  1. If it’s not stolen they will possibly be able to tell you the history as to why it’s like that
  2. Any trailers needing a mot test which would also bugger up all the lot with stolen trailers! No chassis number sir? Your nicked.
  3. Another vote for rtec mine is 8years old and apart from a couple of torch liners has never needed anything. It’s done 7-8 bodywork restoration jobs plus all our tree/farm stuff. what ever you do get one with a dial for amp settings the older ones with a high/low and a 1/2 switch are crap in comparison.
  4. The aa fixed my truck last year
  5. Pops are barstards for that! More importantly did any one film it? https://youtu.be/V8O8Y7TAkgw?feature=shared
  6. That’s part of the body not the truck. Has the body got a makers plate on? If so try them
  7. If you don’t do it the next man will! I’ve given up getting hung up on it. Price strong and hope you don’t get it, if you do get it you earn well. unless it’s an absolute cracker of a tree then morally you have to stop but your average semi decent tree will grow back, if it didn’t we would all be out of work!

    The post

    I thought that was the milk man!
  9. I’ve got the jamson poles, bloody excellent once they wear they flex at the joints but some of mine are 6 years old. I quite regularly get 40’ of pole slid up a tree, you need a second pair of hands to put each section on as you slide them up!
  10. Have you an echo dealer local? They’re cheaper than stihl/husky but equal value for money with parts back up. A stihl 181. Will do all you require bit a little bigger would be far more pleasant to use imo. More importantly put the time into learning to sharpen properly, a small saw needs to be spot on to get the best from it.
  11. get a room and stop flirting in public, the pair of you are putting me off my cyder 🫣
  12. I bumped into a lad I went to school with in cape town airport once, it’s a strange old world
  13. Nar Hanoi!
  14. Have you got a multi meter? If you have check the batt has power, run a wire to the Solinoid on the pump then flash the starter with a screwdriver. This will get it to run, (need to disconnect the wire to the pump to stop it) once you have it back to the yard the problem will only seem half as bad. edit: just realised I’m 2 days late 🤦‍♂️ did you get it going or have you Set fire to it?
  15. When we were in nam we used to do the yard of ale but due to a lack of ale we used napalm, to this day I’ve still got firey farts
  16. Heat gun to melt the wax?
  17. Unfortunately like a cancer it will eventually kill its host. Lots of members with good posts slipping away to elsewhere
  18. Fire has been going daily since winter. But that does include heating our water and cooking. For us its cheaper to burn wood then switch over to gas
  19. It’s on digital radio, never really looked into digital before but this tractor has it in and I’ve learned suffin new - there is alsorts on it.
  20. I enjoy the mod bands. Recently I’ve had absolute radio Country on in the tractor, it was on from someone else the other day and I’ve gone a week of long days with out getting board by it so it can’t be to bad!
  21. Once you get over the noise and get a impact driver you will wish you got one years ago
  22. If it’s silver leaf then maybe “pruned by a gardener” who wasn’t really a tree man/woman might of been the issue
  23. You ok eggs? You normally seem quite well rounded but the last few days seem a bit out of caricature more bad egg than good egg.

    Jokes???

    Oi less of the little!
  25. They are generally not long lived trees in the bigger picture. I wouldn’t stress to much unless it has an expensive item in striking distance should it fail. If the rot gets dramatically worse then yes try to reduce below the damage or if all else fails they will coppice most of the time (coppice - cut it down to ground level and allow it to regrow)
