50 cc saw (stihl ms261) and 13 inch bar for most f the work I do - storm clearance. 70cc for felling larger trees, logging or when I get the first saw stuck! 120cc for blocking up "unsplittable" logs on the ground

Similar to Andrew doing an interview?

Morning all, colder here now. It was zero yesterday and it’s to get down to -10 this week with snow. I bought a PTO Jensen. Trying to reduce manual chipping so this should help.

+1 I do feel there was a technology sweet spot around 2005. A lot of "advances" since have been purely for commercial gain rather then customer need or desire.

390 should be on .375 ( 3/8ths ) not .325 . Bar length 20,24,28 seems good . I have a Spud ported one .

A Christmas treat usually! I'll have to try it with the sandwiches this week, depends if the ground is frozen over at lunchtime tomorrow maybe - I'll let you know what I think. Had to google that, yes brassica - also Wassabi which HR is often a cheap replacement

I’ve found the best way to keep costs down is to buy unseasoned wood in bulk and stack it yourself to dry. Also worth checking local tree surgeons, often they’re happy to drop off loads much cheaper than firewood suppliers.

Frankly, it shows how fragile the notion of "freedom of expression" in the United Kingdom has become. We may not agree with his words, but the idea that we can be arrested just for writing this is quite disturbing.

Hmm, this is a modern beat combo I'm not familiar with.

That's really tempting. I usually shy away from the expensive jackets because I reckon they vary in rain resistance but all have approximately the same silky resistance.

You need to check if its damaged. Its a bit of a complicated setup but IIRC you need to follow the wiring from the motor back to where it goes into the tube. From the tube it curls around the articled part and its the bit after that where the issue is.

Never heard of them, but sub 12 I'd stick to air arms pellets as they're available practically anywhere and were always consistent and cheap. Most pellets are made in just 2-3 factories, H&N were making Bisley and a few others brands when you peeled the barcode label off the back.

Probably did! £20 labour soon disappears once you take the machine in, tag it up write out the quote and phone the customer, usually several times, never mind repairing the thing. Hopefully it will help someone in the future if they come accross the same issue and this thread.

A fairly recent auction of JCB odds and sods from the factory also unusually had quite a few lots that had come from a harbour somewhere 🤔 JCB are committed to the Hydrogen economy so it would not be that surprising if they had identified Milford Haven as the ideal place to berth ammonia tankers from sunnier climes.

Of course... You're british,right?! 😁 Around here in Romania we have electric 2 wheel "things" going 90km/h on Highways... And it's worse the more East you "dare" to go... Basarabia/Moldova, Ukraine, God forbid you step into Russia... Anything is possible in Russia... Aliens are afraid to visit Russia... Anyway...

We want to see your #ArbInAction pictures!

Lucky it didn't get propelled up the chute. A good reason not to stand in front of it and to keep the truck rear window protected. -

Looking for Opinions on Tree Removal Near Foundation
Falling Leaves replied to orioncyg's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
Sorry, this is a British forum (.co.uk); people here won't try to advise you. All we can recommend is finding locally appropriate advice. Good luck. -
IMG_6112.mov Sailor just being a fine figure of a dog on the penultimate drive today. Tied up because he’d just tested my patience on some bloke’s labrador and I needed to drop a length of fencing during this one anyway. His best work went unrecorded because I was too busy laughing a rib out. Big field of waist-high dead peas. Woodcock up straight away. Then zigzagging like he knows what to do, three or four pheasants. I praise him and riding high on the adrenaline and my satisfaction he bounces across the field like a blesbok, springing three feet straight up and down, not in slow motion but as if the world just stopped for a moment to marvel at it. Magnificent. Pissed myself to the point I couldn’t blow the whistle.

Can you give an idea of the day rate please?

Primer bulb pulling air but not the usual suspects.
Mark_Skyland replied to jarrick's topic in Maintenance help
If you block the fuel inlet to the carb, just put your thumb over it and create a vacuum on the primer side, put some fuel pipe on it and suck you should not be able to draw air through, if you can you either have a hole in the pump gasket or usually a bad check valve.
