Almost as if something like a twig or chest ascender biner could get stuck in it and cause an uncontrolled descent?

Advertising and getting your name out there. I did not grow up where I live so do not have a network of contacts to start with so has taken a long time to establish myself. Cashflow is a problem for any small business. It still is for me now, very volatile income, I also farm which doesn't provide regular income, does however provide one thing you can rely on.. bills, endless

Please dont do that. Coils put out high voltage at reasonable currents. The HT wire should just pull out of the coil and the plug cap. Get a new length of wire and rotate as you insert it. Plug caps can be a bit of a pain - squeze the rubber until the metal pin is roughly in the centre then jam it in whilst rotating.

There is a crack in the insulation of the wire going from ignition coil to the engine on my Maruyama hedgetrimmer. It will start when engine covers are off but wont start with covers on, spark grounding off the metal engine via the crack in the wire. When i hold the wire in my hand and pull the hedgetrimmer over i can feel the electric pulse in my hand. I removed the ignition coil and the wire has a heatshield on it, crack is under the heatshield. The wire doesn't seem to be removable from the ignition coil itself, seems to be glued in or moulded in even, and the end which attaches to the sparkplug is moulded onto the wire. Do I have to get a new igniton coil or is there a trick of the trade for removing it from the coil so I can replace it.

Brilliant album that one. The man, Jim Morrison, was a legend. Died well before his time.

Ah, maybe.

Finding work, and that can be an issue even after 30 years.

I’m doing a bit of informal research around arborists moving into sub-contracting or starting small tree businesses. For those who’ve made the jump (or are thinking about it): What was the hardest part in your first 6–12 months — outside of the climbing itself? Quoting, pricing, finding work, admin, cashflow, insurance, compliance, something else? Genuinely interested in real experiences rather than textbook answers Thanks

About 50 years minimum that they know about without looking for more .

Savero

Wikikipedia, BP, World Oil forums and so on suggest otherwise though. I think Norway knows exactly how long their oil will last and even if they are extracting more and more, that does not mean they have suddenly invented an oil creation machine though...

Accepting any soft/ hard logs

Thanks, which brand are these ? I've tried expanding the image but can't read the details.

it clearly is dwindling, but by how much? As of 2026, humanity has used approximately 35–40% of total estimated recoverable oil resources, leaving roughly 60–65% remaining. if climate science is even half right burning the remaining oil will be a disaster, but humans are used to disasters, so nothing new. They say a massive lump of space rock did for the dinosaurs, so even with renewables it seems we can still be wiped out. Frack every well.

The Norgies would say otherwise .

😂😂😂😂😂🤪🤪🤪🤪 World leaders of our imagination alright. You’ve just imagined that for sure as no one said anything like it “But where is the fun in that when we can slate the country we live in at every opportunity, grass is always greener, here is never good enough”

Yeah, but why should we bother ourselves, we'll be dead by the time the world is proper fckd, or nearly dead anyway. Let the kids work it out. If China are burning coal then we, as a nation should lower ourselves to the bottom of the barrel to match them. Screw the descendants. Or... we can show ourselves to be the world leaders of our imagination, take the mix of climate changes, dwindling oil supplies and children and be the best we can be to leave them an inheritance worth living in. But where is the fun in that when we can slate the country we live in at every opportunity, grass is always greener, here is never good enough.

I was gonna go monterey but I think you are right Steve .

China's target for net zero is 2060 and India’s 2070. And India has no plan at present to wean themselves off coal!

Well funnily enough I met with both Tom and Jerry today at thier Scottish site. I was getting training and accretted. Was a great day and learned how to properly use the Mill plus Tom did a cracking job of dialing the Mill in properly.

Theres an old saying, when your mates constantly trying to push his pinus onto you, its time to take a step back.

If you are on Instagram Andy, check out Grantlandtimber based in the SW. They have been importing Peterson Mills and developing business here for about a year, they are planning some sort of event this year, I think they are out and about up in Scotland this week.

Everything’s a pine to your mate!
