  1. I just beat them on the side teeth, a smack each side and they normally come out. Assuming the bolt has been removed ?
  2. Its not blue ? you feeling ok Bob? ?
  3. I was always told not to drain water from forks or old wounds as it keeps the air out and as decay needs oxygen.
  4. Midland road springs used to do upgraded springs. I’m going back 8 year or so and had no dealings with them since but we’re good quality at the time. any garage should be able to fit them.
  5. These guys sell teeth singularly so can just get what you need. Tree Stump Removal | Stump Grinding teeth WWW.STUMPTEETH.CO.UK Tree stump grinding teeth from Ammco Uk Ltd. All types of stump grinding teeth.
  6. Dibond in a light steel frame is another option for your sides, they will need a strengthening bar every m or so but 30x3mm flat bar isn’t heavy or expensive. The dibond will last years as long as you don’t launch timber at it like a nutter. Can also add vinyl signage to it, to look smart. dibond and a steel frame will cost more than ply but if used with respect will last a lot longer. If the board gets bent the frame could be reused with new board and lettering. Your sign company will be able to help with cost options, poss worth a conversation before spending out.
  7. It is a good choice tho, cracking machines with matching backup. They also hold there value second hand if you want to upgrade again in the future.
  8. Don’t discount the predator 460. It’s a hell of a machine.
  9. the customer doesn’t decide if they want to pay for machines or not they simply except the quote or if they can’t afford to pay my price they go the next contractor. the man or woman on the sharp end will decide what kit is needed and quote accordingly. give it few days then watch the Facebook £50 and the wood hero flatten the shed and not be insured. good call walking away @Bloom the best thing you can give to the competition is a bad customer.
  10. And dryad in various forms
  11. cheers for the reply Andy. It’s not ce marked for road tow however I have added lights to it and take it short distances (we can’t go far stuck on this little rock and are in the quite end of it? ) it does tow fine with proper wheel bearings and load/speed rated tyres it is just over a year old, only seen a max of 100 cube of our arb waste. I will get some pictures and video of it working etc for you tomorrow and have a think on price. will pm you once I’ve got some pictures sorted.
  12. Are you looking for a woodland mills log processor Andy? I have one that could be for sale, due to possible upgrade. I could easy make it fit a double pallet and get it on a lorry up country.
  13. As said above plus Pros Stumps are the same price but quicker and easier work so you earn that way. upgrade to a 38 from your 460 and it will get more places Heavy enough to assist the occasional fell running costs are much the same, poss use less teeth on a tracked grinder as the smaller machine notices blunt teeth sooner but only minimal difference cons you can’t run it up ramps into your tipper (assuming you’re running transit size truck) with chip and towing chipper so it makes the stump another trip or another truck and trailer on site
  14. I opened the thread thinking D6 or D8 ?
  15. Check the return line from the injectors back to the tank, especially if it goes via the injector pump if they get blocked they can cause funny symptoms on some engines, simple but often over looked
  16. Google “back haulage” or “return haulage” various sites available to get a quote from
  17. If your not making enough to pay for new teeth your grinding far to cheap! Overheads + profit = price, get out of the race to the bottom.
  18. Horses and riders should have to have a test to check they can cope with traffic, and should carry insurance, as should push bikes. That might slow the buggers up a bit.
  19. These things are good if they will fit down the hole, be warned tool station sell 2 sets but really it’s 1 full set in 2 packs and Sod’s law says which ever set you get you will need the other (I’ve got both for that reason ? ) Irwin Bolt Grip Nut Remover Set WWW.TOOLSTATION.COM Securely grips and removes stubborn nuts and bolts. Reverse spiral flutes bite down for maximum gripping power. 3/8” square drive for use with hand ratchets, impact wrenches and air... Edit: This is the other half of set, hey all fit in the box from first set Irwin Bolt Grip Nut Remover Set Expansion Set WWW.TOOLSTATION.COM Unique design that securely grips and removes stubborn nuts and bolts. Reverse spiral flutes bite down for maximum gripping power. High quality carbon steel ensures longer life...
  20. Most pro grinders will get aprox 16- 18inch deep from flat ground. You can always “dig it in” if you need to get a little deeper. If your going to be building a retaining wall, a digger with a root hook might be easier if you have access for a sensible size machine as it can reach down the slope with out disappearing down it ? and you can make use of it for the wall footings and back fill.
  21. Air flow is key, less air means slower drying. A real lack of air flow can mean mouldy logs that in turn dry evan slower.
  22. What sort of mpg to you get from the toe rag, we have thought it could be a good option but worried the v10 might be some what thirsty!
  23. HS2 tree protester 'willing to be arrested' WWW.BBC.CO.UK The man, called Quercus, was interviewed from a tree in an ancient Warwickshire woodland. I wonder how long they will last this time, Newbury bypass has to be the bench mark! i do think they have a good cause hs2 is a mess. I think the gov will win in the end, they won’t let the masses get in the way of their vanity project.
  24. I’ve had these recommended before, but, I’ve not had dealings with them personally, just had them saved. Kohler Engines | Uni-Power WWW.UNI-POWER.CO.UK Kohler Engines | Uni-Power
  25. Leave it, arbex and the like was left behind as crap years ago, it seals more crap in than it keeps out
