  1. Zero coal after it closed a few weeks back
  2. We were doing the same at cement works in the UK, not sure if they're still doing it tho.
  3. You mean like never sneeze ?
  4. Coal is also primarily Australian, as they've almost banned burning it where it's mined. I am actually surprised China isn't allowing plastic waste to "recycle", free fuel and all that.
  5. Well we have gone to one produced part of my arse 😉
  6. Probably written by the nutters moaning about burning rubbish in incinerators to produce heat and electricity. Whilst in the same breath saying we should be burying non recyclable, it's almost like they have a mental disconnect like it disappears when covered in soil.
  7. Think you'll find that's incorrect, the largest reduction was during the Donald due to the switch to shale gas instead of coal. Closing manufacturing and moving to Mexico doesn't count
  8. Probably true, also watched a few videos of the guys doing street lights maintenance. Even they're like WTF with Glasgow switching just to make things even more interesting and electrically dangerous.
  9. If you also look at the street lights, is that 3 phase wiring above it ?. Visually it looks like it zigzags between the street lights. Not saying it was the right sized machine or placement, but both would be at fault.
  10. Wasn't sure if you had something for use like that in the yard 🙂
  11. What about one of those 3 point bucket things if you've a little compact tractor?. Granted it's double handing and probably quicker just to move the truck closer to the shed.
  12. Did you want a round of applause ?. It just sounds like you don't know if you want to be a gardener, tree surgeon, brash dragger, climber or sprayer of weedkiller.
  13. Someone saw someone coming!.

    Storage

    If you have the cash, you can always offer to buy the container for free rent and then it's theirs after and however much a month. Had a few people over the years asking and expecting me to foot the bill for a container!.
  15. I'd never advocate using a full sized cutting disc on a grinder, the Dremel is almost surgical with a 1" cutting disc. It's almost like writing with a fountain pen if you have the flexible shaft version.

    It was the wandering Mona Lisa eye on it that got you banned 😉
  17. That's the beasty I was thinking of, always thought the firewood it produced was garbage in the videos. If I wasn't in a smoke control zone, I'd be buying a cheap polish woodchip boiler and cutting out all the hassle 🙂
  18. Realistically how many miles are we talking about per day, is it better to just increase the day rate than trying to calculate the mileage and making your billing sound too complicated or arsey ?. £20 a day providing it's not off the estate or something equally simple?.
  19. Or carefully Dremel them off if they've become welded to the shaft. Cut them carefully and use a flat screwdriver to open it enough to slide of the shaft.
  20. I'm not the Messiah, my mother just tells me I'm a naughty boy.
  21. I've a few buried in the mud in Belgium of that's what your asking.
  22. With all this free time to post meme's, shouldn't you be getting back to your party funded Kamala drum beating and door knocking in those swing states ?.
  23. Wasn't knocking it, just economic reality.
  24. Badged in Poland, just a reduction gearbox with blades. I have memories of a version that used a gearbox and a woodchipper style flywheel that turns slowly to shears and roll the branch as it cut. Think it was posch or remet, typically over engineered and expensive
  25. I have to agree to disagree I'm afraid, whilst I will agree that anything sub £100 is usually terrible garbage. Most rimfire and air including FAC don't need much more than £200, spend more if your a HFT tackle tart as that's usually bonkers carp fishing levels of money, whilst I envy the accuracy it just feels too clinical. What's the quote from rush, you focus on the numbers you spoil the game. Even your average centre fire shooter isn't doing much more than a few 2-300 yards. Unless you next level 260Rips, then enjoy taking it out to almost a mile.
