  5. Hi Eddie , I came across a old import Mitsubishi 3 ton wth extra reach and beefed up balance weights 7 years ago , cracking old machine which still today I regret not buying and Mitsubishi mini diggers have a good reach for a small machine. Ste
  6. Your not wrong there, plumber's and Roofers' the Stories of prices they have charged some of my Garden Customers leave me with a bitter taste of anger £600 for flushing central heating out , £450 for pointing ridge tiles . Ste

  9. The engie in the Toro Turf master is the proven – Kawasaki® FJ180V 179cc Commercial , cracking motor and well up to the job , this mower is not like a Scag/ferris or Conder and not for Paddocks etc so need for a bigger motor . Ste
  10. Here a link to my video of my Toro which I swear by , on me 3rd season with very little issues, I have modified the blades to cut lower and picked up the rev a wee bit and a bungee cord for wet conditions to keep grass box lid open . Remember this mower is not really suited for the UK grass conditions but more the dry state yank lawns and it does Stipulate in the manual for USE ON WELL MAINTAINED LAWNS, It cuts the specific lawns I regularly mow and saves me 4 hours week compared to using my Honda pro etc . Has said its heavy and the drive will not stand a young inexperienced lad dragging him out of bed . Ste
  11. A Brilliant way to draw focus on the main picture , did you drop filter on lens or edit it on . Ste
  12. Cheers for that tip , I may give that a go . Only problem for me is working under wheel arch so room is limited and they are angled downwards . Ste
  13. Todays job and it will be next Saturdays job too the way its turning out , original gasket was a one piece steel job has the new ones are individual to each port ,been to machine mart today to pickup a flexible drill drive has only its the only way i am going to get in at them out without dropping engine out . Easyouts on hand but i am reluctant to use them in case they Snap but time will tell when i start drilling them if they move , am going to get a engineer mate to grind a drill bit left handed first has the other Studs came out fairly easy .All this to be done under the Wheel arc Cant complain has the Truck is 15 years old and 130,000 miles and second time in over 8 years its sort of let me down .

  14. I'm going to hazard a guess ......that's your yard gate and you ain't going to work lol. Ste
  15. Over the last 4 months I have had a massive clearout of old saws,mowers,motorbikes,Tractors and just about everything else from Paving flags to pushbikes to tin baths ! I would like to thanks our Friends in China for screwing the Scrap job up BUT in return the value of Older vintage machines/tools has shot up especially .I use to cringe and cry at some of the old farm machines that were been taken for scrap when the scrap price was somewhere around £170 a ton . I am or was a Hoarder for the last 20 years and I knew in time they would be worth more and in return invested the coin in to my Business. I honestly think we now have a shortage of older vintage machines these days . Ste

  17. I hated using my Tipper (LDV:thumbdown:) for Gardening rounds , too high , to much on show and fed up with forgetting to strap mowers up and first set of lights I pull up BAng ! Last 4 years using my short wheelbase IVECO panel van only downside is if a lawnmower hits Dog/cat shite it smells the van out . I think a crewcab is a better option for strimmers etc . Ste
  18. Sat in a Greasy spoon Cafe for 2 hours having a big fry up and deciding if this Horrible weather was going to ease off but ultimately it did not , executive decision by myself to call it a day and head back home (5 mins) and work from HQ . Ste
