Hi. I am sick fed up for putting in wooden posts and them rotting at ground level working 10 year. Strainers are proving to be a nightmare. Thinking about using metal posts and possibly strainers. I have a source for steel pipe I can use for strainers but open to ideas as it may be better...

Hi, I have a used Joskin TR555 CH6 topper that just won’t stop eating belts. I think the belts might be the wrong type but struggle to find info on what should be on it rather than what was fitted when I bought it. I just replaced like for like but they seem a tad tight and I feel like the...

Bit of a random question but hopefully somebody can help. I have a bit of an issue with the treads on a few of the studs on my old Griffith drop side trailer. I can’t really have it in bits for ages waiting on parts so was hoping somebody could identify the correct studs so I can order them and...

Had the machine from new and it’s always been spot on. It’s had a new battery about 6 months ago and it’s starting and charging fine on that front. Every so often it’s not starting. If you mess about with the controls and rattle things a bit it sometimes starts. Other times you need to come back...

We have both a telehandler and tractor etc and I have been looking for a larger cement mixer. Around 1 cub. Been looking at pan mixers and bucket mixers. Got a loader for the tractor too so could use any off them but wonder what people find better. Not will be used for founds and concrete got...

We have been mulling this over for a number of years now and have decided to go ahead and develop the area that has the old farm house and a number of old small sheds on it. The area is just over 0.85ha (2.1 acres) and we should be able to get 5-10 good sized homes and its not going to impact...

We have been mulling this over for a number of years now and have decided to go ahead and develop the area that has the old farm house and a number of old small sheds on it. We should be able to get 5-10 good sized homes and its not going to impact our farming operation. I have been through the...

Hi, I have spotted a bit of kit I like the look of and the price seems good. I was wondering if anyone has used them as they are miles away form me and I don't have the time to make the trip so would be buying without a visit. Not normally something I'd do but for the price of the machine and...

I’m not sure if I’m alone in this but I hate shopping for machinery. I enjoy the looking and everything about it except trying to get prices. It’s always a game of who you are and how you get on with the dealer etc. If you ever find a list price it’s nothing like what anyone pays and prices are...
