Winter slumber time out there in the part of the veg beds you can see in the pic...i get growing in ernest around March depending on the conditions. G house is a big + if you have space .
Toms and salad crops work better for me inside .
Are you familiar with the 5 gallon bucket method for growing tomatoes sorry 19 litres it's very space efficient no damage little to no insects i used to do it all the time.
Check it out instructions on the internet.

Dont worry...I am of a age that IMP and Metric was taught at school :).
Are you talking of..Ring Culture.. where you have a bottomless container filled with the growing medium and then sitting on sand /gravel ? .
Feed the top and water the bottom .

Only thing I have any come across was a "Alpina " weed whacker. Italian made brand but not that common at all here.
600i...not a rebranded Dolmar was it ?? or is that the 6000i

That's a bargain hard to pull a sickie (day off)

I'm running lead on this project. Taking a day off don't get me home any sooner. Every 1lb of weld I put in is 1lb closer to being done :)

I know Australia is rather large, but we had a exchange student from Australia. She was pretty funny. Can't remember exactly where now...

They are their own design italian professional design started in 1960 still in business rebranded as al-ko and others as well they used to make some very good pro saws trying to make coils up for mine.
What saws you run I've got stihls huskys dolmars echoes alpina and homelites lol use the husky 288 and echo 590 mainly same bar and chain setup.
