    3phase

    So as you all know I have a 3 phase thicknesser and no 3 phase I now have some cash to buy a 3 phase generator or converter,so I would rather give a fellow arbtalker my cash than anybody from flea bay so do any of you have a 3 phase generator or converter you don’t need any more Thanks Mark
  17. Thanks everyone I will be ordering one in the morning now I know where to get one from
  18. Hi guys , I have been using the hook on my felling bar aa a cant hook but it’s not ideal ,so today I was looking round to buy a proper cant hook but struggling to find one it looks like Sthil have discontinued them so any ideas where I can buy one . Thanks Mark
  19. Hi it’s quite forgiving if it’s anything like the iso ,my first job was spray painter I did a 3 yr apprenticeship spraying Rolls Royce and other prestige cars and we mostly used iso 2pack that’s why my lungs are F###ed ,so if it goes on the same just crack on not too thick on the first coat it should look like dust and then the second coat a bit thicker so it looks wet but be careful not to get runs ,if in dought just build it up with as many thin ish coats as your paint will allow ,just out of interest what colour are you painting as black is the hardest it shows all the sanding marks a 360/400 wet and dry used wet to sand the primer degrease with thinners or panel wipe .good luck and do post a photo
  20. Hi mate if you are unsure with the spray cans just dust it on lightly and as many coats as the paint allows but if you are quite good with a spray can lay it on a bit thicker but be warned if it’s too thick it will run so it’s up to how good you are at spraying
  21. Hi Les ,yeah he’s ace but very stubborn,but he slept in his bed no mess on the floor this morning but aI think everything we own will end up covered in white dog hair my hoody already looks like a dog bed and I have only had it on half an hour,sorry for the derail
  22. Hi I have just been looking at Barclays and NatWest as we have accounts with both and they both had an option to open an account just to manage the loan through if you only have a personal account sorry can’t put up a link as I don’t know how to,give me a chainsaw or sander over a computer every time,we will be applying in the morning as it’s the first night with our new rescue dog who is a British Bulldog and all confused and knackered but will not quite settle
