200L over six months works out as a litre a day. A couple of big saws would easily gobble that up. My previous 25L Rotatech oil, with still a couple litres left, was opened Jan '24.

Why aren’t they dredging the life out of it whilst it’s empty ffs?! Increase capacity without upsetting the enviro-huggers. It would be a fast, cheap and easy way of bolstering short-term storage.

Any pics? Not much you’ve not done!

No clue but someone should be able to help! Well help with the ident, there isnt usually anything you can do to help the tree or stop the fungi.

Wordle 1,490 X/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟩🟨 ⬜⬜🟨🟩🟨 🟨🟩⬜🟩⬜ ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟩🟩 WTF was that?! Four words I've never even heard of.

Harsh, but I think that’s the way more and more people feel, including me. I said a few weeks back I think we should give 48 hours notice that any boats entering British waters without permission will be sunk. If they drown, they drown. They’ve been given fair warning.

I thought the boundary position had been verified, the true boundary, not the one he claims. so I'll ask again, how much if any of the tree is protruding over the boundary.

I have the Record No.6 fore plane I queued for in the fifties, It was a Saturday morning in a dedicated tool shop, Skeet and Jeffes, and one took a plastic number from a caddy and waited to be called, the service was terrible. It's under my bed to keep it rust free. We have a cluster of asbestos related disease locally, associated with the local gasket factory, the medical officer, my GP in 1972, was in denial about it then, when I left the practice (after 71 years) I noticed his name was not in the practice history.

What a load of jibbering shite. Get a ****************ing grip of yourself. What was it you said about a site for tree surgeons, on that note how’s the answer to that other member about your preferred saw going ?? You do own a saw I take it ??

Blackmdog in this heat!

Yes, it's a very long time since I was involved in conifer plantation forestry and I cannot remember it causing significant damage to douglas but things have moved on and its hotter and drier plus you are a few hundred miles south and further from the coast, so hotter still.

amazing what you can hide with a couple of passes with the mulcher

Sorry, yet another senior moment, this is what retirement has done to me.

Has anyone use POR15 to seal an aluminium fuel tank? did it work?

Hi Mowandgo! Did you ever figure out was causing your mantis Honda gx25 tiller to cut out at high rpm? I replaced the fuel filter and lines on mine and fixed the engine from turning off today and it seemed to run fine for awhile at full throttle but started to lose a little power and almost seemed like it was skipping, it’s extremely hot today in NC. but I’m thinking it’s the coil or valves. It has new plug, air and fuel filter and fuel lines. checked the oil to make sure it was ok, it was full but like thin cooked hot water. I’ve never understood how lawn mowers, motorcycles and tillers last so long. It was having the exact same issues as yours though, been a great tiller. Thanks and have a great one. sundrop.

Thats a good call , yep Just to split hairs forget my original " hornbeam " and I'm going with Cob Nut . 🙂

The beauty of passing a business across although next week I'm on a 13 tonner.
