Flint

[Hacking and bashing]

How the fk did this flint get here, caused all sorts of kaos . End of the screw driver shows where it was.

One of the worse things for knackering a chain

Nasty.

 

The 064 found this one in the middle of a yew recently 4' from the ground.

Mine was 10ft up with no external holes.

I am fairly diligent in putting the metal detector over before each slab but there's not much you can do about stones other than swear a lot afterwards. Had one in a sycamore the size of a shoe (the flint not the sycamore). I cut a thick slab then made it into a table top and resin encapsulated it. When asked how I get the stone in I just try and put on an enigmatic air.

Had a spring clip from track ( 3/4" spring steel )  , lodged in tree fork - went thru the Forst TR8 last week - such a mess :( K

A bit for my time, a bit for the resin, enough for a new chain and then double the lot for the story and the enigmatic look

You're a very creative accountant!
