies with sickly ashmetic children, who choose to blame "them farmers with their chemicals" whilst dowsing themselves, their children and houses in numerous chemicals, for myriad reasons, and running to the Dr. for antibiotics for every childhood sniffle. marcus

be glad, we once sniggered at an absolutly loverl family group traisping along somewhere. Father Mother & following like a flight of stairs Girl Girl Girl Girl Girl Girl Boy Just a tad obvious, and quite how the last few girls felt it was hard to know!

Population, and unrestrained breeding is the REAL problem. Monsanto and chemicals are merely a by-product of our essentially selfish human nature
