  2. Fancy hidden lock stitching for a low profile eye, perhaps a bad design decision and huge QC failure. Mistakes happen, most climbing companies have had a recall or two. Petzl have had many... Marlow Ropes issues urgent update over stitched splicing in one product WWW.FORESTRYJOURNAL.CO.UK Responding to recent speculation on social media about a possible fault with this, the manufacturer has reiterated that no other ropes in its range… It means the spliced ring I did last week is far from ideal, but I note that DB spliced rings are available to buy with the same rope. Anyway will only use for small stuff. Stein give the same splice rating with the ring and without so perhaps the difference is small..

  7. If , and big if i was going to get a td5 it would be tuned by je engineering in Coventry, Still got to sift through the crap to find a decent garage , many claim there great, when really they are terrible , the are some good ones few and far between
  8. The vassa in Sweden is supported by pine props , I asked them weight to prop ratio or how many tons each prop supports , Back came this abrupt answer - were trying to work and we dont know ! Vasa is a big ship!

  10. Does anyone have any experience of the 1988 version of the Japa 700?

  12. New hydraulic fittings fitted Apart from being shiny, they seem to work a lot better than the old ones, though I haven't used them in anger yet. They take up more space, the assembly is considerably longer than the old ones. The result of this is that in certain positions, the hydraulic hoses are on a quite tight angle. I'm guessing this is fine; it'll have to be. Ordered Manuli couplers from LS Engineers, and various adapters and washers from Burnett & Hillman.
  13. No , although it would not hurt to lap the valves i . I was talking about the valve guides . They might be worn .
  14. I phoned about half the United Kingdom’s anodising industry.
  15. Tom back from the states so treating to a playful of Britsh beige. Sausage meat, bubble and squeak, fried eggs and baked beans!
  16. Ah but physics is not simple, and not what I see from trying both in the Echo. 1/4" has 20% more cutters in contact so the extra width of 3/8 is about the same, but full chisel is more efficient and a lot easier to sharpen, and better on small pruning cuts. I bought the PM3 on arbtalks recommendation. I'd suggest you try the 3/8FC.. Stihl do a narrow 1.1 gauge 3/8" FC that is probably the fastest over all. I cant see it in 40DL however so would need to be shortened.. Stihl 14" Picco Super 3 Pro (PS3 Pro) 3/8" P .043″ (1.1mm) 3699-000-0050 - 50 Drive Links - Radmore & Tucker WWW.RADMORETUCKER.CO.UK The PS3 Pro saw chain is a low profile full chisel tooth chain with a narrow kerf for increased cutting performance of 20% compared to PS3 chain...

  18. Agreed that sounds fine. Run through the other checks and let us know. Not idling or surging are classic symptoms of an air leak somewhere.
  19. Kram, if you have quoted 3 men on the hedge an you think it's doable just stick to your guns. As for the disagreement about the arisings of the tree takedown. You need to make sure you write in your quote exactly what you are planning to do with them as I have had this before. Customer then quibbles and if it was verbal then you are on very rocky ground as they can just say 'that was not my understanding'. So clearly and concisely written quote can save trouble further down the line. Obviously only relevent in those few cases where you have those customers who just don't do as they are told and just get their wallet out. If he wants you to get in and sort that brash out then some boards on the ground is your answer.
  20. Sorry, forgot this. Run, Too, Cede.

  22. can't go wrong with most tbh, if it sounds good, holds oil, doesn't leak and digs! buy it. today I through a track for the first time in a few years I think, big boulders under leaf litter and fly tipping. luckily I now have a Dave, my right hand man who was a fitter for 15 years and operates everything, I ate lunch, he put the track on.
  23. Might be Biennial Cropping. Some varieties are more prone to it. One of ours does it, it's a bit annoying. Laxton’s Superb I think it is. Lovely big tasty apple, every two years!
  24. I lied about running great. Early on the recoil spring snapped, likely user error as I have had to adjust it before. Anyway after bending a new tang on the end and she was fine after that. I'll get a new one ordered along with spares for my 020t and 2511.
  25. Sweden, about 9k, project with papers to import
  26. Nothing like being happy in your life . 🙂
  27. Oh I completely agree, seens the police are useless , however in this day and age you will get someone stab u in the back by filming it... the stuff you could get away with you cant and because the police are biased - ie all this so called mental health shit, or they came from a bad home etc means that the police are geared up to protect the criminal, including the justice system and prisons...there the worst as the moj are so scared to be sued by a prisoner that they will bend over backwards for them. Nothing will change until u get rid of the human rights shite. Maybe then il happily get involved but unless my life's in danger , I couldnt be bothered .
  28. Any chance of getting mine on too? Name is Duncan Currie...
