  1. Yep I think this would look best. Here is mine, I'm not very pleased with it but it was done in a hurry
  2. I just take a dry t shirt for lunch time. Never seen a man go rusty!
  3. Yep I like the clipper tea, but the missus seems to buy a different make each time, now we are on twinnings everyday tea, but at least they are square👍
  4. I like square ones👍👍👍👍👍
  5. If it's only a screen not a hedge what about willow? Cheap to buy grows like mad, plant 4 or five rows close to each other and just trim the top each year with a flail when it reaches the desired height
  6. Using petrol is fine, but just use one hand too cover yer eyebrows when you throw it on
  7. I sold one about a year ago for £130, it ran lovely, wish I hadn't sold it..... Non runner probably worth less than 100
  8. Good program on bbc2 about the forests of New England at the moment, great footage of leaf miners at work
  9. I'm looking for somewhere to tip chip and or logs. Not everyday but I'm getting more of my own work now so need somewhere. Thanks will
  10. Er, thanks I followed the link and spotted a Stijl 051 further down the page, now it will take all of my will power not to bid on this saw
  11. Hi Sean, it's good that there are charities out there to help people through difficult times and I hope you are getting on ok. It's a very hard thing to do to run a marathon, I did a few years back, never again! Well done to your sister! Come on people if we all put in a little bit then we can help her raise a lot of money. Thanks will
  12. Took me a while to get that, till I said it out loud in a Scottish accent!😂
  13. Can't you take pictures everyday at work for a couple of weeks? I'm trying to do my website as well and this is what I am doing. I have plenty of photos of other people working but have to ask people to take them of me now. If you are desperate for some then pm me your mobile number and i will send you some of mine
  14. That's what I thought!
  15. Nearly had a couple saws on my bench earlier today. Couldn't work out why my husky 372 would fire up on choke run for a bit, smoke like a bonfire, and then die. Plus my groundys 461 was quite smokey. To cut a long story short someone had mixed five litres of diesel instead of petrol.... Emptied saws out back into the drum the diesel had come from filled with new petrol and it fired up fine and ran well all day. The 460 ran ok for nearly a whole tank of diesel😂
  16. I've just started out on my own, priced and did a few jobs before Xmas, made good money, bit of subbing in between, but now on a job I have badly underpriced, going to take 5 days instead of three, with extra labour on top. I could kick myself. Should have known how long it would take, maybe I've been spoilt working for a big firm with lots of kit and bodies to help out. Forgotten how long things take with only 3 of us, a saw that's not big enough and having to handball everything. Feel like going back to work for someone else. But I won't get far with that attitude.
  17. Where are the wood fairies when you need them?
  18. Oh and it is a massive butt Jon, but it's cut up into quarters
  19. Hi I've felled a large poplar tree yesterday but need the wood gone today. Had no log fairies turn up yet even tho I've advertised locally. So if anyone wants any it's free, roadside and in manageable lengths 07917725646 Thanks will
  20. Yep I have bought one and only used it once, found it a few years later and took it to work. My mate wanted to try it and used it to wedge a big chog off, he left his hinge too big and put too much pressure on the handle and bent it. Probably dig it out in a few years time and have another go again! Does look good in the vid tho
  21. My missus isn't posh and she likes shopping there👎I tell her that proper posh people go to lidls
  22. He's got another pair just like that at home
  23. I'm using one on my 200t. Doesn't seem to grabby to me. I'll be buying more if they ever wear out
  24. For climbing I use a muddy fox cycling jacket, not completed waterproof but nice and light and only £20 in sports direct. I have 2 and change at lunch if wet all day
