Don't start me on people ignoring cordoned off areas! Glad you have a good ground team :-) however none of us are safe from women drivers! ;-) (* awaiting backlash for this comment!)

I think the main thing to concentrate on is not to have numpty staff who don't give a crap & for the Climber to stay on top of his (or her) rope management but back in the real world where some peeps pay peanuts for brash monkeys... The 2nd video speaks for itself & should be shown to every employee. I guess peeps don't think about the flywheel & assume the rope would go in at the speed of the feed rollers?

Apologies if it's been posted before but he raises a good point [ame] [/ame]

I wouldn't it's just every time I look at a tree I think which would be the best way up it & how I'd fell it, it's a curse really.
-
4 Archway? It'd be an interesting fell!

It's not work when you love what you do, I wouldn't do anything else apart from maybe international playboy

Chill out mate, I was only having a laugh :-) I wasn't knocking ya, you are literally twice my weight, so if I was luckily I reckon I can run faster ;-) -

Pretty much what I say to 'em - "if you can do the gym 3 nights a week, you're not working hard enough in the day!" -
Had a centre propshaft bearing go & do the same thing, not a nice experience. That's what I thought it may be, there's a little bit of play in it but I guess there needs to be?
-
Yeah it's lsd. 5k miles seems too frequent? But hey could be cheaper in the long run. Definitely not uj's
-
Get Bartletts in! They're the experts, make sure it's on a windy day though ;-)

Agreed

Pfffft, Tis a picture of sheer beauty! :-)

The 461 uses a tank every half hour if she's flat out. Imagine the battery packs if we went electric!? -

Kindling maker splitter attachment wanted

Cheers for the input guys. Staggered a bit like this [ame] [/ame] Just got back from the vets after a 1600 quid vet bill so it's going to have to be bargain basement / skip diving stylie... -
Yeah it does but it's a bit flimsy, I had that lid once, never again though + the hearing protection doesn't push into the ear very well with the lid on ya head. Try the petzl vertex with the vents
-
Joking aside it will probably be my next lid but it'll be in white with no stickers, i'm holding back because I still haven't seen one on site.

Hi Dave, coffee sludge type stuff in rear diff. Got her up on blocks, took her to 60 mph then turned her off, got back underneath & listened, hard to say without being under load but there is a definite rumble on the axle. £90 for a rebuild kit of bearings so hopefully won't be too bad, it needs to be cheap cos my dog is currently 4 hours into his operation atm...

This is what bothers me about getting one made, will it just chog up? Was thinking about some froes horizontally with some cut up froes vertically at the back of the horizontals so the cut/split is staggered but that won't be cheap. I like the idea of digger bucket edge but finding one That I can butcher is another matter :-) -
Cheers but it looks like it may be the rear diff! Finding rocking horse poo is looking easier than finding a replacement axle!
-
This is what works for me...
