Yes. When wood smoulders, with no flame burning the offgas, what is happening is the fire is hot enough to pyrolyse wood but not hot enough to reach the autoignition temperature of the offgas. Nascent char is oxidising to give off enough heat to sustain its combustion but largely without flame . Thus the acrid smoke going up the chimney condenses on the cold chimney as pyroligneous acid. This can eat mortar. I think it is slightly worse with hardwoods as it contains acetic acid (wood vinegar). Before organic chemistry took off pyrolysing beech was a major source of acetic acid. In 2002 I was snagging a large woodchip boiler at a department store in Milton Keynes where they had been burning rejected/returned flat pack furniture and one part of the flue had become too cool. Here is a picture of a 316 stainless steel single skin pipe that had been perforated by the acid that condensed, though in this case I think it was probably hydrochloric acid from some plastics that were associated with the furniture.

I would hold out for a good used CS100 or a Jobeau, both will walk all over that Chinese job, and still have a resale value if needed. There was a mint CS100 on arbtrader a couple of weeks ago for £1700 ish, I would have bought it myself if I was in the Uk at the time.

It keeps popping up doesn't it.

Sorted the problem today. To cut to the chase the sprocket cover was damaged which was causing the bar to pinch the chain. I will go into some boring detail later when I have a bit of time.

It is a bit strange that some saws melt the cover quicker than others. I only mentioned the running it on the deck as it can effect top handles as the exhaust is usually pointing downwards so the the gases can bounce off the floor back towards the cover. Maybe some heat reflective tape will help.

The curtain was the most ridiculous thing about that. I think the American housemaid cooking one was more of a giggle.

That and also a different ignition coil IIRC. All of the current cs2511's will be an x series going back maybe 4-5 ish years.

Was that hit Pete or did the chassis just snap? -
You'd think an important function like justice would be carried out by capable people; failsafe, double checked etc. It isn't. It's performed as competently as anything else the government does. Oh look, Alex is whingeing about government again. I talk with lawyers pretty much daily. I've done loads of bits of legal work experience. I've helped people with legal stuff. I've been through various legal proceedings on my own account, mainly doing it myself. Three days ago I settled an 18 month civil claim with a 9 year history, that I ran from start to finish. Same thing everywhere. Errors are the rule, not the exception. Two weeks ago I was served a copy of a court order (which you can go to prison for not obeying) mandating something be done by a date that had already passed. Evidently computer generated and not checked. You call the court. Everyone's off sick. They can look at it in about five weeks' time (by which time other contingent deadlines will have passed). You call the court via a different telephone number. You get a different answer. Total joke.

Morning all, Throwing it down here, but I don't do Fridays on site anyway. Bit of office work then domestic bliss. The mewp was a joy to use yesterday now it is behaving itself. I chose to put oversize pads under the outriggers as the ground was pretty soft. Hope your day goes ok in this weather.

I’ve used the TP 175D a few times but never owned one. It’s a solid tracked chipper and handles rough ground well. The feed system is strong, but it can bog down if the blades get dull. And parts are on the pricier side, so keep that in mind. If you’re working on uneven or muddy areas, it’s a good machine.
