  4. Today
  5. OK. ffs the price has gone up in the past two years. this is what I have and I would recommend it. Mityvac Silverline Vac/Pres Metal Pump Kit MV8500 646541004116 | eBay UK WWW.EBAY.CO.UK All images shown are for illustration purpose only. Silverline Vac/Pres Metal Pump Kit. just make sure you get one that does vacuum as well as pressure. Mityvac do a similar pressure only tester that I bought by accident first time round.
  6. You didn't expect him to be happy with this news did you? Although from what I'm hearing now, the fact that the Republican candidate didn't win was largely due to the Trump Taint. 'Mandate for change': Zohran Mamdani wins New York City mayoral election WWW.BBC.CO.UK It is a historic moment as Mamdani also becomes the first South Asian and first Muslim to lead the city. On top of the demographic complications this new guy has some very anti-trumpian policies indeed. POLICIES He has proposed: A free bus service citywide Rent freezes and stricter accountability for negligent landlords A chain of city-owned grocery stores focused on affordability Universal childcare for children aged six weeks to five years Tripling the production of rent-stabilised, union-built housing A flat 2% tax for New Yorkers who make more than $1 million a year
  7. Can you put a picture up?
  8. I always used to do that, go backup and get it. Apart from the times I didn’t and lo and behold, it got stuck. I changed to SRT a lot of years ago. Hey presto, my cambium saver hasn’t got stuck since.

  10. Very pretty but as far as I can see it is a complicated/expensive way to save a small amount of time.
  11. What ways have people come up with for a attaching a fixed ring or something to the rear handle of a ground saw for hanging it off a caritool? Up until today I used to hand them of the front handle. But I know want to rack it bar facing down. The idea being similar to the fixed points on the husky top handles. It's always in the same place unlike the ring on the strop aswell as holding the saw higher.
  12. I had a slightly more sensible response from Dan @ Stihl GB. Still doesn't make a huge amount of sense and I think it shows how much 'out of touch' Stihl GB is from it's customers. \\ Good morning Mr Bartlett, Thank you for your further email. The part you are enquiring about is used on the Rescue Saw version of the MS500i which is not supplied or brought into the GB market for numerous reasons. I am sorry for any disappointment caused, however should our ongoing market research deem a need for this specific machine in the future, we are happy to review it's introduction at a later date. Kind regards, Dan STIHL GB Andreas Stihl Limited //
  13. I got fed up after both a Husqvarna and an Oregon one failed and leaked. I now just use an 5L aspen can filled with pump fuel and a 5L oregon chain oil can. Both pour really well without a funnel if you keep them at about 3/4 full. But I'm normally never far from a vehicle.
  14. Thanks for your correction -I didn't realise it was actually a 10cm thick branch . So, that's actually quite good productivity, for a machine powered only by a 13Hp engine.. When I quizzed the Carlisle agents, they were insistent that their bigger 25Hp engine unit made no discernable difference to chipping performance, only to tracking speed up an incline. Hence they would only now sell the 13Hp engined units. Perhaps I'd better get up to Carlisle, to test out the demonstration unit.
  15. I wonder if we're more or less terminally confused by the ai revolution than our ancestors were by the industrial revolution. Information is a lot more available these days but I'm not sure that leads to greater understanding. Especially after reading the above...
  16. Morning all, Drizzle just now but 15 degrees and sunny forecast. Crazy. Side pruning some conifers today.
  17. Ahh, that might explain it.
  18. Yesterday

  20. Yeah, that was what I concluded. Though I had them in a dim unheated garage I think, maybe if they were in a bright, warm conservatory or something they'd do better. No need to buy more seeds, just use some from last year's chillies. They're always viable. Dead easy, especially if your drying them out anyway.
  21. Looking for insurance for our log business machinery and public liability who is using who ?????
  22. Yes and yes, although the hinge quality on most Ash trees particularly the larger ones are unaffected by Ash dieback. Another tree served notice on by the highways. Set back 5m from the road edge with relatively lol usage and hardly declining. No way did it warrant removal let alone 28 day notice from highways. Very poor judgement. Sadly I was just the hired gun to kill it for another company. I'm awaiting a job direct for myself where I can offer to appeal the notice. Its all to common the highways are serving notice on trees that would be deemed tolerable risk if using QTRA which I know they use. So appealing it should be fairly straight forward.
  23. This is the big turntable machine isn’t it? Couple of peeps on here have them. I may be wrong but I heard TW stopped supporting the machine. So you may have to get engineery with spare parts. Got any pictures?

    020T av mounts?

  26. Whats the old saying "Americans can be relied on to do the right thing after its exhausted all other possibilities" Well Trump has been exhausting
  27. FSI Stump Cutters proudly introduces the FSI B23, the successor to the popular FSI B22. Combining familiar design elements from both the FSI B21 and FSI B22, the B23 is engineered for everyday professional work by arborists, landscapers, contractors, and hire companies. With the FSI B23, you get to choose between a 14hp Kohler engine or an 11hp Honda engine, while enjoying the benefits of hydraulic wheel drive. The B23 combines power and user-friendliness with well-known and well-loved design features to make stump grinding easy and efficient. New features of FSI B23: Auto-Sweep Release: Automatically releases the sweep lock when the wheel brakes are applied, allowing you to reposition the machine quickly and safely at the stump. Closed Bearing on Cutterwheel Housing: Pre-greased and sealed from the factory for over 1,000 hours of operation, eliminating daily greasing and reducing maintenance concerns. Safety Bar: Stops the machine when released for increased operator safety. Other new features also include a larger sweep for increased cutting range, recoil start of the engine, and a document tube and hour meter now included as standard. “With FSI B23, we’ve refined what already worked well,” says Launy Luckmann, Development Engineer at FSI. “It’s a compact, reliable machine designed for professionals who want straightforward performance — with the comfort and simplicity that FSI is known for.” The FSI B23 reflects Danish engineering at its best — simple, robust, and made to perform day after day with minimal maintenance.
