    Tanker puncture

    I did a puncture on our tank a few months ago, getting the tyre off was surprisingly easy, its the inner tube thats the problem. Its ridiculously tight to pull it over the rim, then when you put it back on the tube has to be in exactly the right place or it will twist the valve off. Having a...

    John Deere 578 problems wrapping

    Got rid of my 578 years ago but the only net it would work with was Tama edge to edge. Even with that I still had some problems but it was the best stuff. Had to keep putting talc on the rubber roller aswell.

    Basic slatted pig fattening shed

    Yes weve nearly gone out of pigs here but it worked well, our main fattening sheds were partly slatted then covered concrete block walled pens inside the shed they used to lie in. Theyd keep the pen clean 90% of the time. With fibre cement sheds and yorkshire boarding you need a covered pen...

    Froment generator repairs

    Finally got to looking at the generator with winter almost here, think this diode is faulty, with the multimeter it reads .576 one way and .420 the other way.
