  1. Amsteel or something similar. If you can't get a vehicle near how are you going to winch?
  2. Nice work Reg. you look very much at home now over there facing the different challenges. Has modifying your cutting style helped & do you think they are an improvement aver all?
  3. taking bets that Bob & Dave Humphries get maximum points
  4. Funny. Results are quite scary! 12 for me
  5. To retrofit would you not need to replace the flywheel & install all the other electrical sundries - not simply the heating element? Sounds like a less than cheap & simple affair to me
  6. Same as any chuck n duck machine (no feed rollers & a drum machine). They are still used all over the world inc the US & Aus. Nice home engineering if you ask me
  7. If you have a 372 I would recomend disabling the heated carb - a great way to cook a saw if your not carefull. I would cut the wire
  8. If you don't care why comment? You obviously can quote chapter & verse helping someone who requested it. Or are we in the presence of someone who always knows better ?
  9. I check my own kit - what's the problem.
  10. The triangle looks like the perfect way to induce splitting of the stem. Why use it? The further the back cut progresses the more wood to cut & the greater the forces upon the wood fibres building up behind the hinge. On freegrained timber that IS going to cause massive issues
  11. Look into the "coos bay" cut. It's not directional but may be perfect for the job.
  12. They can earn you a lot of money, but they are horrible to use.
  13. What your looking for is NOT first aid training. You are wanting above & beyond I.e. first responder which is more expensive & time consuming
  14. Very very nice Dean! You fitting any tool boxs?
  15. Big climb. Looked like plenty of fun
  16. 254 or 440 can't decide twixt them
  17. Done & can help with the climbs if you cannot get anyone more local to help you
  18. Illegal burning by those in a smokeless zone without a cleanburn stove, yes, but not found the illegal supply
  19. Bear sleeps in the kitchen & never goes upstairs unless he is sent to get my lazy ass out of bed
  20. My welcome Bear. Yours may be a little easier to get past though
  21. I quit sept last year. It's easy if you want too.
  22. Once upon a time in the west . The original spaghetti western
  23. And our Xmas bonus is Bob ?
  24. If you have a google account you can opt out of the advertisement tracker.
  25. i love that tree. I slow down & often stop when I pass it
