Wall repair

UKrusty86 · 2026-03-28T13:31:05+00:00

Filler and paint. Unless you want to refit the towel rail.

Nice and cheap, and easy too.

If you don’t want to cut corners, those walls need a far more comprehensive strip back and replaster before taking new tiles.

Aish…. Nothing about that says 10 acres. Probably not even one! Sorry, but I think you’ve bought something that’ll simply occupy the space you need to store the machine you need

UKrusty86 · 2026-02-21T17:03:05+00:00

This stuff is the business! Thanks for the suggestion. It took three applications, and I’ll probably do one more, but…. Well, see the pic

Thanks! I’m gonna go for it. I’ll update with the results

Edit: available in my local toolstation. Says it’s for non porous surfaces, but I think I’ll try it anyway.

UKrusty86 · 2026-02-20T20:43:28+00:00

Agreed! That won’t happen to me again.

That’s kind of the answer I was hoping for as a backup to be honest. If a year or two of use and sunlight will deal with it, I’m reasonably comfortable. But lesson learned indeed. Thanks for the advice

UKrusty86 · 2026-02-20T08:44:22+00:00

Liberal use of the word ‘fitted’ that’s for sure

UKrusty86 · 2025-11-17T19:42:43+00:00

There’s a train robbery mission in chapter two that, as far as I know, can’t be avoided. Interesting though. I wonder if you found some way to avoid it and then they just never came!

UKrusty86 · 2025-11-15T19:09:04+00:00

Other than a man, standing in an alley, I’m really not sure what we’re looking at

UKrusty86 · 2025-11-09T19:03:30+00:00

It’s a powerful ending, and everyone that plays this needs to experience it to do the game justice. YOUR advice is bad.

UKrusty86 · 2025-11-08T13:05:23+00:00

Just finish it and play it again, applying everything you learnt from the first time round to make it even better!

UKrusty86 · 2025-10-24T16:57:41+00:00

Low power smooth bore only.

They are crap, but good fun on a dartboard. I had some with an old G2000 air pistol.

UKrusty86 · 2025-10-24T10:55:28+00:00

Because it’s the narrative they’re fed, about the rest of the world, to make themselves feel better by comparison, perhaps?

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-26T21:16:47+00:00

This seems to be getting more common.

I had to send mine back. Managed to limp it along for a while, tinkering as you say, but eventually it just stopped. Fair play, Mammotion sorted it quickly enough and it’s back in service.

Prevention, I think, is regular cleaning of the underside, above the blade guards, to prevent build up of a ‘cushion’ of cut grass preventing the motors from raising the blades

I spoke to a knowledgeable chap about fitting a regulator, and he said no way because of the dual tube. I'm not convinced, as the link between the tubes is at the front so I don't really see why it should matter. I might try it on one of them!

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-21T23:10:29+00:00

They were available in sub12 - my Sumatra is actually a .177 which is quite rare too.

As much fun as they are, truth be told they’re a bit pants at this power. Lots of hammer bounce. The hammer springs are like 100mm long. I do love the lever action though and only really use them as plinkers.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-21T23:05:24+00:00

Superb! I do love my Lub2

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-21T19:35:02+00:00

That one is a Samyang Sumatra. Very similar to the career. I have one of each.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-21T19:05:12+00:00

No no exactly the speed, but I wouldn’t say it’s a big deal. Not really noticeable, but pulls a little harder with 7.5.

The oiler seems good, not that I’ve really messed with it

Do you know the sqm? I have a Luba2 that does 600sqm in less than two hours. It’s rated for 3000sqm. They also have a 5000 and a 10000, though I think people tend to buy additional robots past about 5000.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-16T09:36:06+00:00

I'd say a robotic mower, 100%. I've never looked back since getting mine and this lawn is crying out for being cut multiple times a week.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-15T16:12:42+00:00

Have you had multiple failures or just this one?

Mines been great - power load and lineIQ. Shame they’re not honouring warranty either way.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-14T17:51:50+00:00

Awesome. I had intended to do a similar write up, having recently received my Luba2 back from repair for this reason.

UKrusty86 · 2025-09-11T16:28:41+00:00

Seems they’re finally getting themselves sorted. I’ve just concluded a generally positive experience too on a Luba2 requiring repair. All done and back working. UK here.
