Anyway, back to my main topic. Am I allowed to take the crane off and put it on the trailer and then restore the 1124 or will I be blackballed on the forum!

That last paragraph is what I also concluded, but did you ever try to put the spades in a year before lifting? Did you discover which trees took to transplanting and which did not I transplanted a small ornamental maple in the garden which is doing well and a couple of possibly disease resistant elms, also doing well. The other vital thing would be to constantly monitor the watering which would probably be neglected in my case with other things taking priority

This one has been converted to use the tractor hydraulics, the tractor being far more appropriate to manoeuvre and transport a tree with a good lump of soil attached across arable land i bought it to transfer some young oaks, about four inches in diameter. The machine worked well but the oaks did not like it as they had developed a large tap root i should have perhaps inserted the spades a year before and withdrawn them to let the trees recover before moving What was your experience with the spade and have you any advice for me?

Correct! So a couple of plate photos for all you anoraks plus one of the County with puncture repaired plus mystery object in the background, arb related

What???!! When you have all those gorgeous River Dance girls to play with. I think you need to get out a bit more!!

So it still starts on the button and all the hydraulics work, but it is very tired and I have no use for it as the Teleporter has far more capacity and is much more stable even though the County has water filled wheels I would love to restore it just as a plain 1124 and fit the crane on the trailer where it was before or would this be a sacrilegious act in the eyes of you lot. It would be used far more as plain 1124

Not just for emission reduction, but also for conservation both of natural resources and species, stopping pollution and wars

These boys know what they are doing!

Keep singing the praises of the Lucas Mill. Just under £10K from Fuelwood makes it a bit of a bargain given its versatility and ease of maintenance The electric winch I fitted on my 8/30 model has made life easier Still not as quick as bandsaw machines but it is a good compromise as I never have any heavy log manoeuvring to do. In the yard there is the Teleporter but I can take the Lucas out to a Five foot diameter tree twenty feet long in a pickup or trailer and bring it home in slabs or boards or joists Very rarely Slab nowadays as I have a barn full so mostly fencing and general timber 21 years old now, original blades, engine in fact original everything. Oh yes and then there is the new electric start method! Just click ignore if you cannot stand any more Lucas eulogies!

And I thought that I was a lone voice here, but just seen this

Can you give me a reference for that It is made from castor oil and does not have chemical formulas as far as I know

Agree that the brain of a Brexiteer would be far better than using the brain of a Remainer which would do all it could to keep the poisonous infection in place.

We had trouble in our 1983 built house with air being forced under the six inch layer of fibreglass insulation in the roof via the eves vents This icynene is a breathable foam and does not seem to be as chemically based as other foams We took out all the fibreglass and filled the house roof spaces with this icynene and the difference is Fantastic. Stopping draughts is as important as insulation for heat loss by conduction

Just too many human beings. Need a reduction to about 2 billion hopefully by intelligent birth control Not just for emission reduction, but also for conservation both of natural resources and species Anything less than population control is just pissing in the wind.

Big J , you are a man working with wood, so...... Or if that is not big enough

Totally agree with this and Dan Maynard. For domestic use a sixteen in bar on a small Stihl is fine. They are so light and handy for limbing and obviously can cut up to 30 inches on occasion but unless you are tackling big trees all the time the majority of domestic timber will not be much more than eight inch. I bought three Stihl 170s about ten years ago for £124 each on a special offer. One with a sixteen inch bar and the other two twelve inch. All going like new still Easy to start , less to sharpen on the 12 inch, light and easy to manoeuvre from a Teleporter man cage, especially reaching out, and very economical on fuel. At the end of the day I do not feel that my arm has nearly been wrenched off as with the bigger saws

It was pushed uphill for about 100 yards then started You are right about a hidden switch somewhere but many of the devils are familiar with short cuts. He uses it every day and it is parked in a locked shed near his house with two young dogs who heard nothing There is a huge inconvenience in taking the wheels off every night and I suggested one of those alarm thingys which clamp over the brake disc and go off with movement about £20 I think

When I posted this link to Wikipedia it definitely said that he had died today. I always thought that Wikipedia was slightly more reliable in these matters but I am now wiser and they gave obviously taken down the mischievous information I should have copied it for those who think I am making mischief Apologies especially to Stubby for upsetting him and also to anybody else

So where are we now with all of this? A friend has just had his quad stolen for the third time, in the same way. The thieves must be local as they have local knowledge about navigation through fields and knowledge of his replacements A lot of these anti theft alarms cost more than the cost of the insurance. And then you have the problem of 1 Maybe being woken in the night, going down for a confrontation and ending up either in hospital or court or both 2. Finding your bike either by gps or microdot police but although it looks ok there is a possibility that it has been abused, over revved or similar 3. The inconvenience of having to set alarms, unlock lock and lost keys 4 The extra damage caused to workshop or garage doors by making them more secure compared to a simple padlock which is easily cut and still is enough to demonstrate breaking and entering Against this is the massive inconvenience of being without the item, but it should be not too hard to hire one while the insurance is being sorted In my friends case though because they are local it would be good to catch them but what would happen to them in the current a climate where I saw in the news the other day a man with 100 previous convictions not being jailed. Any further thoughts?

They also had some wood workshops with what looked like a vice to clamp wood while you work it using your feet, and another device that I could not quite work out but which was probably a form of lathe

Very impressed with both the National Museum in Copenhagen and the Viking Museum at Trelleborg I thought that displaying artifacts on slabs gave much more life to the objects . Animate wood as opposed to inanimate glass and plastic

Probably the main reason processors were invented, to keep the saw blades and splitting away from the operator behind guards. This is only a small splitter but are there bigger versions for large vertical splitters that somehow come down with the ram or pop up hydraulically?
