Hope it heals quickly mate:001_smile: Shame no pics tho, I think they should make it apart of the first aid kit as standard an Arbtalk camera and write it into the first aid procedure. 1. Get good photo's for arbtalk 2. Get duck taped up 3. Pop a few pain killers 4. Back to work or 1. Run about screaming like a woofter 2. Get a little plaster on (with winnie the pooh pics on) 3. Have a few months off work 4. Go back part time because you don't think your hands up to it yet.

It's my landrover, All you landrover mechanics which is probably everyone who owns one I need your help. Started my landrover this morning fine tried to put it into gear and it wouldn't go:confused1:, The clutch feels soft and a low biting point. Also checked the clutch fluid and it was abit low but when i stuck me finger in it was black (not the usual colour i know). Topped up the fluid and now i can get 2nd and 3rd but not easy. So what do you guys think ???

Didn't think it was good outside tho only for indoor furniture and stuff.

This what wikapedia says Manufacturing * In many areas fast-growing hybrid poplars are grown on plantations for pulpwood * Poplar is widely used for the manufacture of paper[8]. * It is also sold as inexpensive hardwood timber, used for pallets and cheap plywood; more specialised uses include matches and the boxes in which camembert cheese is sold. * Almost the entire woodwork of the traditional houses of the people of Badakhshan, also known as Pamir in Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Northern Areas of Pakistan is comprised of poplar wood. Traditional Pamiri House * Poplar wood is also widely used in the snowboard industry for the snowboard "core", because it has exceptional flexibility, and is sometimes used in the bodies of electric guitars and drums. * Poplar wood, particularly when seasoned, makes a good hearth for a bow drill. * Due to its high tannic acid content, the bark has been used in Europe for tanning leather.[3] * It was also picked as the material for the bones of "Buster", the crash test dummy used in the TV show MythBusters, after some experiments revealed that it fractures under approximately the same loads as human bone. [edit] Energy There is interest in using poplar as an energy crop for biomass or biofuel, in energy forestry systems, particularly in light of its high energy in-energy out ratio, large carbon mitigation potential and fast growth. In the United Kingdom poplar (as with fellow energy crop willow) is typically grown for two to five years (with single or multiple stems), then harvested and burned - the yield of some varieties can be as high as 12 oven dry tonnes every year[9] [edit] Art Poplar was the most common wood used in Italy for panel paintings; the Mona Lisa and indeed most famous early renaissance Italian paintings are on poplar. The wood is generally white, often with a slightly yellowish cast. Some stringed instruments are made with one-piece poplar backs; violas made in this fashion are said to have a particularly resonant tone.

I might be up your way in the not to distant future can give you a few lessons if you want, but you need a faceplate and various other tools first:001_tongue:

I always thought boxwood was alot lighter prob wrong tho:001_smile:

Yep, nice What wood is it:confused1: Get a mechanism and you have almost got a pepper grinder there:001_smile:

Cool, Looks nice so far:thumbup1:

I guess you don't do the diy stuff then:001_tongue:

I'll drill four holes then do a bigger hole so you can knock a peg in to cover the screws if that makes sense.

ramin

Found this on web, Index Name Ramin (Gonystylus macrophyllum) Type Hardwood. Other Names Also known as ramin telur, melawis, and lanutan-bagyo. Sources Grows in Sarawak, Malaysia, and south east Asia. Appearance Straight to mildy interlocked grain and a relatively fine, even texture. Creamy white to pale straw colored heartwood and sapwood - not well differentiated from each other. Physical Props Moderately heavy and hard with high crushing strength, moderately high bending strength and stiffness, low shock resistance, and poor decay resistance. Exhibits large movement in service. Steam-bends poorly. Working Props Works fairly easily with machine or hand tools but tends to chip out on quartered surfaces and end grain. Glues satisfactorily. Pre-drilling required for screws or nails. Stains, paints, and generally finishes nicely although grain filling may be necessary to achieve a smooth surface. Uses Used for furniture, mouldings, interior joinery, office fixtures, toys, carving, dowels, handles, and other turnery, flooring, paneling, plywood, corestock, and decorative veneers. Comments Often used as a substitute for beech.

Well you will need a crane to start with, i'll drill four holes for you on the two side bits .

So here you go yes or no was that what you were thinking of ???, if not i'm making another one any way with straight sticks instead of diagonal.

Nice one Dean:thumbup1:, Like the ground saw:sneaky2:
