  1. It a belter, we we're able to move good size chunks to the truck with minimal agro so that's a win win....we pulled over a butt with it, I could drag big bits out of the way...stuff that needs 2 lads for this does with ease...
  2. I've just bought this Boxer 427, it's a game changer.....
  3. Where did you get that please? That looks just the job
  4. Get onto Timberwolf tecnichal or call Spectrum Plant and ask Aidy, he's very knowledgeable TW chippers

  6. I'm sure when I had a 150 many years ago that the flywheel just knocked out and the bearing case screwed out?? Something like that...
  7. Timberwolf fitted Steel Fins to my 150 a few years ago, it was an upgrade that they made for 150's. It might be worth contacting them and seeing if it's still available. It was 4 bits of angle iron bolted on to the flywheel, it was way more efficient than the cast fans. I think I have a thread on here from about 2014 or 15 about it if you search.
  8. It's tough eggs, I had it last year, 3 friends passed away, one by choice, one by drink and one by life's lottery. I found it hard and it was a few sessions with my mind man to help me understand it. Ultimately I look at at as "it is what it is and I can do deck all about it apart from live my life the best I can each day" sorry for your loss.....
  9. The SG 40 is excellent, there are a couple of things I preferred on the JO Beau but overall the Bandit is excellent. The Razor Wheel is far better than green teeth, they cutter hold an edge longer and don't break as often, they are easier to sharpen too. The Bandit could do with the cutter being able to fold up out of the way like the Jo Beau did and also would be better if it had a deeper grind but I can manage. Overall the build quality on the Bandit is better in my opinion, apart from the access to one of the drive bearing being bloody annoying. This is one of the things that lets it down but it only takes a few mins to remove the cover to grease it, the other is the stupid petrol tank filler.......overall the Bandit is a better machine in my opinion.
  10. I love my SG with the Razor wheel, far better than Greenteeth....
  11. My wife teaches, she leaves at 7.30am and gets home at 5, then marks books from 6.30 until 9 or 10, in the holidays she plans lessons etc, some nights on the phone with parents or students....so your 190 days is bollocks!
  12. Try Andy Hancock at Bergen Tree Services. He has got an air spade. I'm sure you can Google his number if notPM me and I will let you have it. Tell him I passed on his details.
  13. We tried doing a fence like that many years ago and it melted the pipes on the sprayer😂😂
  14. I wasn't after an argument, I have been reading the thread with interest and I found your post in funny....I asked a question and it's lead here.....and I don't shower in a morning [emoji106]I wish big J luck in his new venture and look forward to his reports....
  15. Oh dear, and you think saying people wank off over the rule makers is respectful?? I bet you could start an argument in an empty room.

  17. My opinion has nothing to do with it, I just find your attitude towards people that have a differing opinion to you quite childish. I knew I would be in for it by asking the question. But hey that's just my opinion [emoji6]
  18. So people who have different opinions and views to yours are wrong? Mmmmmm yeah ok

    Blood groups .

    Get a blood test done, I think you may even be able to get it done by prick test at a pharmacy.
  20. Apologies Mac, you can adjust the buy it now on eBay. I think if you make that lower like you say around £150 they will go. All the best.
  21. So he paid £190 but they have a buy it now of £235 plus £12 postage?? Is he having a laugh.....they are only £185 off Jonsie[emoji23][emoji23]
  22. Sounds like you need a fan to circulate the heat and maybe a dehumidifier to pullout the moisture........just an idea for someone with no idea[emoji23][emoji23]
  23. The telescopic are excellent as well as being so useful with the extension. I don't find them too heavy. Have you tried them?
  24. He's been through it a bit but he's still being John! He's liking his 500i a lot. He's got a new lady who I think has a cafe or something like that. I keep in touch with him.
