I have a year old cabstar and it's a great truck. Amazing turning circle and will out pull most transits I have driven
-
Diyspareparts have been good for parts
-
A cheap hultafors knife and rubber mallet make quick work of kindling. After a while you get a rhythm going and it's fairly quick, I can normally do a net in about 5mins
-
550xp all day long 13/15/18" bar it will fly on all of them
-
As above, Scott runs a great course, also set in a beautiful part of Kent so I'm sure you wouldn't mind staying down that way for the course.

Just add a tag line below the pulley clipped to your rigging line and keep the tale with you. Easy to pull it back to yourself if the groundys can't whip it

A 550 with a 15 and 18" bar will do most stuff. The best saw I go to is a 562 with a 24" bar and then onto a 3120. But everyday use for me is a 550, light, bags of power and easy to use all day long

James Vann at summerhill woodworks should be able to help

Cheap harness is a sling around your arms with a clip on the front. I cross a sling and wear it like a backpack for advancing my setup

Depending where your coming from the byway near Stonehenge is always full of van campers. But in theory of your van doesn't look like a camper you can park anywhere. My old panel van was converted with no windows and I have spent many nights on high streets, outside pubs and even in central London for 3 weeks

My girlfriend has airstreams in a 5. In the end lister wilder got them sorted for her but if you ring honeys or jones I'm sure they can sort some for you

Yeah just get carbons [emoji12]

What angle of attack are you using for the outside? Always cut from the bottom of the bowl towards the rim on the the outside, use the bevel rubbing and start a cut then slowly work round in one pass if you can. On the inside same thing but cut from rim to base.

Lawrence's video the Schultz effect is well worth buying. He has put a serious amount t of work into it
-
I turn green to finish in one hit but my bowls are not sanded. I give them a final clean cut with a sharp gouge. If you get an even thickness then you shouldn't experience any splitting.

I have some arbpro clip boots that at 2 years old now and worn nearly every day for leisure and work. Soles are starting to smooth out a bit now and the edges coming loose a bit. Otherwise they have been great and I can see another few years in them yet. They are like wearing socks with rubber on the bottom after a day out the box. I also got some yellow arbpro with the ascender bolts in the side. No protection and more like a normal boot. Super light and really comfy.

You can get airstreams in a 5 as my misses has some
-
As timbernut says. My 560 runs a 15" .325 But my 562 runs a 24" 3/8

Interesting feedback cheers. As you say it's very feedback based on how you appear to victims (customers)
-
Anyone here using check a trade and have some feedback on it? A few guys I sub to use it and really rate it, varies from £90 -120 a month so it's a fair bit if your not getting calls. It seems to be heavily based on review percentage but until you start getting jobs how do you build the reviews??

Small world the tree world. Jo is a great guy

Decent oil and full throttle. They love to be spanked
