No, I'm not going to 'visit' someone :D

I need to remove an almond tree in the corner of my yard before I can install my pool. Wanna hack it down this weekend, so if anyone in Adelaide has one I can borrow, I'd be happy.

I've used chainsaws many times, so I'm not about to lopp off a limb. Plus I'll have the blades sharpened upon return, so you have it returned in better condition than borrowed.

Anyone?

:blink:

lol, you can tell Ruby is back coz there is already 3 new threads up :D

But serious, kennards hire?

Hoping to avoid having to hire one. Done so before and its expensive and the equipment breaks down. :blink:

I've got 3 trees to remove from my property, but I need to remove one tree now to put in my order for the pool, then hire a bobcat (to prepare the area for the pool).

If I can save a few $ by borrowing one, I'd be happy! :O

You got a problem with my whoring? :D

Roo, I've got one you can borrow on a "you break, you fix" policy :( ......................going to Villis Friday night?

EDIT: Also got a mate that runs a Bobcat business.

Thanks Pete, I'm keen on borrowing that chainsaw. You'll get it in better condition than how you lent it out :kiss: I think the missus has something on Friday night, so I'll get back to you on a time/place to collect.

Also interested in that mate of yours. Its a small job to skim about 10cm of turf from our back yard in an area approx 8m x 4m. I'm installing a pool which has T-bone type wall supports which are hidden the surface (hence the 10cm skimming).

:P

Hey Roo, have you forgotten who owned and ran a pool business for more than 10 years...... :(

I'm aware of that you nitwit :) I'm just wanting to remove the tree. This weekend we're going to organise delivery of the pool. Then I was going to harrass you into giving us a hand ;) I was just going to politely wait for a suitable time when you and Nene are having a better week.

;)

Nope. Still in one piece. hate to disappoint people :)

Bloody chainsaw wouldn't start :) Its got spark. Unplugged the lead and turned it over a few times, but can't see any evidence of fuel getting in there. I'm taking the lawnmower to the mower place tomorrow, so I'll have them check over your chainsaw too. Bloody home gardening crap :(

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
