  1. I already have a 550,560 and 372 so got the back handles covered. Looking at a 540
  2. Push it up to the front of the trailer. Strap round the back to headboard and one side to side.
  3. Hand t auger?? Still not massive but probably more than 600. What do you need to drill?
  4. Thinking kings wood as they got a combined course over 6 days.
  5. Thanks for the reply that's real helpful, best get my kit bag and figure out what I need.
  6. Got a helmet sorted, cambium saver do I go rings on sling or an art/teufelberger saver??
  7. Trying to get my gear sorted for 38/39 Already have a few bits including harness Rope Bunch of biners Pulleys Spurs Flip line I'm guessing I'll need some Prussik loops and a few more clip. Anybody else got any thoughts?? Hoping to get out climbing before I hit the course so I don't look a complete beginner.
  8. Used to spray 2k and cells on both cars and furniture for years. Yeah it's smelly stuff but you can't beat a 2k paint and clear finish on a car.
  9. I have hi flex. But really you need to try a few pairs on and see what fits you best. A good dealer should have a few pairs in and let you try them on.
  10. Made something similar before but milled the logs square then used a big chop saw to get them flat and true
  11. I use osmo top oil natural. Great water resistance and pretty hard wearing.
  12. I need to access tracks,woodland and lots of farm tracks to get to where I'm cutting everyday so that's my excuse. Also as above having somewhere to keep fuel and saws outside is great.
  13. I personally use a 50mm karlsson adze for most things and it's awesome.
  14. A guy by the name of Rhys Harris makes tools. Can find him on Facebook. It's really worth spending the extra for a karlsson or gransfors, much better quality took with years of use in the design and also they don't loose money over time.
  15. Are you talking a curved adze for bowls? If so by far the best are the hans karlsson ones.
  16. Yep it's the brava/tfs and it's a good truck. 3.1td
  17. It was. It's a 02 rodeo and with them it's awesome. No more coming out of 4wd when you reverse.
  18. Milners sell locking hubs. I replaced the hubs on my Isuzu and so much better off road.
  19. I thought that but saws only cut an acre of wood
  20. Not got them with me right now I'll check tomorrow. Bars only seen an acre of coppice and chain was brand new n
  21. Put a new chain (Oregon fc) onto my month old Sugi bar. Thoroughly checked for burrs and rail height and all fine. Few cuts into the day notice bar getting hot, cleaned everything and oils getting through. Then by lunch it was hot today and bamm chain feels blunt and links look peened on the bottom. I have been given bio oil by land owner and it's real thin stuff so thinking that's he cause. Normally get a couple months on new chain with normal oil Any thoughts???
  22. 30-31 waist and have a sequoia
  23. Wear my airstreams for long and short walks. Nice and comfy and waterproof, I tend to wear them 8 hrs+ each day of the week anyway.
  24. I cut for a few land owners and need cutters to work alongside me on certain jobs. Mainly coppice but also so thinning and ride wide jobs. Based in and around Ashford.
