the thing I like about this forum is no one is treated like an idiot so even those with little or no knowledge should feel confident enough to post a question although I find reading the posts gives enough info to have a go... a bit of banter is great though:)

finally got my 395 running on tickover , needs a wee bit more tuning though, the butchered 395 rides again well impressed with it. Thanks to all techs who post on here made me confident enough to have a go. Onto my auld 350 next .

I can get spares for my Yankee 395 nae bother, sometimes husky parts are cheaper and quicker to get from the states.

Dundee Council told me they deliver with their own tractor/forwarders, 9 tonne of mixed hardwood approx £184 15 miles fae the city £152 ish inside the city limits... no collections allowed due to H&S. Might be different if you are buying 100 tonnes though. PS they only deliver when they have time, waited 8 weeks for my last load

a wee tip I got was to use exhaust gum gum (the black stuff) instead of stove cement to seal joints, stays flexible longer to get everything fitted right and it disnae crack like the cement and its black to match the enamel .

When I went Offroad with Morpheus I had a warn 9.5ti front mounted and another warn 9.5xp demountable for the rear, used only synthetic 12mm, had in cab controls for both front and rear and remote controls when outside vehicle. Also had kill switches on bumpers in case of emergency. Winches were wired from battery using Anderson connectors and 13mm welder cable also had a rally type switch with key so they could be disabled when not in use. I made a set of jumper cables with Anderson connector too. I also changed rear 9.5xp to an Albright waterproof solenoid too. You would need an aluminium fairlead as roller fairlead will damage synthetic line. Be handy to have a few different size strops and shackles and a couple of snatch blocks if you are pulling heavy items, not forgetting a winch blanket and I kept some pieces of vinyl from an old cuttainsider to place on the ground if winching over rough areas.
