  1. Past hour
  2. That was its original bar from one of the first 500i , it’s had two nose sprockets on ..one a few weeks before 3 t of ash pinched and rolled on it popping the saw apart anyway.. I know years back I had 200ts which had the spark plugs helicoiled back in … they never lasted though , I’d just buy a new head or saw.
  3. Today

  7. Late Christmas presentsspalted beech with added wood worm
  8. Not sure if this is the best place either, but honestly that sounds like a really solid service call. Hihi
  9. Yes, true, though I will drive it in reverse for the most part which will limit that and can open the infeed to lower the weight on the drawbar. Jockey is due for replacement anyway so I might look at fatter model. The original one fell apart very quickly and the current one is a design that folds up as you wind it. Bit close to the truck and the winder has been hit a few times. I'm sceptical about the longevity of the control box given heat and vibrations.
  10. Ridgeline soaks up the water in the outer material like a sponge. Have a had a Hoggs smock which was fairly decent but couldn't go all day.
  11. the "jimi Hendrix" style of chainsaw operation, wait until he uses his teeth! and then lights it on fire.
  12. Well first try of my initial foray into cider making. Not as dry as I thought it was going to be, maybe dry/medium, very drinkable.

  14. Not got to us yet, seems to get later every year, I know he's busy and all that but.....no excuses for tardiness 😁
  15. Dogging in is getting birds back into your cover strip using a spaniel usually ( but not exclusively ) some time before you do the drive . In a nutshell cover strips should be on higher ground ( unless they are going to be blanked into higher ground before the drive comences ) Pens should be the oposite ground to the cover strips . ( birds will usually fly from cover back to the reliece pen they were reared in ) . Feeding can be by hoppers or you can hand feed by whistleing the bird and feeding on a straw ride . You want the feeders in the cover strips . This is very baisic . There are other subtlties .
  16. petroleum coke is tempting and some smaller suppliers do sell it by the ton(around 400 euros) but the quality is debateable as is sulphur content... It's not the same as from big suppliers who actually make it in their own refinery like Rompetrol... Although at 8.7 to 9.8 Kwh per kg ,its more than enough for a small stove 😂 See for yourself Packaging is 13kg or 20 kg bags. Burn time (their statement/word) 10-12 hours... Better than coal briquettes, nevermind oak or wood briquettes...
  17. Yesterday
  18. Crank up the big diesel server, Steve. This bandwidth’s about to get busy.
  19. I didn't ask tonight, just got a beer in any glass as it was so busy! I'm not a glass snob but would accept a new glass if that is what they have to use!
  20. Honey rum here. Kids left it out for father Christmas. Excellent choice on their part. 😃
  21. Really helpful Thanks guys. Makes sense. If weather is fine I will start to disassemble before going to Christmas lunch hosted for a change by offspring! Results to follow
  22. I orderd a 15 in K041 format, I received a K095 Mount. The seller is sending me out the proper bar and a return label. Am telling you, Ireland is no joke, just about everything goes wrong.
  23. I have been using my RRP for months so I climbed on BDB yesterday and it reminded me how bloody brilliant it is!
  24. Is your surname "Goebbels"?

  26. Building on the success of its popular SG-40 series, Bandit has introduced the new SG-40H hydraulic-driven stump grinder, designed to reduce maintenance and boost efficiency for tree-care professionals across the UK. The SG-40H features a side-mounted hydraulic cutter wheel drive, eliminating the need for periodic belt maintenance while providing consistent grinding torque. Its 47-inch cutter wheel swing can be fitted with either 16 Greenteeth Bandit or 24 Hex Teeth New Revolution wheels. Powered by a 40hp Vanguard EFI petrol engine and equipped with a heavy-duty track drive system, the machine delivers superior mobility across soft or challenging terrain. Additional features include electric cutter wheel engagement, generous fuel and hydraulic capacity for extended operation, a three-position pivoting control panel, and intuitive joystick operation for maximum visibility and precision. Compact dimensions make the SG-40H ideal for tight or confined work sites. Edward Baker, Managing Director at Global Machinery Solutions, commented: “These enhancements make the SG-40H faster, safer, and more productive, meeting the needs of professional tree-care, landscaping, and grounds maintenance operations. “The SG-40H takes everything operators love about the SG-40 – power, reliability, and intuitive controls – and enhances it with a hydraulic cutter wheel drive. This reduces maintenance and increases efficiency. “It’s a real game-changer for UK tree-care and landscaping professionals, and we’re proud to be the exclusive UK dealer for this innovative machine.”
  27. Horrid mark, along with thevstihl 241cm ...if only they made a pro version of the stihl ms250....that was great and a quick cutter ....
