Try making a handle. It's very satisfying to make something from scratch. The handle on the good billhook here started out as part of an ash log waiting to go on the fire.

I recall that when the f9p is generating rtcm messages, U center shows the Fix Mode as Time. It should also be able to view the messages being outputted, to confirm it is just rtcm messages, but I can't remember how to open the window showing that.

I wonder what a driverless tractor like that costs to buy and run compared to a conventional tractor and adapting it to run autonomously.

750 should be good, but 220 was all I could see in the links. Some people were trying to get agopengps running on a pi a few years ago. One of the issues was that a second hand toughbook was about the cheapest and readily available way to get a touch screen that was robust and bright enough.

It will be good to hear it you get on. My first instal of agopengps was before they had the option of PCBs and wiring up all the components like the IMU and ADC is a lot nicer with a board to plug them into. That "bright" LCD screen appears to be half to a quarter of the brightness of the...

You can use either a momentary normally open or a latching switch. As e3120 though, momentry switches allow you to conveniently have multiple switches and I found a foot switch to be much nicer than hand operated for most jobs.

For cleaning up studs in awkward places, I have used a socket that fits the die nicely and a stub of nail to peg the split in the die against the socket. We all have our limits though and I will leave trying an impact driver on that to people... As a way of working out who to never lend tools to.

I get the impression that fella probably tried to work out how he could harvest it with an aircraft too.

Chaviot is another option, though it's been a while since they were made and they only went up to 2000 litre. Being 2wd however is not an issue. Ours travels over soft land far better than a 4wd hydro sands. It has fair ground clearance for spraying OSR, but a belly sheet helps. The...

Kverneland are pretty good for downloading manuals from. https://download.kvernelandgroup.com/

Does the WWK make any difference to how much trash or long stubble they can drill through?

The field isn't near your house is it? I notice that happening in corner of one field by the house. My phone was switching back and fort between WiFi and 4g. Disabling the phone from using the house wifi, so it only used 4g, kept the correction age steady and low.

Will they actually last as long though as the push button radios from the 80s and 90s?

Main issue with reception seems to be the areal. Anything built into the roof is going to be a compromise and durable external areas seems to be even rarer than headings that have big buttons and no bling. The factory FM areal on the last JD here actually looks pretty good, sticking straight up...

Get a Japanese built vehicle and you will get used to 12mm and 14mm nuts.
