What is it with all the putdowns on Americans? I play along and all but after awhile it gets tiresome. Is that just normal behavior for you? I think it's kinda rude, myself. I don't think I've typed one bad thing about Brits. Are you just naturally unmannered?

We tend to only "take the Mickey" out of people we like, please don't take offense it's not intended to upset (well not from me)

My brother in law is married to an American girl, they live in California and have just had there first child, I am really looking forward to visiting them:icon14::beerchug:

It's called having a sense of humour Butch.

 

Some have it, some don't.

 

I think the Englishman, the Irishman and the Scotsman have had enough mickey taking and we need to pick on some other nationality

 

Feel free to take the mick out of us anytime you want. You're more than welcome.

Very watchable video MB. Good work :icon14:

 

But..... whats with all the one handed saw usage @ 1.56 & your groundies one handed saw use @ 2.15:scared:

 

You do mention quite often about the differences in Arb practice between us on either side of the pond.

 

Is the above standard practice? if so, I feel I can vouch for the majority of professionals here, that our industry does not equate that style of sawmanship as anywhere close to best practice.

 

Appologies if this appears to come across as an insult to your inteligence and your standing within your peer comunity.

You are quite clearly competant and comfortable in your abilities, and truly, I aint pickin a fight with ya, but in my opinion, that type of standard would not get an invite back the next day, to any of my work sites.

 

Hope you're not too offended, as posting that type of media, although entertaining, should be open to honest critisicm as well as the sought back slapping.:ciao:

Not my style. I'm just a naturally nice guy who trys not to be rude to people.

 

I'm sure, looking back through your posts Butch, you've never offended anyone on this forum or maybe just upset anyone a little with sharp comments :sneaky2:
