if you just want 3d pics over aerial photos then use google earth, but for os data as well then anquet is pretty good, several guys i worked with used it as it was cheap and easy compared to the dedicated computer mapping packages
-
I would have grabbed that and got it to the local lepidopterist group ASAP, or the NHM it looks potentially like a sphinx moth (not present in the Uk to my knowledge) from the first two pics but the third pic does look more beetle like, certainly not like anything i have come across before, do you carry any tubes for collecting inverts Monkeyd?

logun s16 is a pretty handy tool, lots used in pest control, dont know about the FT use of them, but if they are about £600 which would leave you a couple of hundred for a scope, bipod and pump, but i love my theobens i currently have an older model break barrel and its just so well made and accurate, you could always try the theoben rapids, which have been around for ages like a rapid mfr which would do both rolls well. there is a used logun mkII professional with thumb hole stock on gun trader at the moment, with a moderator and AGS scope for £625

theoben rapid s-type possibly the finest air-rifle i have ever had the pleasure of firing rrp £943 and you can shoot smarties at 50yards no problem what you wanting to shoot with it? as thats a lot for an air-rifle

you could use a IR LED and sensor across the infeed, would only need two small holes and being solid state are relatively shock proof, somewhere about i have a circuit board printed up for this purpose that just goes to a relay, you could then have that trigger an electronic fuel pump, down side is it would be basically a logic system so it would be either at idle or full revs, dont see it being a huge problem if someone had a day or two. i would be tempted to bypass the existing throttle system and just mount the second fuel pump in parrallel to the existing sytem, so one or t'other could be used, (not both at the same time)

sorry to hear that Chris, no cctv or active alarm that rings you? you can set a yale wireless system up that rings you pretty cheaply, doesnt keep them out but lets you know if somethings up.

I was working for the Game Conservancy, one of the many bits of work i did for them, the deer really really really need a serious hammering, as some of the areas had no sheep, and just loads of deer, With the woodland grouse the numbers are being affected by vegetaion being to short and also the nests getting trampled by deer, i can see one solution that involves a bit of time and a .270 (not endorsing DCS though)
-
I was volunteer work as well so didnt get paid it was a shock to the system sat in tescos car park in Aviemore in the first week of June with the thermometer in the L200 saying 2degrees and there being a light shower of snow surfice to say i went back to the office. the one thing i couldnt believe was the sheer numbers of ticks from the deer in the heather, i wouldnt sit down for my dinner, my other half was doing a study into tick abundance up there, and found one fieldvole with 110 ticks on it I loved seeing the capercaillie about up there, fantastic,
-
I did a load of vegetation survey work up there a few years back, round rothiemurchas and kinveachy awesome place, really liked it, but i was living at Drumochter (the highest point on the A9 i think) and i hated it, it was like a 30mile round trip to the pub Must admit i love the west coast, been up to Oldshoremore near Kinlochbervie lots of times, love the beachs and scenery can go for a paddle in the see with the dolphins, and watch the otters and seals, hmm think i might have to book a cabin up there again soon

i know you have to be carefull with attachments other than the saw,

mine has only done a couple of days light work and i had to fight the shaft of the powerhead as it had rusted in, unfortuntly mine isnt in warrenty, i just cant work out whats stopping the final drive shaft going back into the outer that the saw head mounts on
-
my ht75 end drive shaft appears to have popped itself loose today and i cant get it back in, does anyone have the ipl or workshop manual as a pdf the could email me, or explain the disassembly procedure if there is one, i have a horrible feeling its a sealed unit and may require a new shaft

if you want to get more into it, contact your local wildlife trust who will be able to point you in the direction of your local bat group, who will normally carry out cheap training helping you to gain your bat license and will give you lots of opportunities to see bats in the natural habitats and carry out different survey techniques, you may well find they are keen to have someone who is happy to climb trees etc in the group, normally its not expensive but you will have to put some volunteer time in! EDIT: or contact the people Monkeyd has just found whilst i was posting
