Maybe not too deep but you need to push it in a little. The prongs are very robust on this one, no fear of damage as long as you push it in straight and pull directly out.

I know, it’s a nightmare. 😂 If you could buy a wheel and tyre complete, that’s the option I’d recommend.

Thanks for the words of encouragement. The mower is, sadly, at the bottom of the list of priorities. My primary aim is to keep it running and finding time to cut the grass (over 0.5 acres of grass). The poor little HF1211 was designed for a nice manicured lawn, not our mole-ridden bump-fest of a garden 😂 In the latest video I change the front tyre. What an effort!😢

@@Himoutdoors I had to put a tube in one of my front tires before I could use mine and There won't be a next time. What a PITA that was. from now on I'm going to the store and buying a tire on the rim for 45 dollars, it's worth it. As I write this, I noticed now the other tire is now flat...lol...off to the parts mower I go cus it has one front tire still holding air. I have an acreage and my Husqvarna 2042 is not cut out for this either but it's all I got for now. Keep them videos coming they are awesome.

North facing, but gets a lot of light. The latest room is in Eddy which is a green version, similar tone to the borrowed lights blue. I’ll post a video. Really difficult to show on video as it always changes the colours.

The door will open slightly as the machine blow dries the contents into the room, and a little beeper goes off to tell you it’s finished.

Tools tools tools. If I added up how much I spent on tools… Luckily CA use a lot of standard off the shelf parts from the big guys so hopefully wear items can be sourced, but I agree, no support whatsoever after you purchase. Hopefully the non-moving bits last longer. In our modern age of Alexas and HomePods, hifi separates are really out of favour. I expect you could build an audiophiles dream for spare change. Even charity shops won’t accept CDs, so we may be at a bottom in that regard. I’m hanging onto my CDs not just for posterity, but as a rite of passage for my children - my opinion of my parents increased substantially when I discovered their record collection. They were young and cool once, too…

@@Himoutdoors I still have my CDs, but I can see why they are going out of fashion. A CD has a storage capacity of 700MB. If you get a scratch on it, it sometimes won't play. The plastic jewel cases break all the time. And now, you can get a 256GB USB drive you can hold in the palm of your hand. That's 365 CDs worth of data. With one exception (Alpine), most car CD players I've had failed. Cassette tapes in cars were more reliable. I am thinking of going to a network storage drive for all my digital music. But I do still own and use a turntable!

@@southerner66 I love it that you still play records. I have some vinyl but no turntable. One day, I’ll set it up. Maybe I’ll build a garden room for my musical instruments and put in a proper sound system!

It’s not there….unbelievably!

If you can source another 851C for spares you might be able to replace the whole CD transit mechanism? Probably fairly cheap spares and repair out there… providing the cd transit still works….good luck!

Yeah sounds like the belt is perished and slipping. Try that first and see if it improves things. Greasing will only make it worse. You want grip, not slip! 👍🏻

@@Himoutdoors Thanks for the reply I will try that 👍🙏

Hi, second had cars are bad enough, but second hand mowers 🫣 Have a look here: www.motoculture-jardin.com/forum/upload/_other20202/1625816522_HONDA-HF-1211-Manuel-d-atelier-pdf

@@Himoutdoors its not unusual here 😀 thank you for the link mate

My kitchenaid says Made in USA. It’s a 5KSM150. St Joseph, Michigan, USA. Kenwood are good, I agree. Not much between them, I guess it depends on what you like the look of. If I were to buy again I’d get one with a fixed head where you lift the bowl up to the head. Tilt head mixers get wobbly too quickly and need adjusting too often IMO. Also stainless steel mixer parts, of course! 🤓

All good, the speed wobble has gone. And there I was blaming the tyre fitter for not balancing the wheel properly….😬

No, you let it build up energy for the next spring harvest. If you harvest beyond June, you weaken the plant, and it won’t last 20 years.

Good engineering Honda. That engine will outlast the rest of the machine. Bullet proof!

Glad it was helpful!

Glad it was helpful mate! Even if you could find someone to work on it, how do you get it to them? Actually I need to take the flywheel off again as I think the magneto needs replacing. Hot starts are an issue. I have a magneto in the shed somewhere but where I put it, I have no idea….

Great advice! I now keep the door open, don’t use kindling but a couple of extra firefighters.

No problem!!

Merci, et a vous aussi!

I think it was £160 for 1.2m3. £80 after refund.

Ps! Good advice from another reviewer we are now following ..never place Sky box on top of CD player.. the heat causes the belt to corrupt. Probably obvious to non f*wits

She’ll be pleased to hear that. Quite the clever clogs!

It’s not difficult, but it’s a big heavy car with a lot of ground clearance, and when you jack it up, it (unhelpfully) thinks it’s off road and it tries to keep the wheels on the ground by lowering them even more. The best thing to do is take out the air suspension fuse which stops this happening. Get yourself a 3 tonne jack and jack stands (I got mine from Clarke) choose a jack with over 520mm of lift and get pumping! These cars are not difficult to work on. Brakes are easy peasy, like most modern cars. There’s a technique to adjusting the rear brake shoes, again plenty of videos on TH-cam about those. As long as you jack up on the frame rails or the front crossbeam, it’s easy to get the jack stands in there. Good luck!

No noise but very noticeable vibration. I know some do start knocking. It depends how worn out the rubber bush is and how notchy the universal joint.

Probably. If they use the same cd transit. Best open it up and have a look at the mechanism to check. Remember to unplug first!

OK yes Open and Look also thank you ! I have a really funny tray :-)

Certainly was. I will not use the guy again, and I reported him to the standards company and told them they might want to do more testing of his product.

Thanks for your experience, really helpful. I agree about the timbre of the wood when you knock it together. It resonates. I’m a relatively newcomer to seasoning and burning wood so always happy to learn more tricks. We have a 1 acre garden with plenty of trees which need work so always wood about to season and burn. The moisture meter may not be accurate, but it is more scientific than nothing. What I have found makes the biggest difference is covering the wood to protect from rain and snow. If you do this you can store wood outside and give it long enough and it will season. Thanks again!🙏

Hi mate any chance you have a couple of photos ?

@@Softailricho Sadly I haven't, but if you can bear with me I'll pull it apart and upload a video

@@SoftailrichoHi, I've just uploaded a video, I hope you find it helpful 👍

@@JFX69 Hi mate thank you the video was very helpful.

That’s because it’s not there! Glad to help.

No brainer as far as I can see. When I got the manifold off, the rear bolt was loose. Obvious to see why once the bolt is removed. There aren’t any threads left…..😂

Well this guy is a local, small scale producer but his product is poor quality. So it’s not just about size. There is another local provider which has very high quality firewood which I would use again. Woodsure need to sort themselves out, otherwise it’s another useless standard that doesn’t mean anything.

@@Himoutdoors I'd agree. They need to sort out quality issues, monitoring for the end users and issues with the 'chilling' effect on artisan suppliers. Currently Woodsure is half-baked.

Yes but it’s worth having a set on standby because if nobody changed them before, they might look like mine did!

@@Himoutdoors I always keep some odd nuts n bolts for exactly that reason

BMW uses one time use aluminum stretch bolts, don’t say anything if you don’t know what you’re talking about

Yes, it can be disabled. Have a look in the manual. It does help to dry your plates and glasses though…..

Thanks 😁 glad you liked it!

Thanks. Here in the UK most log burners are 5kW and pretty shallow, just for keeping the sitting room cost rather than heating the whole house, so a 10” log is pretty standard. Mine are a mixture depending on what the tree guys chopped up 🤭. I try to be more consistent when cutting as it helps with stacking. Whereabouts are you based?

@@Himoutdoors I’m in Wisconsin

@@outdoorsinthe608 looks like you have a similar climate to the UK…. It’s -2C here at the moment but it’s normally not this cold thanks to the jet stream. I’ve subscribed to your channel too! Have a Good Friday!

@@Himoutdoors it’s been really cold here this week! Awesome thank you👍👍

It’s actually a woodworking tool, gift of my father. 😂

I’m doing mine in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned. There’s an air filter but no oil filter. Take the cover off and you need two spanners. One to hold it and one to crack the drain plug.
