Good firewood, but can pop/spit , if not careful. Easy to split

Is it that a chipper disc requires a lot of torque to get moving and some PTOs are too weak?

Any efco saw listed for sale in the uk will be very old stock. Efco ceased to be a brand in the uk well over 5 years ago. The sister brand ...oleo-mac are the only current products sold within the uk now, and as most efco and oleo-mac products were near identical, the parent company in a cost saving exercise couldnt see any good reason offering an identical product, just in a different coloured plastic in the same market. Therefore....avoid any efco products that are still for sale in the uk market unless you want at least a 5 year old saw before youve even used it! All manufacturing dates are clearly marked on a white sticker next to the serial number, so if in doubt ask the seller the year of manufacture. Just worth noting.

I’m self employed so can do what I want, you on the other hand are an office based public sector employee so stop wasting time on here and do your ****************ing job lad. Are you retarded SP how many times have you now been told SCUBA has been banned for commercial use for years, plus you don’t sniff whatever mix you are using you breathe it ffs. Anyway how’s that for something a bit more interesting than a spreadsheet 👍👍 enjoy the rest of your day 😂😂

😂😂😂It’s not me trying to establish a link, did you read the article sailor boy. Or are you desperate for a Gotcha 😉 It would seem so 😂

So about the time that suddenly everyone had a computer in their pocket, rather than a communication device. I tend to agree, but you could say that IT was elite until the smartphone became afordable. Ie only those who could afford a PC or laptop and broadband at home were IT enabled. But of course the upside of this was that things were still available the old fashioned way. Banks were still a thing; the high street had a huge variety of shops, and you could phone ahead to see if they had what you need. Nowadays some things are just so easy to find - a quick google search, press a few buttons and within a day or two it arrives. On the other hand how frustrating is it when we are forced to do things via an app that doesn't work properly? And how sad that so much of life is just now about staring at a screen - social media is a whole rabbit hole of good and bad that we haven't even mentioned.

Used to be Spud but he is retired, now its Crocky . I have saws ported by both . All good .

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...

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.

Thank you all for your kind replies. Appreciate it! Photo attached. No TPO.
