  1. My welding is just as good at home as it used to be when I was at work
  2. Would it work as well on fresh stumps? That one looked well rotted and came out of the auger on it's own easily.
  3. That only works for water cooled engines.
  4. If you can't switch off it's probably faulty wiring, just flick the choke back on Yes I know, I'm kidding.
  5. I just want to see a picture of 82 foot sycamore

    Tiny echo!

    What country are you in to find dry moss ?
  7. I can see the machines on the trailer, is Stumpy behind them ?
  8. Why would you put woodchip in the greenhouse ?
  9. If you put a location in your profile, it doesn't need to be your address just a city or even a county then someone may be able to help with something a bit more specific. Our local supplier Spire bearings is really helpful and will get most things in a couple of days. He did pull me up when I asked for metal caged bearings for one job saying that the fibre cage option they supply actually runs cooler and holds lubricant better than a metal caged alternative and the rollers do the work not the cage.
  10. Does anything grow slower than Box ?
  11. I would not consider reusing a piston that's damaged. They are cheap enough to replace.
  12. We call them binnies at our house because they were always there when you move the bin on the yard
  13. Use a calculator site to find your needs then go 20% bigger if you want to allow for the open staircase. The 8.5 should be well up to the job on paper but the 5 would be borderline. Stove position can be a consideration as well.
  14. I used to shunt trailers into a loading bay with a knackered Ford D800. Anything over 36ft was a doddle but 28s were awkward. I also worked in a foundry where the charge was reversed in on a trailer and lifted with a crane over the vessel. The trailer was a turntable steer and it was reversed in with a rear steer fork truck and that took some getting your head round.
  15. Roshambo ! [ame] [/ame]
  16. I watched a couple of young lads taking some Leylandii down a few months back. They were next to a brook not overhanging a railway platform and one climbed and reduced them while the other fed into the chipper and it was a very messy job, not that they were doing a bad job but the trees had multitudes of trunk like branches growing upwards from the bottom and there was a lot of dead stuff in the middle. I would take off what I could up to the height of the fence on your side then take a good look at what there is to work with.
  17. Try Duxford they might have some but they aren't going to be cheap.

    Just tip some petrol on it and set fire to it before you send it back and tell them it caught fire while you were using it
  19. Baby wipes get rid of everything, kids must have skin like rhinos.
  20. I have read this thread a few times and still can't see C1's motive for what he has done. He has robbed 2 other people of the money for the job for no gain to himself whatsoever after he failed to turn up to do the job in the first place and was told not to bother. Both these other contractors should be after their money from him. How did C3 get roped in ?

  22. Go to the forum Home page then User CP. There is an edit profile option in the menu on the left.

    Does that mean you can buy it without a climber's ticket if it's a gardener's saw ?
  24. A verbal contract is not worth the paper it's written on
  25. Did she have a passcode or fingerprint recognition on ? It's no use to anyone if it's locked but you still see them for sale so block the IMEI by putting it in lost mode.
