do it as well as you can,but learn to do it better
tell me moreThey do kits to remote control cetops. On off only no proportional. But should be fine with a winch

this is bloody cheap considering it's a cetop 5, with manifold and the radio control system tooThat’s what I meant - have done a hydraulic winch (well, my auto electrician did with a cheap kit from eBay!) and also set up a radio control on a pto chipper (which was a more costly affair but not too difficult). As said, not proportional though.
ah right ... the bloke with the gold plated Kub?, is it? -- with every bell whistle and automatic nose picker fittedI think @Furniss is thinking about someone else, not on here, who does post videos on facebook, unless I’ve got the wrong end of the stick![]()

@JD450A it's Photoshop timesome more bits for part 1 ......
View attachment 63825 ... and some for 'part deux'View attachment 63824
then some very tricky fabbing ... getting these pins to align (and stay aligned) is not an easy task with the amount of heat getting thrown at 'em - 1" pin in a 1" hole - has to be perfect - and square
View attachment 63823
but succeeded - very nicely..
4 yokes ready for installation

these bits were a bit easier, other than keeping them square

went together sweet

those edges are getting flatted off and a.n. other lug attached, half an' half, so'll get consolidated with that

VERY time consuming, fiddly bits .. only way of getting the welds in that 16mm gap was a stick ... just as well with the bloody wind again today
our regular posty turned up after lunch with these ...
have annihilated all my 'stock' and twenty was only a couple of quid more than ten, so no brainer to take two boxes

..... and told him the story of the *rick who delivered the last package to the holiday let a mile away, that I had to go and find--didn't surprise him, he'd heard a few similar stories this morning
a.n.other purchase yesterday in Aldi ..... only colour they had...
unlikely to stay this way for long
see 'em advertised last week in one of their email flyers and wanted a grey pair, but as these were all they had - "beggars can't be ....", etc.
bluetooth and work brilliantly - got close on 1000 of my fave tracks on my phone -- made mowing the grass a lot more pleasurable last night, after tea and the saw time today was a lot better than just stood there, listening to the band saw plough its way through a dose of 100 x 12 & 40 x 12 flats

They exceeded expectations dramatically TBH - very comfortable, cheap enough not to worry about and cancel a massive amount of background noise out -- as good as, if not better than defenders/muffs.
Can't wear 'em with me mask though
Must try them with my Nederman reactive, which i don't tend to use a lot - big fan of my old skool 'nod down'![]()
you realise you've spoilt the surprise for lancs ladA trebuchet I reckon! What is my prize?!?!
Sorry, I can’t help but say what I see!!!you realise you've spoilt the surprise for lancs lad![]()
Edit my quote in your post above, he will be none the wiser!
steady but slow progress ...
got the red lump out the way first ...
View attachment 63870 it hadn't gotten any lighter... but hand ball-able -just
set up the first yoke ... these have got to be bang on for part deux ..
View attachment 63869
seem to have forgotten to take pix today, but was concentrating on getting these yokes right ...
cut some braces and got them in situ ... chose some 50 x 50 x 6 RSA, in case I need to notch it at all, but eyeballed the red bit first, 'fore it came out and should clear with a few mil. to spare
the need for the braces will become apparent at a later stage of the game ... having stood looking/thinking about it later after tea, I think I'll pop a few more gussets/stiffeners in a couple of other places tooView attachment 63868
got this far when the 'bell' tolled ...
came back after tea and gave it all a good clean off and rounded off all the 'sharps' ...
and made sure the 70s' d still slip in and out fine ... zero distortion today then... they're slightly longer than they needed to be -- but standard length to fit in everything else, so made sense to leave 'em long, rather than lose 15mil for the sake of it

Seeing the way the Drema arm is sitting and seeing the lugs you have glued on your creation I think I can see yer plan. If I’m right you have a few more weeks work ahead of you.
Sod the faffing get the deutz finished firstyou realise you've spoilt the surprise for lancs lad![]()
strange you should say that ... was looking at the broken crank pulley Friday, thinking must get it off and try to effect a repair, sos's I can fill it with oil and see about running it upSod the faffing get the deutz finished first![]()
