  1. Had to reupload original video due to quality issue.
  2. Which one ? The leak seems to be fixed, and the bust rear cross member held up very well!
  3. Had another decent day moving timber at Croft Race Track.
  4. I’m thinking petrol now to be honest. Initially I thought it’d be handy as I run Dewalt for all my hand tools, but realistically a basic Mitox one from Jonesie will do a better job for less than half the price. Thanks for the info and input though to those who replied! ??
  5. Actually, it gets quite pricey once you start adding it up. Might be better with a petrol one at these figures!
  6. Cool. Just looking now, 6ah battery going for about £100 on eBay.
  7. Cheers! Am I able to run it off my 18v batteries? I have 3 different ones that I chop and change between tools.
  8. Do you have a model number for it please?
  9. To be fair, I think it was operator mishap that led to this issue. I dropped a decent sized log on the back end of the machine, think that coupled with moving over my home made ditch crossings put a lot of strain on the wee machine. Thankfully it’s fettled up now, and have reinforced the area that broke. But, I fear all I have done is move the weak point elsewhere! (A quote from a fellow Bulleteer!)
  10. Had an interesting day today.
  11. Morning all, Has anyone by any chance used one of these little 18v Dewalt blowers? I run cordless Dewalt gear, so have the batteries to chop and change between the various items. I know it’s not a massive outlay for it, but it seems compact and handy for just blowing crap off the Logbullet and cleaning out the cab in the Shogun etc. I’ve got grease gun, Impact driver, drill and angle grinder and dead happy with them all.

  12. No messing about Don, top marks mate!
  13. Whether the leak has been solved remains to be seen.....
  14. Haha Khriss! Lost my marbles more like. Thankfully it all went back together OK.
  15. My best mate lives in Sydney with his wee family. I visited once in 2012 but only for two weeks, which wasn’t enough. I’d love to go back one day.
  16. Great info Steve, many thanks! I’m definitely going to sleep on it and get stuck back in tomorrow evening. Youll be looking for another new career after helping me out mate!
  17. The Alpin Pros are tickling my fancy. Sock wise, now you mention it I’m likely due to replace a what I’ve got. Smart wool are decent, so might look at them. Cheers.
  18. Funnily enough, I’ve just closed the laptop down and done just what you said. my other half is a teacher, but knows absolutely nothing! So I’ll run it past her once I’ve got some more down. Im better at felling trees then picking them up, rather than typing stuff. I’m sure that’s obvious! ?
  19. I must admit, the Treehog boots do absolutely nothing for me. I’m aware that might be daft, as they might be perfect, but I’d weep every time I looked down at them! ? I appreciate the recommendations though folks. Bit of a mystery for now then, I’ll carry on for a while and see if I can get up to Gustharts when it opens again.
  20. So, I bet Steve is going to read this and weep! Im in the process of attempting write some content for my website that Steve is going to sort for me. However, I’m sat looking at my laptop which has been on my knees for about 45 mins and I have managed to type 170 words, of which I think 165 are waffle/bollocks. I am terrible at this kind of thing! Any top tips out there an where to even make a start? I am not after anything flashy or jargon loaded nonsense. But I honestly do not know where to start. It needs to really just be a bit about me, what I do and where I work. Easy said, but flipping hard to do! My mind is blank! ?
  21. I am the same, there is so much variety in boots that you definitely need to try them on. Traditionally I have had to avoid Meindl as they were too wide, but I might have to get them if my weird foot growth continues!
  22. After a bit more research, it appears I am suffering from a Bunionette or Tailor’s Bunion.
  23. A lot of these boots look like orthopaedic ones.... ?
  24. Morning mate. I said it was a bunion! And my know it all other half proclaimed it to be a corn?! I’ve noticed it steadily growing, but it’s never bothered me until recently when I started prodding and poking it. Now it’s a bit tender! I like the look of Pfanners too.
