Motives and methods (taken from the Word to the wise...)
markieg31 replied to Gary Prentice's topic in Stolen Equipment
I agree that the punishment for theft is not a deterrent for the perpetrators! -
A kelly kettle will boil ten times faster than a regular kettle. I have a small kelly kettle ~(enough for two cups) small nugget of fire lighter then i just feed wood shavings (from the shave horse) in the top. boils in no time at all!! If you want a second load of water and the fire is already going, i would say that it will boil as quick as a jet boil!!!!!! :thumbup:

Thats the spirit :thumbup:

hooking the van up to a mains electric fencer go's a little way to deterring them. (not entirely sure it would work with the vehicle electrics)( in principle being sat on the tyres it should work- i'll hook it up on my car and you can test it )

Very smooth! looks brilliant.
-
Yes i agree that led is the way forward.

nothing a bit of oxyacetylene wouldnt sort. if they want it they will get it
-
WOWZER!!! they look blinding, and so does the price tag! but you get what you pay for me thinks!

I hear what you are saying their bob. I have some great spot lights to go on the front but need an A/ nudge bar to hang them off, otherwise they look a bit silly. Was thinking more of a work lamp, durable with a good spread of light to assist with night time tree and farm work. What Flashers and beacons are people using?? To add to the kaos!
-
I dont know about you but my time in arb has done some strange things to me. I have developed a fettish for work lights flashing beacons and hi-viz!! the more the better!! Anyhow, enough about my nocturnal activities, i am after some work lights for my truck. Obviously if i had loads of money i could buy some top of the range jobs but i am after the best value for money. What do you guys recommend or use??? Maybe some pictures of your trucks as well. Happy Days...:thumbup:

Meat, but the limited funds to start up has meant that it will take a while to get it off the ground. Just a bit disheartening pumping a lot of money in at the moment with no return- it will come thou (i hope). my pygmy goats on the other hand. they pay for them selves. A couple of them are due to kid any time now. Going back to the meat. I have had loads of prospective interest, none from minority groups. The meat has a similar amount of protein as beef with a fraction of the saturated fat!! To be honest i would sooner pump the money into my tree work. We have approx £4k worth of goats... that could have been better spent on a chipper!!! The missus doesnt agree :lol:
-
starting a goat farm. although i cant really call it a job as there doesnt seem to be any income at the moment, a lot of spending thou!!
-
check all the bulbs first and the contacts then the fuses. If you think its the towing side i would take the towing socket off, maybe its shorting out inside. If that doesnt come up with anything then you got to start searching around.
-
i used to use one on a regular basis. Amazing piece of kit, would definitely buy one if i had the funds available!
-
yeah, although it has only got one small patch of welding on the sill, i had heard that they are prone to rust. i think it has been wax oiled in the past which may of helped it thus far. will have a better idea of the situation when i get it home this eve.

O and it was £2100

i thought i had found the truck for me. sadly it is just out of my price range!! daihatsu midget 11 advertising van ad van "rare" | eBay
-
I have sold my trusty daihatsu fourtrak in the hope of buying a pick up. In an ideal world I want a club cab type affair but looking at some prices that aint gona happen. Doesn't seem to be much in my price bracket near me, somerset although I am willing to travel, with reasonable milage! They dont half hold there money!
