ive got a br85 and a big backpack blower, the big one is great cleanup in no time, but we shall see how long it lasts my br85 gets so much abuse, gets left in the back of the truck in the rain, came out 1 day and it was in 3 inches of water in the back of the pickup and it was good as gold.handy little blower

-
used it for a while, seems to bind up a bit,but is pretty durable. gone back to liros oh and armour prus
-
thanks but im really after someone whos tried it, it needs to be able to run it comfortably,or il buy a bigger saw
-
just wondering what size bar my 390 will realistically run. ive got a 28 on it at the moment but would like to be able to stick a 36 on it.il get a oregan bar so i can stay with 3/8s chain. or do you think i should get a 066 to run a 36

its actually a nd(national diploma) not hnd(higher national diploma). youd be better off getting your own gear
-
did you send me a cv
-
as far as im aware the hnd has been replaced with the fdsc at sparsholt, in which case the course is 95% theory, and unless your going out to work you wont need any personal ppe except steel toecap boots for site visits etc

my thoughts exactly
-
do many manufacturers actually produce ropes with spliced eyes at each end?
-
not sure i get your point, if there is milking at the opposite end of your line to the splice, why would this affect the splice
-
im guessing you are doing this as an experiment to see the effects of splicing both ends of a climbing line

im not suggesting leaving the latin out,far from it. just think it would provide more of a resource if both the latin and common names were there -
