    New Saw

    An stihl 261 no later then 08/09 after that not that good or take a look at the new 261 and may be so with the heated handle version:thumbup:
  5. £2'500 that's ok. I Would't go putting more then 6" through it. No need to really. If you need parts Arbour Eater uk should help you. Hope it helps a little.
  6. Pezzalato. If it's your first chipper and did,t pay more then £3'000 think you 'll be ok. Expect little niggles. We all started somewhere and your first chipper is a learning curve:thumbup1:
  7. Someone like to tell me why my post has been deleted:confused1: as I did't say anything out of order!!!
  8. Still using the old ART rope grab? How long you had that one and was it from new and the twist version? Have had mine bout 5 or 6 years now, I keep looking at the new ones but there's nowt wrong with my old one,it's like an old mate to me now. Nice clean set up by the way:thumbup:
  9. We have room in our tent buddy if you stuck and as long as you make breakfast that's fine:thumbup1:
  10. Last time there were lots of rubber mating even if whether is good so you should be fine:thumbup:
  11. You don't want to be travelling up everyday.just think positive thoughts that the sun will shine. You will regret not camping and missing out on all the fun. Eggs,Paul and slackmegridle will miss you not being there.
  12. Join the gang on the camp site. All the ARB LADS & LASESS together and more the merrier. Are we all still meeting up for the pig roast at Jon's ( mendiplogs ) tent?
  13. I knew were the crack should be!!! But when you said by arrow that would be a vey bad place for it to fracture. ( got confused by wording )
  14. Welcome back nev, can we have more info to were you've been and what you've been up to? Then we can join in on the chat. Cheers
  15. Silly me.thought there were two:blushing:
  16. No it's not by the arrow it's by the rivet at the top hole:001_rolleyes:
  17. Just get the expert series covering lawns. As good as anything else and I bet you can pick one up at any decent charity shop for a couple of dollars. Honda, good mower, ride on you do need mulcher but sometimes you will need to collect the cuttings just depends what the clients requirements are:001_rolleyes:
  18. Sorry that should have said"pricing structure right":thumbup:
  19. Was,t being underminding to you fella just when you say landscaping that covers a very wide range of skills and best learned over many years apart from a collage course in brick laying which you can learn the basics on a short course at an evening class. As for doing a course on grass cutting I Would't bother even if there was one. Just get your self a couple of good mowers and the right equipment grass cutting is an art but not rocket science. But I would get a good book on grass maintenance and diseases so you sound like you know what you talking about even if you don,t. After a while you'll soon pick it up. And make sure you get your pricking structure right. There are plenty of good lads and lasses on here who can help.
  20. Landscaping? Laying slabs, block paving,brick walls,water features,etc ect. Need more then a collage course for that, been doing it 33yrs and still learning bits and pieces. Do you mean grounds maintenance when you say you want to move into landscaping
  21. Ford Ranger Then. All that's left is to choose your colour,take a pic when you get it. Happy motoring:thumbup:
  22. Spot on on. I used a 5" one for years and still have it and same engine. Made me good money and will never let it go.
  23. If you not quite sure bout the load weight when cornering etc, just add another bracket in the centre and make it less flexie:thumbup:
  24. Yep will be camping for the two days and going to the the show all three. Ordered tickets for camping same time as main tickets end of May. There are only a certain number of pitches so they say:confused1:
