  1. Past hour
  2. I bet haven pay google a hell of a lot of money so its no surprise that they might cut out the fake news stories. Although if you add asylum unto your search it brings the old stuff. Is Eggs gone for good then or what?

    Clutch wear

    So we now know why it’s worn!
  4. So is the Stihl battery one, I just love it to bits. There's still a place for the petrol ones, but I always reach for the battery one first.
  5. If you use the stepped tap it will start following any vestige of original thread, the cutting bit of the step will ream out a hole which is the inner diameter of the helicoil's thread, the tap above the step will then form the new thread. If you use just a single helicoil tap you will need to drill first, this is where mistakes happen. The helicoil is just like the one way clutch you can make with a pencil and a spring of a slightly smaller diameter on it. You can wind it in because you are drivng in by the tang and, as you say the torque causes the spring to wind up and shrink its diameter slightly. Try and unscrew it and it attempts to unwind and jams against the thread, this is why it doesn't extract itself when you take a plug out. it's also why it is most important that the helicoil is short enough to sit totally withing the length of thread. Having a piece of helicoil sticking out of either end of the threaded hole is a disaster. I have never had one jump a pitch when inserting.
  6. Today
  7. Send these stupid saws somewhere they're needed. Is there a commonly available 48" 3/8 1.6 bar available for 661 bar mount yet? That'd stop even the most committed idiot buying one. @Rob D aka chainsawbars does a 42" Sugi Hara. Not a big enough step up from a 36" to me. Does a 48" 3/8 1.3 GB milling bar though.
  8. Wordle 1,531 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛🟩⬛ 🟩🟨⬛🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  9. Have you tried this bit of the site? https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/ I wouldn't recommend woodchip to get rid of weeds though. Not in the long term at least. They'll work for a couple years, if in a sufficiently thick layer, but as soon as they start to rot and breakdown they'll just form fertile new soil for weeds to grow in. Better to use an inorganic mulch like chippings or slate. Or just accept that there'll always be weeds and remove them as and when they get too much, and certainly before they set seed.
  10. Just above joint and a slope cut, good work should shot from joint.
  11. on holiday at the moment so cant investigate further, but ive unhidden it for you in the meantime.
  12. This one has me stumped. Tree crown is around 10-15 metres in height and spread. Not a lot of photos as I was slightly distracted by the Naturists in the garden and didn’t want to give them the wrong idea. No matter what time of day it is, why are they always playing lawn tennis?
  13. If you’re doing a lot of flail work get a tractor much quicker
  14. Just buy the Oregon or stihl can, with the Stihl spouts. Throw the husky one in the bin.
  15. I like how light and out the way the Protos coms are, only really need one ear anyway. Overall I’ve been happy with those, though I can see advantages to the pro coms. Like proper hearing protection.
  16. Late summer is after fruiting, and to avoid damp conditions in autumn as silver leaf likes the damp. I always say "well the books will tell you..... " and then go on to say mostly we ignore that and do trees whenever we get to them else we'd be hungry 6 months of the year. In any case I'm not sure that there is actually that much risk of silver leaf in the average garden, it's more of a stone fruit orchard problem. The spores are released from fruiting bodies on dead wood, so gardens being tidy there isn't much about.
