TBH, the client (a tenant) wasn't the problem I expected him to be but the environment certainly was. That's not all of it either, it was much larger than the video shows. Two oaks had sheds built around them. Every item was a precious artifact and had it's place, moving things clearly agitated the tenant, a man with an obsessive urge to collect stuff, though he coped with our intrusion and remained calm with his understanding landlord stood by to mediate in case it all got too much for him. From the roadside bollards to the plastic McF*ck ready to be swept aside or into sun bleached micro-fragments by branches being dragged. It will be the house clearance of the century when the time comes. Having glanced through the front door into the hell I assumed was the kitchen, I refused an offer of café, I had my own thermos for the team anyway. VID_20251211_124143.mp4

Andy the whole TDS thing is bewildering, we have so much shit going on here that needs sorting, yet the leftards get their flaps all tied up over Trump day in day out, or Grammar. Meanwhile the invasion continues, we crossed the 40000 mark today with 700 crossing the channel at £42k per year per head . No wonder you have taken the decision to pay your taxes in Norway only.

They should last the life of the machine. I give up on the Imp threaded joint in the car.

are you saying he gets more enjoyment from publishing his posts to the world than you do in reading them?

Judging by SP and his almost semi religious dredgings, I think it's more like their version of going to the chemist for the daily fix of methadone.

tableting a solid argument - in the queue for the Saturday night rave up

Think medication FFS. And even with your cut and paste googling, no they are most definitely not. It's just the usual story time dredgings from the internet, hopefully the BBC will become a subscription model and we won't have to hear regurgitated aunties lies and bullshittery.

are you being serious? "Tabling a solid argument" refers to effectively presenting a well-structured case backed by logical reasoning and credible evidence. The key to a strong argument is a clear claim supported by relevant and sufficient proof. To "table something" means to either propose it for formal discussion (UK/Parliamentary) or postpone discussion until later (US/General), creating opposite meanings depending on the region, though the UK usage refers to placing it on the agenda (the table).

You're correct, yes. Drive sprockets only have pitch, so same one for different gauge chains. Bar and chain match pitch and gauge. Not recommended to swap new chains onto old sprockets though, keep an eye on that. They wear together as a pair, so if you put a new chain on an old sprocket it will not make proper contact on the wear points and can mangle the chain, that's whether it's same gauge or not.

It's spelt "tableting"

they're tabling

This is something that matters to me, we've got trailed Bandit 75 atm and the build strength is next level compared to Forst and TW etc. Means that machine feeding it with the digger is no problem. I'd love a tracked 12xp Bandit but they're simply too big for a lot of the canal and wetland sites we work on (footpaths, tow paths etc) TP look nice

Battery post?

Wheel nuts?

Yeah, I’m definitely not contemplating sticking a smaller chain in a wider bar, but from what you’ve said (if I understand correctly) if the drive sprocket size is correct, and the bar and chain match, it’s all good, right?
-
The bar, chain and sprocket (spur or rim) must all match. A narrower drive link will draw through a wider channel but it can catch on the walls and it's not something I would recommend.

Don’t do that. Some future owner will need to replace them at some point and order the parts (imperial) from Bandit. Best case, they don’t fit and he has to twat around working out why. Worst case, he guns them in and buggers the threads again. The US deserved 9/11 and deserves all the rest for subjecting the world to the ongoing arseache of imperial threads. BIPM should invade them if they won’t give them up. Quiz: There’s one imperial threaded joint in every car. What joint is it?
-
Its bizarre. In their heads they must believe their tabling a solid argument.

No kidding Andy. Not even 6th form debate level garbage. SP/TA is the one needing a mental health evaluation.

Apart from a classic defender holds its value

Used to be able to do all manner of weird bar and chain combos ,until oregon hovered up alot of the brands . Main things the sprocket. Id have liked to put 0.43 on one of my saws but not sure if thats even possible!

Hello peeps, Now I’ve changed my bar & chain combo a few times to go longer and shorter, no issues. What I am curious about is whether I can fit a slightly different GAUGE bar & chain if the drive sprocket size matches the saw? For example can a 3/8 0.050 (1.3mm) bar and chain be swapped out for a 3/8 0.043 (1.1mm) bar & chain without issues? My mind tells me it should all work and would just require the bar stud nuts to come further down the threads to snug up the 0.2mm thinner bar. Am I missing something? 🤷♂️

yes, very much so
