Tools And Equipment

I'm really surprised, and disappointed, to hear that Hyundai haven't responded to you - I really thought better of them.Glad you are happy with the B&D (which to be fair is pretty much a given with their stuff), and hope it serves you well

thanks for all the advice

100% agree Tricoflex is more expensive to buy but will last and last. I got 2 huge roles of it over 25 years ago and it is still going strong. It gets run over by cars on occasions and is left out to use to fill horse's trough in the winter. I have used cheap hose in the past and it would last...

You need to screw the white piece into the timer before fitting to the tap. Then offer up the timer to the tap and turn in the direction shown below onto the tap thread. I found these instructions for another hozelock timer but should give you the general idea:

What might have caused it though we have an habit of pulling it out then stopping then doing more which probably hasn't helped it but we've had it 2yrs but otherwise mate still works well but he's going to look for something better to hold it, as I find unclipping the plastic hard.

I go for cheap, really cheap, like right out of the recycle bin. You really don't need anything fancy for hydroponics.

Get hold of a corporation type paving slab, drill holes in each corner of the box. Sit the box on top of the slab and mark the four holes through the box on the slab. Then with a masonry drill, drill the four holes in the slab. Put in the four polyplugs for screws. Buy some really wide washers...

Jiffy my hubby does it himself like you and also uses broom stems for many things

Great tool the bilhook. Comes in a variety of shapes. Yes! very easy to self inflict accidents with it until you get the balance of it. Fantastic when chopping/shaping stakes.Tools of yesteryear are still being used. Compared to some of yesterday that have passed their use by date.

Martin hubby as a grinder like yourself and they soon sharpen blades mate

The sun is the biggist killer of hose pipes and then people treading on them when lead on the ground

Makes a lot of sense clanless for all the reasons you gave I had 3 lawns once.....2 now....and for the very small 3rd one I used a hand push qualcast. It was ideal. That piece of grass has gone Now I use a Bosch cordless ....lightweight, very quiet, cheap, easy to use and stripes the grass.

It’s ok, the EU has agreed on the renewal of the 5 year licence and has a large backing from the U.K. Tuesday 28 November: CLA Rural Business Conference and Glyphosate - Defra in the media

Fork Spade Rake Good boots Good gloves Loppers Hand saw ( branches etc) Secateurs Good flask (or camping stove) Maybe a secure shed And a comfy deck chair (sit back and admire your work)

I had one i secured it to the decking with these.

I thought ChilliPepper and PolyHive were looking to chop fine and green waste?

That looks amazing for £45 . Reviews are very good as well . May not last as long as premium brands , but I'm sure you'll get at least 5 seasons out of it

I replaced my Hayter Harrier last year after over 18 years of reliable service. It needed a couple of spare parts over that time and these were easily available and fitted myself. I bought a much cheaper and lighter Mountfield which so far has worked OK but I can't see it lasting very long, the...

This is the wheelbarrow folks.CHASSEUR 90 Ltr

Welcome to the forum Ryan Some more knowledgeable folks than I am here who really know their mowers but, for me, battery power is the way to go. Quieter than petrol and no trailing cables as there are with electric models. My lawns are much smaller than yours....prob 10 x 15 m and a smaller...
