Wasps. Appropriate action. Build a shrine to them. Praise them. Feed them jam on sacrificial children. They’re as important as bees, they’re amazing pollinators…

If they’re so good, give me your address and I’ll post you some. 
Kill the bastards. My phone typed kill the gays when I tried to write that. Kill the gays afterwards.

That was a roller coaster ride!

 

...and I agree with every word. Very important wee beasties, absolutely essential to a well-functioning ecosystem, and a total nuisance when they find themselves in the wrong place. Flight path diversion or relocation preferred, eradication a close runner up.

 

Do you already have a suitable forwarding address to send any unwanted gays?

 

Err, sorry, I mean wasps.

How mobile is the m300? I'm looking at finally getting a wee chipper, the Jo Beau offerings seem to get heavier quickly with incremental grunt increases... 

It is incredibly mobile as I have just been standing it on end to try and get a bolt out that I dropped into the drum! No doubt patience and lateral thinking will win the day. To give a sensible answer it is very mobile, as you can undo just two bolts to let the feed hopper move into a vertical angle so you can get it round tight corners. I move it on a trailer as it is a bit too heavy for two old fellers to lift into the chip box. The guy I sold my for M300 to a few years back uses a ramp and winch to pull it into a transit van. Hopefully I can post a positive outcome about this lost bolt🤞

Have you considered a magnet on a stick?

 

That's useful, there's obviously a big jump in capability to m400, but it doesn't seem the kind of thing I'd want to wrestle around on my own as much as a 300... and I'm wondering if I'd get away with even the m250.

The wasps nest doesn't exist. There's just a whole pile of them gorging on ivy flowers. I have suggested a number of approaches to my stepfatherinlaw. Complete inactivity seems to be the favoured route at the moment.

Just on the tech specs the 250 is not a lot heavier than the 200 (105kg, 117kg, 145kg),and has nearly the same power as the 300 (60/80mm max against 80/100mm). Probably not quuiite as durable though.

 

This is all far too targeted, and not at all pottery. Should probably redirect to the wee chipper thread.

That's the sort of thing I'll have appraised.

Back on pottering, I've been trying to shoot some groups for about a fortnight now. Set the entire day aside for it and it's now windy and trying to rain.

 

That isn't pottering either is it. I'll open the garage and see what happens.

 

I did pick some things off the floor upstairs earlier actually.
