  1. In answer to this original question, a '58 plate double cab has a level load area of 1 cubic metre less the wheel arch intrusions. So therefore a level load would be slightly less than a cubic metre bag. A standard builder's bag (80cmx80cmx80cm) has a volume of 0.512 cubic metres though. As for 'tonne bags' Already on record in agreeance with Big J on the shiteness of Navaras :lol: Regards, Steve.
  2. A friend of Sir Brooke? Regards, Steve.
  3. It was felled and milled here - [ame] [/ame] Regards, Steve.
  4. Do like a bit of spalting, but I'm sure the dining table will come up ok with a bit of work....won't be a patch on my Holm Oak coffee table though.... Regards, Steve.
  5. Agreed, it has no fungal resistance so useless outdoors, but I have an 8' slab at 3" x 40" in the yard destined to be my dining table in a few years Regards, Steve.
  6. Are they yours Johny? Just seen that picture on Fleabay - new listing. Regards, Steve.
  7. 16l of 32 for the 200, just stuck this in and it seems fine - ISO 32 Hydraulic Fluid Oil 2X10 Lire Drum - German Hi Spec - Next Day Delivery | eBay EDIT >> This is the Baldwin equivalent for the filter - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=252670376630 Regards, Steve.
  8. He is indeed.....he picked this one out today :biggrin: Regards, Steve.
  9. Am I wrong to assume that all this does is legitimise what has been going on for some time? Regards, Steve.
  10. Sorry fellas, just me being slow today - too much on my mind. Realised the lack of carb adjust screws just before the replies came in. Thanks all. Hope it's better than my first generation 201T, still rue the day I sold the 020T:sneaky2: Regards, Steve.
  11. Evening all, Box says TC, Saw says TC but manual says TC-M. I thought the saws had the 'M' on too? As it's new I assume it must be, just curious? Regards, Steve.
  12. Today's breakages... 1 Bent bar on the 880 2 Top handle... was holding it at the time of the impact and still holding it after....(70' up an Ash and the hand's a bit sore....will upload video soon) 3 Will to live Regards, Steve.
  13. Walked past this one a hundred times in the past couple of years and never noticed but it was the groundy that spotted it today.... Regards, Steve.
  14. Aarrrgghhh.....don't dredge that one up again Regards, Steve.
  15. Evening all, Not up to speed on Timberwolf values as I'm not a fan. I said I would ask on behalf of a friend. What is the second hand value of a 2005 150 vtr track with 1800 hours on the clock? Masons don't have one at the moment and Fleabay is usually just scams. Thanks in advance. Regards, Steve.
  16. Yep, watch for screws coming loose. It's the harness causing the seal problem, try altering it a bit. Regards, Steve.
  17. To top it all - Ebay have now removed the negative feedback from his account.....Abolutely unbelievable. Regards, Steve.
  18. Yes, my bid was the winning bid 3 seconds before the auction ended and I have the confirmation email stating that I won. Yes, the seller has been a **** - why not set a reserve? My issue is with Ebay not doing anything about it as he has stated through Ebay messaging that he refuses to hand over the item as he feels it did not reach an amount he is happy with. Not only will Ebay not do anything about the seller reneging, but they will not give me his details for me to take legal action. My annoyance is that while Ebay has always been biased in favour of buyers, this is exactly the opposite. For them all that is lost is the final sale fee on £185. Regards, Steve.
  19. True, but they don't come up often in this configuration and are a £1000 new. Regards, Steve.
  20. Thanks for all your replies, my quest continues. Don't suppose anyone on here knows uk.mckin in Bridgwater who was selling this (Ebay have not and will not release his details) - Unfortunately all I get is this - Unable to access contact information Unfortunately, you are unable to access the contact information you requested. This can be due to a number of reasons: 1. To better protect the privacy of eBay users, you can only request contact information for eBay users who are involved in your recent, successful transactions. Examples are: •Sellers can request the contact information for the buyer in successfully closed transactions. •Buyers can request the contact information for a seller in successfully closed transactions. 2. The item number entered is not associated with the User ID that was entered. View the item you entered and make sure the item number and User ID you entered are correct. 3. The item number you entered is no longer available. Contact information is only available while the item is accessible on eBay. 4. The user you are requesting contact information for is an international user. Due to international laws, contact information for international users may be limited. If you would like to contact this user, you can send a message via our email forwarding system by clicking on their User ID. So the seller sent me this before the auction ended - Hi Steve Thanks for your message Collection and cash is fine. What is your bid and how much are you offering? Cheers All the best Then after I won it - Hi Steve Sorry but I am not going to sell the kit at £185 price it is worth twice as much. I have now removed the kit from Ebay. Thanks for your interest All the best Followed by - Hello Steve I do not wish to complete the transaction and have removed the item from Ebay. I have also contacted Ebay to this fact. Thanks for your interest All the best Then today I get this from Ebay - Your order was cancelled Hello, We want to let you know that uk.mckin cancelled your order and mentioned the reason as The buyer asked to cancel the order or there's an issue with the buyer's address. Keep in mind that an unpaid item can be recorded on your account and result in future restrictions to your account. You don't need to do anything else. Seller: uk.mckin ( 7 ) Item title Price P&P price Quantity Item total Drum Kit ( 322212049884 ) No payment has been made. £184.99 - 1 £184.99 Estimated delivery: Fri. Aug. 12 Subtotal £184.99 Total £184.99 What a joke. Regards, Steve.
  21. Evening/Morning all, Won an auction tonight on Ebay and the seller messaged me 10 mins later (through Ebay) stating that he was not prepared to sell me the item for the final price as it is worth double - which in fairness it is (welcome to auctions on Ebay). He then withdrew the item. I spoke to Ebay on the phone and the operative said that at his level he could only log a complaint, confirm that management would listen to my phone call and get back to me, they will not release the seller's details so that I can take this to court. They will block his account and not let him close it. I said he will just open up a new one with a floating or new ISP but operative reckons they can suss that..... So, I want this item - Ebay won't exactly send an enforcement crew round to Bridgwater to make him hand it over and won't give me his details. Is there anywhere I can go? I expect the 'take it on the chin and worry about more important things in life' comments, but I have the bit between my teeth on this one and want to get a result. Can anyone help? EDIT - Seller agreed cash on collection on a specified day (through Ebay messaging) so item has not been paid for - Ebay said this would make a difference - I said only in that they would refund me through Paypal - I still wouldn't get the item and they agreed. Regards, Steve.
  22. <p>Hi Rich, thanks for your message. To be honest we don't tend to do anything further east than Cardiff, it's mostly the other way but i'll bear you in mind. Regards, Steve.</p>

  23. <p>Hi Mike, super busy at the moment - did come through the five mile lane today but it was very late and still hadn't tipped. Will call in when we get a breather. Regards, Steve.</p>

  24. Half legible anonymous text messages are a fail. Nice speaking to you this morning Phil, look forward to meeting you Tuesday. Regards, Steve.
  25. Fully sated then Paul? Looks like a satisfying evening. Regards, Steve.
