  1. Just referencing I. hispidus on this list with F. Swarze fungal stratergies book and I am getting that it is more of a sapwood exposed colonisation stratergy? what do you think Paul.
  2. I think No 5 could be Cinara cupressi vora = cypress aphid
  3. Them are the ones!
  4. I was asked this question by a colleuge who took the pics, he has just brought me a sample and they are some sort of felted scale, not disimilar to those that infest limes trees. Used to know what they were called but cant think at the mo.
  5. Does anyone know what these are? what insect is causing them or their significance? I dont think ive come across them before and my books are at home. Just seem to be on this acer, they burst when pressed but some are hard.

  11. What do you guys do to seal the exhaust port on a 200t to do a pressure/ vac test? Im sure there is easier ways than how I struggle? Matt
  12. What do you find is the best way to seal the exhaust port on the 200t when doing a pressure check? I remove one bolt and slide a piece of rubber in from the side and then just tighten the exhaust down with the one bolt, is this what you do? Just I always wonder if its a good enough seal.
  13. Ok I wouldn't disagree. Its good to improve your knowledge looking up these posts! Especially when you live in Oldham and there isn't as much variety.
  14. This ones had me scratchin my head for sure. However i like a challenge. I think its....... Syringa vulgaris lilac
  15. Some sort of pear? Pyrus?
  16. Yes id stick to the sea plane if I were you..... much more classy.
  17. EDIT: Good little 4x4 tipper for someone once the tipping gear has been amended.
  18. I couldn't see it wanting to tip much weight off anyway.
  19. Looks a nice tidy pick up tipper. My only question is where the ram is located on the tipper, it would put a lot of pressure on that area when tipping a full (overloaded) load Nissan Navara d22 Tipper 2.5Turbo Diesel,4x4, 75,000 miles,Red,livestock canopy | eBay

  21. Youre not thinking of getting rid of anyone are you?
  22. havnt we all done that? I know I have.
  23. I totally agree, nothing beats experience and common sense, however if you want to go technical and look at the rigorous testing and experimenting that has been done then this document provides you that information. You cant beat working with an experienced team to learn how to work safely.
  24. Here is all the information you will ever need on loading ropes, knots and pulleys during rigging operations. Its quite hard reading at times but some of it is really interesting stuff, the forces involved in rigging will surprise most of you... I think. Rigging evaluation hse rr668.pdf
