  1. If we had that set up, we'd be hounded to hell by the horse girls wanting the dust!!!!
  2. How much space do you need?? Asking, as we get pestered something rotten all the time asking to rent literally a 'patch' of land wanting to keep stuff at ours.... We can't accept as we're tenant farmers.... So how about approaching a land owner type farmer?? You'll be surprised at just how much some of them have as 'dead' areas in the corners of their yards....
  3. Ours is currently set up that way at work. Sucks the water out of a butt that's supplied from a tap to a water trough ball valve in the butt. This'll be changing though, as when we move, it'll be supplied off a 10,000 litre rain water capture tank from our new shed, that will be also supplying the crop sprayer. Think mega reduced water rates...
  4. Just tries to click the 'Reviews' tab on the right of the main page, and it's coming up with some 'server error'??? Any ideas?? How else could I contact admin etc to inform them without putting a thread up like this??
  5. People ask what's the price first round here.... That then decides what they're going to buy....
  6. This thread's got me thinking.... I wish we hadn't sold our horse sh*t hoover.... Towable, runs on a Honda engine into a hopper where you just pull a lever to tip and empty....
  7. Find new fencer... Git rid of him - regardless. And then name and shame him in here (They may learn lesson then)........ Know this from personal experience of working WITH a tw** of a fencer back in the 90's. 'We' were always in bother on site because of him messing about. In the end, I walked off site leaving him on his own on a London site, and was back home in Northumberland within the same day - National Express I thank you...
  8. Try the 'bay' for saws, but......... Try putting in a different postcode than your usual one.... (And I mean one that's at the other end of the country from you...) Been watching eBay for while now, in case something I fancy crops up.... And there has been over the last week or so... Loads and I mean loads of 'used' chainsaws up for sale, by people with 'strangely' 100% feedback....????
  9. This is why I like this forum... Thanks people (again). And at least I know it's not just me finding Stihl files not 'lasting'....

    Don't know if you can still get them but...... Years ago, working on the railways as a fencer, we needed a 'light weight' petrol run compressor to run a rivet gun and an air impact driver for different types of fencing we put up. It was your still your Honda engine, just coupled to a compressor. The good part was though, the 'receiver' was the frame... Instead of normal / basic inch diameter tubing frame, it was made of bigger and thicker stuff - slightly larger than scaff tubing.... Similar to this, as I've just done a quick Google... https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/clarke-cfp9hnd-portable-5hp-petrol-engine-driv/
  11. Just reading old threads on which files to go for, could you 'update' me on which I could / should go for?? I see there's (obviously) Stihl And Oregon. But what about these Vallorbe and Oberg brands?? Are they any better than Stihl, as that's what we use ATM??
  12. Google 'miniinthebox.co.uk' Scroll down the left panel to LED lighting..... Any good?? You may get LED bulbs instead of replacing the whole light cluster units....??

    Ideas

    Don't do owt - always broke........
  14. Do you think there'll be any tonight?? I missed out on them here even though the wife said 'LOOK'!!!!!!!!!! I had signed up for email alerts from Lancaster Uni too ages ago.... But they never alerted me for this time!!!!!!!
  15. Yeah, the rings just roll along to under the splitter and away you go...
  16. Without reading the whole thread, what's the best polarised glasses for when you're course fishing? The season opens next week (12th March),and my current ones (Costco £20 ones that have lasted years), are scratched to hell now so was thinking of getting a new pair...... Any ideas thanks..??
  17. This is ours when the wood won't fit through our processor....
  18. Do you have a tractor in the first place?? That will open options for a mounted splitter, or it may have to be a 'power pack' powered splitter??
  19. What's going into it's place, concrete??
  20. Looks like it's been butchered somewhere in the past, poor thing....
  21. Just use a standard chain and sharpen as you go. Doesn't sound like you're cutting 'dirty' wood so no need to splash out me thinks. That what's I'd be doing.
  22. I'd leave it as is. Our processor is hooked onto a 210hp Case tractor. It's only ran at 420rpm, (through the 1000 pto gearbox so the tractor's just above tickover), so you hear the pump and tractor tone change when it's under load. I'd rather have that, than it going at the full 540, so when it gets loaded the tractor doesn't 'give in' and keep banging out full power at 540rpm and damaging / wearing out something early...
  23. Got mine from Cromwell Tools. Can't remember the make though. Got it for doing the centre hub nuts on our caravan, and they needed IICRC - 300Nm...
