    decking

    Christ more legs than a north sea oil rig!! on the bright side you could add a couple more stories to it!!
  4. it really doesn't matter the amount, process is the same. If he has just submitted it then you have time before the payment is taken anyway. Just call them.
  5. assuming you have the correct figure just pay it. If its already paid and they owe you either call HMRC and explain or net it off your next return. No drama really.

  7. A major plus you arb boys have is qualifying for aggricultural occupancy. Lots of smallholdings with a bungalow on built post war. Still need best part of 400k though in most areas south of brum.. Land, they dont make it anymore...
  8. different tool completely, only 5 seats for starters. Remember if your a nfu member you get an extra 5% off whatever price you haggle with the dealer.
  9. our council operates a free permit system. If you have a trailer (single axle only) or a van, signwritten or not, you HAVE to apply for a permit. Send the V5 and you get 20 tickets to last the year. Works fine.
  10. got a makita one in the end as its half the price of a stihl. going well so far.
  11. put 10 ton in that tiny tipper bed and it would flatten it.
  12. Wouldn't the chipper benefit from the feed chute being able to be angled up so the weight of the branches force it through as it seemed to stop a lot.

    Slogans

    driving through London a few years ago, this was on the side of a battered transit driven by a turban wearing gentleman. "you've tried the cowboys, now try the Indians"
  14. Thank her from us all from paying off the national deficit single handedly with the Benefit In Kind on a disco company car
  15. quite a few disco's out there with over 200k on the clock. used by the fake police wombles on the motorways. The only real difference on the old base models was no air suspension which is just crap. they still have EGR/park brake etc I use local garage to service and do routine stuff and no more expensive than the audi.
  16. ignore the above! Body doesn't have to come off to do belts etc I've had 4 of them all commercials and they are fine. Every motor gets a failure. Get a later model one. They make jap crap look like toys, and are effortless at towing.

    Laser Level

    We use pole and laser a lot for groundworks obviously. This digger mounted version looks bloody good and has potential to save a fair bit of manual labour checking levels. The fact you can move the digger around a site and keep the datum without getting out the cab is great.
  18. Our stihl cutter is slowly dieing. So looking to replace. As its on the building it gets abused non stop by the subbies. I did have a new husqvarana one on hire for a couple days and it was very good, dead easy start. They pretty dear to buy though and not sure how they will hold up on site. I see Makita have a new one as well with better specs than the stihl and for a good price. Any opinions from owners ? At last: a competitor for the mighty Stihl Cut Quick cut-off saw | Features | Construction News
  19. be lucky to carry your lunchbox in the back with single wheel.
  20. where do people buy in from, what's going rate for an arctic load ?
  21. Have a long run of fencing to do so looking at an auger. Quite a few brandless ones kicking about for 150 quid. It will get some abuse being on a building site so worth investing in a known make ? Any recommendations ?
  22. does look a nifty little machine but crazy money.
  23. does the barrow tip ? Price ?
  24. £40k used Multione 8.4S - Mini loaders, Price: £36,168, Year of manufacture: 2015 - Mascus UK
  25. It's out tomorrow, booked into a midnight screening at the local IMAX later. The original really kicked off the whole CGI in a big way, one of my favorite scifi movies. Fingers crossed this one is upto par!
