  1. There's lots of motorbikes out there with engines not matching the frames. It devalues them, but doesn't mean they're all stolen. I'd just take the seller for his word, unless some other information comes to light
  2. That's plausible. Does it look like the chassis has been replaced? I suppose it must've been. Can't think of any other reason the numbers don't match.
  3. If it wasn't for the photographi evidence, i was wondering whether the thread was a wind up. Can I borrow this pic for my next health and safety seminar? Peter, I hope you've learnt something here. It might be hard if your father in law dominates most things, but that's your site. I'm sure you'd be horrified if the next old fella your working for picks up the big saw and fires it up. Its no different really.

    190 not working

    There's a sensor that ensures you can't start it with the chute up. See pic. Ignore red arrow. The little bolt (black circle) It can get dirty or need adjusting to make connection. Might not be that at all. But worth checking
  5. Now, is it brake away or break away? Both sort of make sense
  6. No first hand experience, but I've heard it's very strict. Have you considered selling everything and buying new on arrival? Don't know if you've had cloggers previously, but I think clogger zero are great.
  7. Id deal with it the same way you did.
  8. Plus a load of paperwork!
  9. Lot 48. Hydraulic chainsaw! Well I never!!
  10. Yes. Before one of them puts themselves through it!

    I won't ask what you googled to find that!

    Have to see a photo bollocko, to give an accurate assessment.
  13. Is it the parking warden?
  14. Take it you're from wirral. Do you remember Bob Marley playing Deeside Leisure Centre 1980?

    Depression

    Sorry to hear this eggs. I thought something might be up going on your recent posts. Have you got someone to talk to? I don't necessarily mean a professional. A mate, someone you trust, that will listen. They won't have the answers, but it will help you to find the answers and work your way through it. You say there's no specific reason for your depression. The worst kind, because hardest to address. Talk to someone if you can mate. You may be surprised at what comes out of it.
  16. Never in the history of calming down, has anyone calmed down by being told to calm down 🙂
  17. Just watch 'The Apprentice'. That's what you are dealing with.
  18. Are you anywhere near Ellesmere Port? Elite Grindings.
  19. Know what you're saying stubby, but shouldn't have to.
  20. Looking at it long term, they will be 60ft trees, with just the main stems screening the flats and the crown of the tree above your line of vision. As suggested, maybe consider replanting some sort of hedge.
  21. It's interesting you say it was OK to start with. The condition of the blade and particularly, that gap, are never going to produce good chip. Also, that bluntness and gap doesn't look like it's happened overnight. Unless something has moved!! Have you checked nuts and bolts? I've only ever hired a big chipper once. When I returned it, I had to wait whilst the shop opened it up and checked the condition of every wear part. A bit of a pain at the time, but on reflection, assuring.
  22. Properties of a good knot. Easy to tie. Easy to untie. Doesn't damage the rope. Serves its purpose. That's what I was taught, anyway
  23. THIS ADVERT HAS EXPIRED!

  24. Hi. No. Not with arborisk, anyway. When I was looking, one company offered a policy which related to the amount of earnings. If you don't mind handing your books over and other information they are asking for. I stayed with arborisk in the end. Its due again soon, haven't had the renewal quote yet, so I may be looking into it again shortly. I take it you're in a similar situation. Let me know if you find anything and I'll do the same 👍
  25. Just had a look at them. Do you climb/spike in them?
