Oh the irony!

All I can find is that it is only combatible with a 5v/1000mA input charger - I'm hoping that there might be something on the side of the battery pack once it's open but am maybe being overly optimistic.

Hi James, do you have any experience with a brushcutter or a chipper? We're based in Ross on Wye and are looking for staff.

Okay I had changed all the hoses for tight fitting ones and fired it up but it died of fuel starvation. I didn't get more done as a small medical mishap set me back for a while plus I was disinclined to do much other than loaf around as summer went past. Getting back into the swing I tested the carburetor and the inlet needle held pressure. When the purge bulb was used it mostly pulled air. I think this is another case of the main jet check valve failing, either by previous use of compressed air or a needle being poked through it. This strimmer is worthless, and I deprecate their use anyway, it's only a challenge to me. Back in the day my saws had no purge bulbs, small hedgecutters and strimmers did, and AFAIK no check valves. I wondered were check valves used before bulbs so I chacked a carb from a 254 and they were. Now back in my thread about the walbro carb in an einhell https://arbtalk.co.uk/forums/topic/133943-walbro-carb-problem/page/8/#findComment-2030690 @bmp01 said he deleted purge systems successfully. Is it possible to also delete/block the main jet check valve so it is only fed from the H screw?? I can see the two idles jet holes in the throttle body would need blocking.

PM'd you.

Obviously if you saw the log with a bandsaw and box the heart in you'll end up with three slabs that are quarter sawn and then some rift sawn either side of this then the upper and lower slabs will be plain sawn. If you're getting a lot of oak passing through this is by far the best option timewise.

I had the same back in the spring . Mouse chewed a bit about a yard long in the loft .

Trying too hard wee man, you are making yourself seem a bit desperate two BS posts 5 hrs ago over different threads.Liking a post that was a reaction to something I admitted was on the wrong thread, a situation that had been amicably resolved 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. You feel the need to have a little dig before bedtime ” Steven” from behind your veil of anonymity.

I had the very same thing happen to me twice, once with a sparrowhawk, that hit my french windows and was unconscious, I checked and as far as I could tell, no bones broken, I placed it it a quiet place and kept an eye on it, within 10-15 minutes it had regained consciousness and after a short time flew off strongly. an almost identical occurrence but with a kingfisher and a different window, that to survived, it was dazed but not knocked out completely, my missus took a picture of it and did a cross stitch picture of it. but the oddest one was a robin being pursued by a sparrohawk that flew inside my open combat jacket and hid until the threat passed, the sparrowhawk veering off rapidly upon seeing me, I was driving the tractor at the time. I remember feeling it's heart beating at a rapid rate. where I was working at the time you only had to pick up a spade and the local robin would follow you to where you started digging and were tame enough to take worms and grubs from your hand.
