S&J Family tree WWW.TIMELESSTOOLS.CO.UK There used to be so many edge tool makers around, they gradually got bought up and amalgamated over time. I've seen other family trees like this one as well.

Nah, I think not Medlar.

Probably is cotonaster but maybe Medlar?

Remember there are only 3 real networks, Vodafone, O2 and EE (T-Mobile and Orange combined). Despite whatever bullshit they all come out with about ‘having their own network’. Shame we can’t follow the European model of just locking onto the strongest available network.

Have you tried different networks? At our house we don't get any reception from 3, poor reception from O2 but EE is workable but it's worse in the summer when the hedges leaf up and grow as they block the line to the transmitter. An external aerial on the end of a long pole helps. On a side note when we had long powercut a while back both our local phone masts also went down. As for Starlink, although the latency is better than old style satellites it might take a bit of getting used to as there will be a bit of a delay.

Not cleaned the top left yet so not sure of the maker. Clockwise from top, Elwell Yorkshire with handle by Elwell, red is Bulldog, then biped, elwell slasher , WS? , Skelton.

Thing is for Biden, I don't think any of the commentators here were trying to defend him. However he appeared to have a team around him who were willing and able to take charge and keep the US on a fairly even keel, and to contain any trouble he was making. Leadership might have been missing but nothing too mental was happening. The end of his time wasn't a scary time for the world. With Trump, he has surrounded himself with 'Yes Men' who are unable to keep him contained, eager to please the 'emperor with no clothes' (unable to talk frankly to him), and going along with all he says. US is not on an even keel at the moment. Any madness of Trump is straight out into the world, the stock markets are bouncing all over, his allies around the world have no idea how to react and this is leading the US to be slowly isolated (who were his friends in his billion dollar peace blag? list the 17 other world leaders there and you'll see none of the powerful nations were represented, isolated in his madness). Trumps time is a scary time for the world.

Bang on, had a rubber handle "tested to 20000 volts"! Made by Elwell

Yes, but I’d already have an Avant on site so there’d be an easier clear up.

Grindings look like they'd be easier to shovel too

Sounds about right. Why not do it yourself?

Hi, I have just taken one of my machines to get a Service and the shop booked it in for a full service. It has a newish 2023 Honda GX280, and they changed all the serviceable parts. They charged £65ph plus parts. In total, it came to £282.66 ex vat. I should have asked what extra they done, if anything other than just adding oil, replacing the filter, plug and a carb kit. Does the amount of time sound about right? I thought they may have stripped it down and properly gone through it for that money. My car doesn't cost that much. Thanks

You will have to call first to arrange drop off.

Can I have an ID on this please. On Rowan, higher mainstem.

First ones a Yorkshire pattern made by bulldog

The video shows it whooping the pants off a 35 hp laski, but of course it’s trying to sell the product.

I would love to oblige, but despite my best efforts with the search facility, I believe I have never mentioned Biden on this forum at all. If you are suggesting that I should have done, well in my humble opinion, he never approached Donald's level of danger.

Some escaped from a council owned petting zoo near where I lived in Lancashire, late 80’s. They survived some pretty harsh Winters and eventually settled in a privately owned woodland, where they multiplied and where noticed by the local poachers. They are pretty fast, but unfortunately, slower than a lurcher, they are all gone now.

Are they bringing them into Holiday Parks by the coach load?

so Trump got out of going to Vietnam ,coz his rich parents knew a doctor who signed Trump off with a bone spur.

I had a quote from a dealer in Bellac for the same saw, it came in at €1900 with the unit, charger and the bigger battery. I went and had a demo, first thing that struck me was the weight, it actually weighs about the same as my 572xpg. The performance was pretty impressive to be fair, certainly the best battery saw that I have used, the new large battery IS essential though. Unfortunately, gunning it through bar length hardwood sapped a fully charged battery in around the same time it took for the oil tank reserve indicator to flash on, so I would need at least 3 batteries and the ability to charge them to do a days cutting, I left with a 592xpg.

I know @justinkingwell rates them and there’s not many people demolish as many stumps as them

Just keep spending money on shite that doesn’t actually keep you dry then.

Converted the splitter today. It was a doddle, no drilling or grinding required, just had to rotate the valve rod 90 deg with a socket. Handle from Flowfit via eBay. IMG_0320.mov
