Is there an environmental option.... green concrete? ? I guess I could have a quiet chat (blood is biodegradable right?)with the selfish tw@s that have moved into the land at the end of the lane and established a fookin animal sanctuary (planning applications to follow no doubt!)...90% increase in traffic?
-
Well I guess that would kill that option then ?
-
Thx Kev, the lane is actually owned by my neighbour, he asked if I had any idea what it will cost to tarmac. The issue is it's the only access to 3 x properties, and the general consensus was that tarmac would be pretty much immediate light use after rolling. Bob....The sleepers look good, however as the lane is already cut and stoned I'm (initially) thinking tarmac would be the easier option. Any ideas on costs for concrete over tarmac.. that will be the driver i guess? I had it graded with a 14T swinger earlier in the year but predictably this weather is starting to take effect and potholes appearing. Neighbour has brought a box grader which helps, BUT i think its just putting of the inevitable fact that its gonna need sorting properly soon. Cheers Craig

More the former Khriss, not a great deal of heavy agricultural use but plenty light stuff and horse lorries (not mine!!)

Can anyone give me a rough estimate on cost to tarmac farm track. Its 450m long and approx 3m wide. It's in pretty good condition and probably won't need much in the way of preparation beyond creating a bit more of camber. Appreciate any advice. Many thanks Craig

Great stove, no need to alter the design when it already does the job well I guess[emoji106]

Let’s hope you follow your own advice..... cos your libtard comments and responses are boring the [emoji90] out of me[emoji6][emoji3]

RIP Felix.

Fully agree. We need to hit them hard where it hurts. It's obscene that we are propping up a regime that has such a shocking human rights record, is polluting the environmental on an unbelievable scale, AND is clearly lining it's self up to be the only world superpower (God help us!!). The West is walking into the trap....disguised as globalism

Hi Paul, very lucky the place we are in has a number of old fruit trees and also many planted 20yrs ago, we are finding interesting stuff everywhere we look. Apple, pear, wild cherry, fig, crab apple, gooseberry. Yes the walnut has a distinct smell when the leaves are rubbed so I guess that’s what it is. The wild cherry are hanging with fruit this year! Happy days[emoji106] Craig
-
Thanks for that, no idea what the walnut looks like unless it’s on a walnut whip[emoji106]
-
Ladies/Gents, any idea what tree/fruit this is? Thx Craig

They will deal with briars and have puncture proof tyres. They will flatter brambles and gorse.....140Kgs!

Got one of these....

And no more blue screen of death[emoji106]

Yeah agree Stubby they do wear down (I think they may have improved the plastic in last few years), although I'm guessing the OP ain't gonna be sharpening on a daily basis. However they give a reasonable good sharpen for a newbie?
-
Try the husqvarna rollers, they will help u get the angle right....
-
Thx Bob, that's some serious gates! Im hoping not to need to go to such extremes and just automate the existing gates?
-
Thx Dumper, I guess the gates would only need to average <10 cycles a day. I would prefer to use standard 5 bar wooden farm gates, either 2 x 7ft or a single 14'. Who/what is your recommended reliable manufacturer or system? The intercom and a PIN keyboard would be a bonus. The mag-lock is not a dealbreaker, I'm trying to stop couriers more than determined thieves, I got other options for the latter?. Are these systems a DIY project?
-
I'm looking to install remote operated electric gate/gates on my drive. Need either 1 x 10ft wooden gate or 2 x 5ft. I want to be able to unlock and ope/close remotely. Mains fed isn't really an option. Any experience of mechanisms, makes and approx price to buy/install appreciated Thx in advance Craig
