  1. Trade directory on here. Then go to site.
  2. Drilling can be fun. Ensure you have plenty of drill bits nice and sharp and use cutting fluid. Decide if drilling or welding is the way, you don't want to weld on it and find its not working then try drilling as you will have to drill through welding. The chisel idea may work but doubt it as you have tried an impact driver.
  3. 088 with two bars. Bloody nothing stow it cutting
  4. Ah the defensless little old lady trick. I know it's not funny. Do any of these saws have a mark? Postcode or company mark?
  5. Yeah I done some digging, there were a debt collecting agency, but looking into the records there license expired in jan 2010 but there was no application for renewal. Sound dodgy to anyone else....
  6. Oh yeah forgot about tree roots, spent plenty of time replacing parts on th plough after hitting them.
  7. Today I received a small what I call a card from a company called hillside. Those who have had one know what they are. There is nothing in the card just a note on the back, with the date, a name, and starts with dear so and so. It then states. Please telephone me as soon as possible and quote the message noted below. Messages will be available for seven days from the date shown above. Please be assured we are not a sales company, nor is our phone number charged at premium rates. It then has a message number and a name of who it's from with a phone number. Be assured this company are a debt collecting fraud company that say they can consolidate your debts into one and you only pay one company. I was lucky to use my brain and do a search on them on web and I did not like what I was reading, for those that would like to do a search this is the details to search. Google, hillside, Clifton house, Clifton mills, brighouse, west Yorkshire. If you call them they have your details and they will harrass you ever after. Oh and they don't even put the right name on the card, they have my surename correct but that is it.
  8. Well I am disappointed in you all..... No one wanted it. I don't see why not.....
  9. It's nearly finished and no buyers!
  10. Put up 200 yards of post and rail today. Got me thinking about past fencing jobs and what was the worst type of fence to put up. I'm not talking about how hard it was, like going up a hill or on wet land but the type itself. Think the worst I done was stock fencing with rabbit netting, nice and easy to dig the trench as used a plough to dig an open furrow the fence went over it and back filled with digger. Was just a nightmare with the netting, gloves getting caught in all the time, hands constantly cut and hurting. What everyone else's? For thos who put fences up.
  11. IMO this is cheating And if they wanted to go to an island on holiday they should go back and sue the travel agent for not providing a boat big enough for them all to go. There are a few correct answers to this puzzle so in theory everyone who has made it so all people get on the island are correct.
  12. The problem with Jcb is they are heavy machines and not really ment for soft working. JC bamford made them mainly for the construction trade, they just relished agri could use them aswell. I have got stuck in one more than enough times. They are hydrostatic drive and I hate that but otherwise they are a great machine. Would go with a small one. The other thing to look at is how far would you need it to reach, look at what job you want it to do and work out how far it has to reach for that job. A big 6m reach might not do you so it will be a waste of money just for the extra reach.
  13. Depends if the one women can trust the other with her fella.
  14. Seen many manitou or sandersons working well. Jcb is pay what you get, they are good machines and easy to work with, could be pricey for what you want it for. I would look into manituo. Telescopic is definatly more of an advantage just for the extra reach, being able to reach over things or load trailers from one side rather than going round it saves a lot of time, plus they have the option of different attachments on the front, forks, bucket, post hole digger, four in one buckets. Even a pothole bashed can be adapted to fit on the ront. No comparison really, little forklift with no extra reach only being able to handle a ton at best, or a four wheel drive telescopic with unlimited potential.
  15. I can't see you getting a lot for two grand either ranger or hilux, I looked into getting one or other a short while ago and the only ones for that or less had problems that needed sorting before it could be driven.
  16. Take apart the solonoid section clean it and put it back together if you want to. It may take some fault finding with voltmeter to see if power I'd always as the solonoid parts. Best bet is to take to a dealer unless there is an oute electrician around your area. Most agri dealers should be able to help aswell. It's a hydraulic/electrical system so it shouldn't be too hard for someone with the right gear to check it over.
  17. Is amazed that on esimple spelling mistake can bring in 44 posts and over 2500 views. Is work really that slow? Have a sole people he must be hurting inside!
  18. Maybe for timber. Not sure about chip. I would see a problem with getting chip in it from th back as a long body.
  19. When the cutting wheel slows to a certain speed when it's feeding material a sensor on the cutting flywheel activates the solonoid on the valve in picture with wires on it. Sending the oil away from feeders back to tank or pump stopping the feed rollers allowing the cutting flywheel to speed up to the correct speed for cutting, when it speeds back up the sensor stitched off solonoid allowing oil back to the feed rollers allowing them to turn and start feeding material back through.
  20. So you hid your baseball caps and trainers. And the Burberry clothes got put away. It's never as bad as people think. It's not a trial just a chat to see who you are.
  21. Tipper out of action! Waiting for new clutch to come in. So it bacon and egg sarnies.
  22. As I see it a big black transit is not that hard to miss. So if it's sighted I would have thought it would be yours. Only problem I can see as with most stolen vehicles it's probably over a border before your alarm went off this morning. Hope it comes back anyway. Any way to ID it if it get re painted?
