  1. Past hour
  2. I have the 003g, bit of a longer bar on. Tempted to stick either .325 or 1/4 on it, rather than 3/8lp
  3. I think it was Monsieur Dempsey that said the breakup between Trump and Musk would be epic. It looks like it's about to start.
  4. Retain the trees where you can. It would be good if you could keep us updated, see what happens
  5. I see the harness didnt stop you falling in! Might seem a daft question, why wear a harness on a boat or standing in a stream? Is it just for the convienece of stowing the saw? Or to stop the boat floating away when you jumped out?
  6. you never know he might have a client/owner that's a tree surgeon and get it done fore next to nothing

  8. Did my Opico Skidster the other day. Filter in there was Donaldson P169797. Cleaned with kero and air and put it back in since the one the shop sold me (apparently same as the Donaldson doobin gave me the number for a few posts up) was an inch shorter. Diameter looked OK. So maybe Sherpas use a 2" filter and Skidsters use a 3" (both approximate). Mental amount of oil in there. It was five or six brimmed catch cans, either 4 or 5 litres each. Very pleased to find clean fluid, not even as dark as a rum and coke. No shit or steel in it and I've used it hard. New fluid is basically invisible on the dipstick. Bit of colour would help.
  9. Today

You seem to be slipping down the path of lies the Covid thread took you, making blatantly false statements 42.
  11. That's the stuff
  12. Oakleys been a good help recently
  13. My honda head bolts came a bit loose. Hadnt really started leaking as bad as that, but I just tightened them up and carried on. I would tighten bolts and see how it goes.
  14. Vamparts.be is another worth looking at I've bought parts, for my 411 Unimog, of both of these companies without any drama
  15. Haironyourchest, In reply to your questions.....The flywheel is all intact with no missing fins to cause an imbalance. There was no play in the big or little end of the con rod. I have been able to rebuild the saw tonight, and she fired up a treat with no vibrations as expected. It will be weekend before I can try her in some wood. The only difference , is that I have also replaced the deflection limiter bushing which was worn. My theory with that was if excessive travel was causing the AV springs (all intact) to allow the two dampened assemblies to contact each other when in the cut i.e pulling up on the rear handle and pressing down on the front handlebar. I will update this weekend ......Rgds, Med
  16. Same again this evening
  17. Tom, my lad, is into drag racing and crews for Bad Apple Racing which has a 2000hp 57 Chevrolet. At Santa Pod the other weekend, that caught fire and, while salvaged, needs a chunk of work. Tom has a Foxbody Mustang in Dallas and is currently doing Mega Week, a drag and drive event. Living his dream! Messenger_creation_42E17CE7-9069-43C7-8291-CA29DE3194E5.mp4

    Tyre help

    Tyre fitting is one of the many jobs that look easy until you have a go. I am old enough to leave it to a professional.
  20. Get away with you. Lumps that big only belong on a plate, not in a sandwich. Branstons spreadable or nothing. Or homemade. Points for the Corned Beef though.
  21. What do you know about the Stihl smart connector? There are a few for sale ( look genuine Stihl ) for about £20. Looks like you can pull a lot of info and with the Stihl app read it on a PC.

  22. Large amount of hard wood will need strong men or lifting equipment, beer tokens will take it. Luton LU4
  23. If you sit one in road back up cones with truck parked either side of it. And tell traffic management if being use and they will cone off long distance so you are safer.

  25. Sometimes variegated cultivars just revert on a particular branch up in the canopy, maybe a break or pruning site but other times seems random. I guess this is a similar mechanism.
