  1. Nice looking sheeps face in that last picture from your sycamore [emoji207][emoji106]
  2. Yeah, last one i did was on a 2014 model, fit a machinetec carb of ebay, think genuine was about £80 if memory serves and ebay one was £20 odd.
  3. Worn accelerator piston in carb is another
  4. I’ve had symptoms you described on 2 181’s, one then got worse and started to have an unstable idle, raced up and down a bit along with the “bogging” fitted a new inlet manifold and that cured that. The other was a dodgy coil.
  5. Christ! You struggle with a tuna butty then! [emoji6]?
  6. Strong pva mix or sbr bond is the key to that before hand [emoji6][emoji106]
  7. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] can plaster, but can’t render! ?‍♂️ get scratch coat on no bother, but top coat.... just rolls on me and drops off! Whether i play with it too much or what i dunno?!.... my mates opposite though, can render all day long but cant plaster! Strange eh!!
  8. Lot tougher on folks over there! They go inside for dropping litter! [emoji15]
  9. Not arb related but got home and skimmed a wall up in the man cave this aft with some 4 month out of date multi finish plaster, bonded it up yesterday! Kids still got it! [emoji6][emoji108]
  10. Typical price out there is R21,000 ish, so basically £1000, put some duty and delivery coin on top and tbh i think you still have a fair priced saw [emoji106] I know a frequent visitor to cape town so could ask him to pick one up as a favour, working around this covid shite obviously.
  11. It is what it is, offer the saw for sale at what you want for it, but explaining the facts regards warranty. It’ll have to be treated like any second hand item even though it is “as new”. They’re typically £900-£1000 new, so if its unused but has warranty void..... you’ll lose the vat off it straight away which puts you in to the £700-£800 bracket, then prob take hundred off it for loss of warranty, leaving you at £600-£700 bracket, i’d be thinking £650 is a fair price. Only you can decide.
  12. Been non stop since 11pm last night! Put stoppers on todays plans [emoji36] so its either..... bonding some more walls in the man cave..... or housework......... [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848] errrrrmm........... i’ll be off outside then in to my
  13. Any links to show how to buy if you can? I can only see products and specs, no options to buy? Or prices shown either ?‍♂️
  14. Try Chris at northwest hydraulics at blackburn, cant think of any one any nearer to ya Chris, unless there is anyone skipton/keighley way but i’m not familiar over that area

  16. Some of my indian flags have that staining on from out of the pack new, i just put it down to a small content of already existing ore being in them from when they were formed. After all they are a sedimentary rock to start with
  17. Yeah bro!.... and it’ll still “rip like a mother f***er!” [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
