  1. Well it is Ukraine that they are fighting for after all. Or would you prefer " equal opportunities casualties?" Ukraine is Europe's problem. Europe will be forced into handling it.
  2. No idea.
  3. These rights are conditional,just like the UK. Try marching onto a military base and attempting to exercise you right to assemble,protest and speak freely.Likewise you cannot walking into someones home and argue with them,or assemble in their Garden.Argue with a Judge,"but your honor is my right to argue with you". Trump is restoring an element of common sense to a landscape that was polluted by endless "woke-isum" ,BLM, and ANTIFA ,antics.Furthermore he is doing so with the support of the 77 million Americans who voted for him.Dont like it? Then immigrate to America and vote Democrat in the next election.
  4. If I lived in the PNW I would get a Hobbs too.Most of the rigging is negative blocking down of Conifer and your wasting the extra money on a GRCS using it as a bollard.
  5. You are once again pushing the boundaries of the term " talking bollocks". You speak " hyper-sonic bollocks". Untruths so vast and fast moving,they tear the very air they pass through.You miss the point by nautical miles as the bollocks you speak climbs towards the heavens at Mach5.
  6. So. Back to my original point.Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe after Russia.
  7. What " little country" are you talking about? Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe after Russia.
  8. Breathtaking Gary.
  9. Tell us about the Land Cruiser in the background? Does it run?
  10. Not Montell Pines? If they were,we could tell you how to do it
  11. Not as much as feeding it a big branch does,time and time again. Adding a little weld close to the shaft won't matter. None of the disc's are perfect anyhow,the have more cast than you think.
  12. If you do take the cutting disc out,it's vital that you scribe around the pillow bearings before unbolting them from the mounts. They have to go back mm perfect . You should get that disc out in a couple of hours easy,lift it out with engine hoist. I just welded them in situ but if your taking it to a welding shop they might appreciate better access.
  13. No. If it's not doing what you want,slow down the feed rollers or buy a better machine. Forst is a lightly built chipper with alot of corners cut in building them. Grind out the crack.weld it up and give it a couple of runs over your new weld. Put some stiffners in it too if you like. They go almost over where it cracked funnily enough.
  14. Well... I have welded two different machines in that same area as well.I know of another that has suffered from the same poor weld quality. Grind out and re-weld.You can preheat if you like but my 200amp kempi welded it up no worries.Dont worry too much about damaging the bearings if you do pre-heat,there is alot of steel between that area and the bearing seals. You could weld stiffeners between the fans like Jensen has,they crack but not at the welds in the axis shaft like the forst do.The whole cutting disc flexes when its being fed bigger stuff. The stiffeners are sections of a steel ring welded between the fans incase you are guessing
  15. You never know the route out though. Could have been down a spiral staircase along a hallway with two turns then up another spiral staircase and out through a Chemist shop. The owners of which " forgot" to clear two aisles before you arrived and are determined to remain open throughout the job. " Watch out for my bloody stock items thank you very please".
