    Sand dispenser, belt or spinner, for sand?

    Our Ag dispenser is belt, just blown the auger motor, which we’d upgraded a few years ago to deal with sand. The belt also has bearings whenever we replace the belt, but is really fast on fresh sand, as I removed the slide years ago. Thinking of keeping this one as a spare and getting a new one...

    Autocommand, no screen, no drive.

    T6 autocommand, stopped moving in field, screen black, engine running, stops and starts. Likely a plug? But where?

    Tensulator

    https://fencefast.ca/cdn/shop/products/550x363_550x.jpg?v=1632375540 Used these years ago, quite liked them, but had a problem that wire would work out of them when blown by the wind. Anyone used them recently to see if they’re better. Have used plastic eggs, but the ht wire snaps.

    Separating slurry with a vibrating screen.

    Flat face coupling or not!

    Why can't I couple up to these, collar won't slide up, despite no pressure in pipes? Even putting a male fitting with no pipe in, tapped down, no joy

    Sand, bedding, slurry storage quandary.

    We need extra slurry storage for the imminent slurry regs in Wales. Planning for a lagoon, most likely lined has been obtained. Currently we have sand cubicles, the slurry produced enters a concrete pit via a sand channel, the pit is 140’ long, 45’ wide, channel is at the opposite end to the...

    Lidl Veg

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-62659393 A good move to integrate non cosmetically perfect veg, but unsure of why a price adjustment is needed in a shortage.

    Weidemann 5080T, altering rollback angle.

    We need more crowd. Is it simply adjusting the stops, or does the electric safety monitor (PITA) need something doing to it? When unloading straw , just cannot tilt it enough to secure the bales properly.

    Openreach pole issue

    We have a phone and fibre line, well just phone now, at a low height over our yard. Straw lorry dragged the fibre down a while ago, not overly concerned as we have free dish broadband. Anyway, I’d like the pole moved, as it’s a safety hazard if another vehicle snaps the phone line, plus we’re...

    Parlour pit matting

    I’ve had matting in the pit a few years, it’s made a big difference to comfort and foot ache, but has never lasted. Being dubious initially of the benefits I bought some cheap tiles off eBay, initially good, then went flat and lifted. Replaced again, about a year, same thing. Put some rubber...
