That would be a job for a qualified professional I feel.

If you lubricate a fastener that had a torque setting calculated for a dry thread, then you will end up with much more tension than the designer intended. Possibly to a dangerous level. The principal behind lubricated fasteners is that they are more consistently tensioned, as in cylinder head studs etc. The torque setting being adjusted for a lubricated thread.

And with a taper seat it must be like driving a splitting wedge in there.

Dry grinding of highly stressed heat treated steel can produce stress cracks caused by local grind burns. Even a Queens flight helicopter was brought down by such a fault in the main rotor shaft.

Characters like this don't help. He treads the cover down at the edge to get some water on top, then treats himself to a bath.

You shoot pheasants with a .308. Wow.

The instruction when assembling engines etc. was to lightly oil threads before applying the torque to the fastener, this to prevent seizure and a false reading.

Pool + trees=Work A debris cover works to a small extent, however the wind will lift it up and insert all the debris straight into the pool. With a solar cover all the rubbish just blows to the edge and then into the pool. I get willow and Oak blown in from all directions, none of which overhang the pool.

I agree about the survey, the danger is if there is any pre-existing damage that you can end up carrying the can for.

I have had a Stiga Park President for well over five years and it easily copes with three acres of lawn. However with a wet spring the grass can beat it, making it necessary to bring my trusty Kubota F2400 into play. The Kubota uses a fraction of the (diesel) fuel than the petrol Stiga, The V-twin Briggs engine really gallops through it.

I just wondered about access, but if you are happy to leave the stump its of no consequence. It would be interesting to give it a bit of a tug, just to see what moves. (Probably the shed).

What is the other side of the fence?

With the saw blade, same as nails, barbed wire and anything else you haven't spotted

I'm scared to ask.

Changing bottom rollers on Drotts you became quite expert at burning bolts out of blind holes. With the small Sapphire torch it was quite a delicate job, mainly because you were on your back looking upwards.

That's the trouble with the Stiga, No balls

Just cut mine but it made my trusty Kubota 2400 cough a bit. The Stiga just choked up on it.

Heating oil £400 for a 1000 litres ten days ago £625 today, What's going on?

Cookie jar it is then.

I think railways are allowed red diesel and this will probably include infrastructure works.

Bird nesting?

I remember seeing the tractor in the barn. Be sure your sins will find you out.?

Include in the quote to dismantle, remove and replace one garage. Personally, with asbestos in the vicinity I would just walk away from it.

I meant doable on the Indian railway in the pic.
