As you've already got a manitou, why not just buy a cheap semi scrap 3/4 ton agri trailer. They have large tyres, dual axle would be preferable to spread the weight and a 4 ton would get atleast 4 at a time. Anything road trailer wise will get stuck very quickly as they're like lawn tractor tyres.
-
£45, I don't want you giving it away and working for nothing!. We could send it all via royal mail and he can airfix it together?. Glue and dovetails not included.
-
I'm sure even they get deliveries if you're ordering enough. All the houses can't all be salvaged from shipwrecks, there only so much driftwood available for building that wicker man. Or is it you quoting £45, that's up your neck of the Highlands 😉
-
An IBC cages of firewood will weigh about the same as one filled with water when unseasoned. I use a rough terrain forklift around the yard and a full cage is about a ton, from experience don't move two at a time either. Probably best to just make a hard standing or track, cuts down the moving but can take the weight for a normal trailer.

Someone's pulling your leg, howarth have it listed as £41.98 Inc vat for a 6.9m C24 kiln dried.

Just ring forst direct

43 according to my calculator. A hectare is 2.4 acres
-
I was highlighting that it's not the actual size of the installation, it'll just be the purchase of the farm/estate under a CPO. Hinkley Point A at 500MW had a transformer area of only 2 acres outside the main gates.
-
It won't be 200 or 860 acres, as 1 square mile is 640acres
-
Always wondered if it was ozone, as the high voltage does create it and it's damaging to health. Had experience with it on aquatics, it literally eats anything organic or plastic.
-
Oh it's compatible, but UK power has always been a bit spicier than the EU. Generally it's 220/380 with very little change in the EU, here it's 240/415 and even then it can be 250 depending on the time of day
-
I'm not sure about the AC in water thing, as the cables are that well isolated. But marine life such as sharks etc might be more liable to attack it. One assumes DC effectively cancels itself out, plus also allows better isolation as UK voltage and frequency is different to the continent. Tom Scott did a video about it ages ago, as the EU network is so large it varies, causing clocks to run at a different operating frequency.
-
On the plus side that's Darwin working well, no kids to worry about.
-
Says it's on hold, think they started one from Germany last month to somewhere on the south coast
-
There's supposedly going to be a DC cable between Norway & Scotland, Google says Peterhead and that's like 1400MW. The wind farm probably wouldn't need that level of transformation unless it's at sea, being wind dependent it's up/down and adds cost. They've still not even grid connected the Shetlands or was it Orkneys?.
-
It's supposedly more efficient the higher the voltage, is this also part of the link from Norway ?.
-
That probably explains the many lorries with big arse transformers when I was up Aviemore the other week. Are they just changing the voltage and not the towers ?. Always told it's safe, but also seen the fluorescent tube thing under them so not entirely sure. Can you get a cheap spectrum analysis thing like "Ringway Manchester" has on YouTube?.

Advice: Which Stump Grinder for my Small Business
GarethM replied to Jamie Jones's topic in Business Management
Holy thread resurrection batman. Oh you're hawking. -
Whilst I've never done the battery thing, I did replace the PCB on a Westwood. Same thing, LEDS, headlights, relays and a seat safety switch. Its a ride on mower, the key should have a sticker saying turning this agrees you're not a moron otherwise call for a gardener.
-
With the side plate removed, does the clutch spin freely within the cup, as @Mick Dempsey has said clutch springs. Might be down to how you removed the clutch or just worn out springs.
-
HIK LC06 seems to be the cheapest at around £350, not spending more for squirrels. It was more for locating & identifying them hidden in the tops of the trees, rifle scope is more than sufficient after that and I can get closer but 20-50 yards is the average. What with the rain and woodland management, encouraging the birds of prey it's probably been a poor year for the squirrels. Just like to think, creating an absence draws then in from further afield and the cycle repeats helping the reds elsewhere.
-
Had been looking at the £300 ones, more for seeing where the little buggers are hiding in the tops of canopy. Granted I'll probably just wait until it warms up and a calm evening, then just follow the noise of the falling nuts and seeds.
-
Does anyone have any real world experience of the cheap thermal monoculars on small targets?. I do a lot of squirrel control, obviously this time of year makes it harder to see upto about 80 yards

Can an Elm survive Dutch Elm disease?
GarethM replied to AnnieDee's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
If it's FREE then take up the offer, it's a few hundred quid you don't have to pay 🙂. Maybe say you're so worried about the beetles, I think it needs stump grinding as part of the deal!. -
Was it orange plant Warrington way, last year that ended up mostly at auctions ?. Looking at the website, it was a glut of too much new stock and multiple brands, you can't be an all things to all men one stop shop with millions of quid in stock just depreciating.
