  1. Lol. I will. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  2. I'm not going to cut or drill anything, don't worry! It just looks like the pegs want holes to slide into, but I am convinced that it's all ok, thanks to pics online and words here. The visor fits fine. It's good, actually. I might wear it to the shops in a minute! Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  3. Yeah. I think I will. Thanks all. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  4. This pic shows a petzl vertex vent with MSA HPE ear defenders. The 'arms' of the ear defenders slide into the slots in the helmet correctly, but don't lie flat against it. There are two cylindrical protrusions, you can just about see in the pic that rest against the side of the helmet and hold the top part of the arms away from the helmet shell. They look as though they expect there to be matching holes on the helmet shell to accept them. Is it correct as it is, or should I drill holes in the helmet? !? That doesn't sound right! Maybe the little cylindrical 'pegs' should be nipped off? What do people think? I hope the pic appears on the post.... Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  5. Interesting. .. Thanks. .. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  6. Excellent pic! Looks big enough to pull the trailer itself. I've had cars about thirty horsepower! Do you reckon, as OldMillTC said, that more power would have helped, or was it simply that you did all the work alone? Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  7. How powerful is that machine, then? It's enormous. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  8. Sounds perfect! Is it raining? Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  9. Do you own a stumpgrinder at all? Perhaps something smaller! ? Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  10. That was a hired machine, was it? You don't own and run that yourself? Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  11. I am keen to learn more interesting things, but I need work while I learn, or the bank will take my house away. .... Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  12. How much would you have paid me to do it instead of you? [emoji3] Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  13. Interesting. So your evidence would suggest that telling punters that grinding is possible/available is more than half the battle of creating the grinding work. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  14. As richy b suggests, quick startup is interesting. Also, I don't mind traveling around, but with young kids there are lots of days when it helps to start a little late or finish early. Cheshire to Edinburgh to Dublin seems like quite a trek, hertswood! I am not gonna make it home in time for kids swimming from that trip. Was there really no one closer when those scots and irish customers came calling? Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
  15. Do arb guys and girls tend to have their own stump grinders, or hire them? Or hire someone who comes and does the grinding on their behalf? I presume that the machines take quite a bit of looking after? Servicing, and cleaning off fungal spores and the like? I wonder if folks like to subcontract stump grinding so they don't fill their days servicing hydraulic machines. Sent from my GT-I9195 using Tapatalk
