  1. Much quicker today, sub 2 seconds for both (using firefox dev tools and omniture) Cheers, Danny
  2. Both sites you have linked to are failing to load. Cheers, Danny
  3. Few on here and myself use Hot Igloo Webdesign LTDHome - Landing Page - Hot Igloo Webdesign LTD Terry is the man there who is in charge, does a good job and very reasonably price for the quality and speed of work. Cheers, Danny
  4. When i was looking for a pick-up, i was all set for a Defender...then I spoke to my friend who is the manager of a sand quarry. The only truck he will buy for the company is a Hilux, as they cost so much less over the life of ownership than anything else they have had. I'd say the hilux drives better on roads than the L200 and is a million times better on road than a defender. I know a couple of people with Navaras and they have had a number of problems and also said the paint is ridiculously thin.
  5. Highly recommend Hot Igloo Webdesign LTDHome - Landing Page - Hot Igloo Webdesign LTD Terry is the man there, he's helped myself (with non-arb sites) and there are a few others on here have used his services and are very happy. Cheers, Dan
  6. intradesting... Sweep's Library - Firewood BTU Comparison Charts
  7. Borrowed a moisture meter from my dad and a little confused as to the results. take a bit of sycamore 4"x4" out the store, end grains 26-28%, side 21-22%. take an axe and split down the middle 32% what's the general reading most people go for? done it for a few bits and it's all about the same. it's only for firewood, so not loosing sleep over it Danny
  8. put your details in here, call the place closest to you. Makita UK Dan
  9. I bought a bundle on eBay, pile of ropes, carabineers, harness, boots, helmet and trousers. I threw the harness and helmet straight in the bin. Use the rope for general stuff, like tying up something in the back of the truck to save it battering the sides of the truck Carabineers for non-load related use - effective garage hooks And wear the trousers and boots. Don’t assume people don’t know what they are buying Dan
  10. used it for a couple of hours last night, managed to get through almost all of the big stuff i had sitting about. huge difference between this and any other saw I have used, never bogged down once, even with the full bar in a huge chunk of dry beech. Dan
  11. had been looking for a bigger saw to get through some larger pieces i've got laying about and something that I could mill with at some point... picked this up yesterday, BEAST got a 24" bar on it just now, read the manual and this will take a 60" bar!?!
  12. if anyone is interested.... it's also on eBay. chainsaw | eBay
