  1. eddie i am looking for a simular under carriage set up to yours as we got a lot of old mud flats but second hand, and simular size machine in the 5t to 8t range for the farm
  2. if it a flexe liner you have to be very carefull as they are easy to damage
  3. the crank seals went on a 023 stihl and a needs new piston, rear handle and carb rebuild, and its used by a game keeper so it has been abused as it can lie in the pickup weeks on end and has been droped off quads afew times but iam not shore what to get him, or justt fix it
  4. i totally agree and i am to do our own hedges but ivy and this on our farm but i also would like my own flail so i can do them our shelfs as they dont tapper the faces so they are full of holes at the bottom, and a solid mat at the top, but they also need stock to clean them out in the winter to remove excess ivy
  5. i have done some hedge laying but there are very few hedges that you could lay round our way sa they all been flailed for years
  6. he is also the patron of the British Horse Loggers
  7. I he also dose a lot for the horse loggers
  8. is it home made bob as i do like the idea
  9. we had a chimney fire in an open fire place with a 12" clay liner, and the flue is about 11m long and not the longest, and had the fire brigade out and they would even go out on to the roof due to H&S dose not allow them but they been on it before now to do a fire inspection and you can not fall of as you are in a valley and the chimney was in middle of it, so dad and went up damped it down with buckets of water,
  10. it not the cost but will you hit water let-alone enough water that wont dry up in a dry year, and don't skimp on the depth of the pipe under ground from your bore. ps eggsarascal is your man for pumps on here
  11. i can see were tony is coming from he has a full climbing and rigging kit, so it the small things that needs are posibbly another saw and a hedge cutter and strimmer, and some method of removing the biomass from the site be it a truck and a chipper later or his car and trailer but he in or near Londons lower emissions zone (lez) so the truck as to have tier 4 engine if GVM is more than 3.5tonne (2006 on) , and if it GVM is more than 1.205 tonnes but less than 3.5 tonnes the truck needs a tier 3 engine, (2002 no) so this limits in in choose of trucks big time. so this limits him slightly but he needs to put in some hard work but for this to he needs some method hauling brash off the site and his car sounds like it quite small. and therefore limit the size of jobs. but go for it tony but i would steer clear of loans and do weekend jobs and keep your job but i would say a lot would give you weekend work if you asked for it on here i know i would love to employ you for the odd job but there is a big bit of water in the way
  12. is there any chance of any pitchers of the skids, ps is it chains or blades
  13. bench mounted grinder but you are the same as me so i use the husky file guides as they are handier and nicer than the rest i have used so stick to the file guide angle and don't worry to much but file size is different but use 3/16 for .325 and 7/32 for the 272 but i know the fealing trying to match up chain and file sizes it not easy
  14. good point the roof rack would be handy for moving timber:biggrin:
  15. rich if you are going to be fixing saws all the time what about getting a bench mounted one
  16. and how would you get a collar on
  17. petrol though but still cool
  18. Desmond Wightman would be even handier
  19. brilliant Eddie now you just need to sort out a dealer in ni to save me having to take it over from scotland
  20. mdt i am suprised that you did not dung it first, but i need to sub soil mine this year and would love to plough it but a 4 faough reverable is a bit to big to use but will have to make do
  21. are you mad aberdeen to suffolk is aprox 500 miles and 8+ hours drive but it would be different it was 1000s tonnes but 25tonne i would hate to know the cost unless you can get a back load but it depend on the grade of the wood ps sowwork what is the timber acutly like size exctra
  22. Strathbogie saw services in huntly did but only in 205l drums and would only sell a full drum
  23. a nother point is if they are charging vat as you going to use it your self that it is 5% vat not the dreaded 20%
