  1. Past hour
  2. Some people have way too much free time.
  3. Mmmm interesting. I think it is clear why they removed that line. It is nonsense. I guess you don’t know about Nixon and watergate. Or indeed Clinton. Not to mention many moons ago Harding. Trump has been accused of various things, but so far not much has stuck.
  4. Is this the Rolls Royce sales technique?
  5. Same issue - solved after much grief by using air compressor (low pressure - just enough to make snapped off piston stop rattle inside the cylinder) - out it came after about 20 seconds. Did require removing exhaust.
  6. I never resort to stating the obvious in these delicate situations.
  7. I'll raise you. I've gone full circle. I predominantly climb SRT but use a cambium saver as my top tie.
  8. Today
  9. I've got the Milwaukee telescopic pole saw, and is brutally powerful... August Hunicke has a 14" bar on his. Ease of use, power, weight it beats the petrol ones on all fronts imho, plus its nice not getting a mouth full of fumes when your holding it up trying to reach that last bit! Length wise its about the same as a Stihl petrol one i think.
  10. Are these the best small chippers? I'm looking at the M400, have tried the m300 and thought it was good for what it is. Jo Beau customer service and aftercare doesn't get a good review though and wondered if there's better out there?

  12. I think you have carb issues - the scoring may not be all that bad. When storing a 2 stroke machine for more than 3 months I go over to some rough ground, start the machine, then with it running, open the fuel cap and pour the fuel mix onto the gravel etc, or a jug if you're eco, then rev the guts out of it till it stops. This way you are not left with stale ethanol fuel in the carb to gum up all the bits I know nothing about. BTW I've had mixed results trying to revive carbs with carb kits. Often end up hunting for a chinese copy carb and changing it out, or even a new genuine Stihl carb off ebay if its cheap. By tipping the fuel out after long term storage you still have remains of gakky fuel in the lines and carb. My protocol is for a tightwad who won't pay for alkylate mix. There's usually enough breeze to take the fumes away. And I'd hate to have spent all that money then get prostate cancer
  13. Both are decent bits of kit. From what a lot of climbers say, the SAKA feels a bit smoother and lighter, and it’s easy to tweak the bungee so it sits right, while the HAAS tends to give you that longer ‘big step’ feel and is pretty bomb-proof. If you’re already used to 30" of travel on the HAAS you might miss that with the SAKA, but most people seem to find it more efficient over a full day. I’d pick based on which set-up fits your rope diameter and how you like to stand in the harness rather than the spec sheet.
  14. Nice to see you up early jase 🤣 100k redundancy can make a man lazy. 😁 Chin chin my boy talk nice to pete and he might swing you a number selling those big chippers he is doing.

  16. Yesterday
  17. Sure is, did you used to live locally?
  18. Glad my ramblings helped you and thanks for the update👍
  19. I've sent a message through your website!
  20. I thought this was another thread about labor politicians,, and then I realized I'd misread the title.
  21. and at current prices a deer fence on 3 acres will cost 20-35k, cheaper to buy a digger and bury the bodies.
  22. Made it onto AC Price Calender.
