Just bought a compressor for workshop. But would like to run a air nailer instead of relying on my paslode for fencing. Its got a 50litre tank runs at 8bar and 412l/m. Will it man a coil nailer firing 2.1 x 50mm nails. And if so any recommendations would help. Iv been looking all night and getting no where Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

If its anything like round here at min even the good timber merchants carnt keep in with fencing gear. And they are all sending out very fresh tanalised gear. I know my usual supplier is picking un tanalised boards up at the docks every few days taking them to get dipped picking some dipped ones up and delivering straight out. Carnt be good for warping been so fresh Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Sorry mate mean steel palisade security fencing. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Hi all got my first palisade fencing job since setting up on my own six years ago not something i have chased particularly. I used to do alot for my former employer however i am a little hazy at the minute. Obviously the fixing of the palings is self explanatory its the process of putting the posts in. Do u just follow the lay of the land. In my head i remember my boss marking out were the posts go at 2.4m centres then digging the holes and then installing the posts to the desired height out of the ground. Any help or tips would be appreciated I'm shure it will all come bak to me when we start just like to reassure myself first Jim Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

About 1800 for muck truck i paid 800 second hand on ebay. Very little to go wrong on them. Abseloutly brilliant bit of kit would be lost without it now. Have just piked up my skip loading ramps today ready for a dig off next week Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Brilliant for leading whacking stone in too carnt rave about mine enough like it that much i keep looking for another one. So one can b getting tipped while one is loaded. Thats realy good value for grab wagon skips would have been double that. Never thought of doing it that way Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Oh best thing i did was stop smoking Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Iv had a hiatus hernia for about 6 years. Suffer from terrible acid reflux. Wake up with the most horrendous hiccups and acid which eventually makes me vomit. Things that trigger mine are indian food. Alcohol junk food eating to late laying down after eating. Basically all the good stuff lol iv taken 30 mg lamprazole for 5 years. At the minute i have stopped taking it and seem to be coping ok was ill for first time last week two days running. To be honest im a bit run down were lambing at the minute and extremly busy with lots of fencing so not realy looking after myself to well. The lamprazole is ok but doesnt completly stop it. So for me its trying to controll it myself through wat i eat and drink. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
