  3. This reminds me of something, soil liquefaction. Usually as a result of earthquakes! Have a look on another example I just saw on YouTube " extreme soil liquifaction" crazy stuff but the log thumb on the digger looks nice. Sorry to be no help, looks like your going to have to explore. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  4. It was the blackcurrant now I look at the label, redcurrants are up the other end! No probs VI nice to know that anyway. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

  7. I went to them, they do offer a home/work visit but he said it was quicker to go to there Ind Unit Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  8. Well your doing better than me and I have been going 16yrs ... Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  9. Powers Sharp haven't received a good review on hear although I have one on a saw for logs. Don't let it touch the ground, nails or stock fences as it rips the cutters off! Easy to sharpen when your doing a load of logs though. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  10. For anyone near East Sussex happy to recommend Seaford Windscreens excellent job, cup of tea was nice too ☺ Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  11. I have been watching your storms on lightningstrikes. org look pretty bad also some around Birmingham and in Scotland Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app
  12. I use a junior hacksaw, you only nly need to trim about 5mm off the plastic outer casing, basically up to the label , have had a couple of units label in same place! One in pic is 2011, lasted about 4 yes, internal gears strip in the end but at approx £74, I consider them consumable. Sent from my SM-J320FN using Arbtalk mobile app

  14. I use an Expandit for small hedges and topping a Florabest long reach, part of an electric split shaft system for the big stuff. All will fit the Stihl engines and the carbon fibre extension shaft. I trim a bit off the article outer casing on the Expandit to make it locate in the Stihl connecting sleeve. On the Florabest I just remove the Stihl connecting sleeve and use the Florabest one complete If I could work out how to post pictures on my new phone it would help, phone and PC currently refusing to talk to each other. .

  15. Oh and it also fits my Lidl sharpener, don't know about Granberg
  16. I have an Oregon on the bar sharpener, came with a 404 disc
  17. I had 2 trucks on any driver policy, when I queried the renewal price as it seemed a bit steep as not claimed I was told any driver is calculated on a 17yr old with a drink driving conviction! Changed it to any driver over 25 which cut the premium in half. That's why you see a lot of the job adds saying over 25.
  18. I use a Stihl KM56 with an Expandit attachment about £290 all in
  19. Luckily this is on a static site. Starter Motor failed, well it is 20yrs old! Took it to a local place in Crawley who sent it to be refurbed in Billingshurst, don't know where. Did an amazing job was covered in black paint and a lot of rust before now nice and shiny 😃
  20. I used to use Timbrel but I just checked the Pitch care website and have found like a lot it has been withdrawn by HSE! They are reccomend in SBK which you can get in B&Q (other stores are available) I have only used SBK on Ivy with good effect. More research is needed!
  21. You can tell I am just a poor gardener, my latest is a KM56 with a Florabest (Lidl) long reach split shaft off the Electric hedge trimmer £69 Inc electric engine instead of £255 for just the Stihl attachment. You do need to use the Florabest connector though.
  22. Please should read please lol
  23. Yes basically, I too had a Ryobi, engine died so bought a KM56, strimmer, please ok if you have a hedge trimmer you need to trim 1/4 - 1/2 inch off the tube tco make it locate deep in the KM connector. As the Ryobi attachments wore out I replaced them with genuine Stihl but at least got some use out of them.
  24. Just wanted to say a big thank you Paul for reporting on the Show on behalf of us who could not make it. Cheers
