Cordless chainsaws
(Preview)
With the influx of battery tools now making a huge impact, I started to look at some alternatives to take with me on trips. I was scoffed at (initially) when I mentioned at my 4X4 club about cordless chainsaws. In spite of this, I bought an Ozito el cheapo 20v and when we needed to clear a track, I pulled out...

Fuel selector knob hard to turn
(Preview)
I have recently replaced the fuel selector knob on my Electrolux fridge, however it is a bit hard to change fuel selection without using a bit of oomph. I`m worried I will be up for another knob real soon if this keeps up. Can someone tell me what is the best way to get the thing moving more freely.

I have been reading stories on this site for some time and am always amazed at the varying opinions. I thought I'd put my two bob's worth in and have a say. Six months we spent on our trip and I am happy to re...

So caravan parks think they have won the battle to more or less eliminate free camping in tassie, then they are sadly mistaken as they will lose the war. I call for a boycott of Tasmanian caravan parks. If a boycott means that caravan parks go out of business, well so be it. They are the ones who have bought...
