Can I take it Home on Public Transport?

Is that a kind of Armour thats made up from lots of thin layers of Armour being glued together?Or is it like inanimate Armour that dosn't do anyhing and just sits there?

Call up all the local Tree Companies and offer your Labour for Free for a Day.Explain to them why you are doing this,this will encourage them to have you out without taking a gamble on productivity. Like alot of Business owners,many is the day I could "ring in" some reliable help.

I am currently making a "Resitometer" from a Broken Battery Charger. I intend to get some new Hypodermic Needles and some Rubber Gloves.I will take my "Resistometer" from its Case and with a Florish insert the Hypodermics into the Bark.Then after Donning the Gloves I shall attach the "Resistometer" to the Hypodermics.The Dial will show no charge,therefor the Tree is in decline and will shortly Fail Catastrophically probably in the Direction of the youngest Child.

I disagree. I know the gear my Competition has,so when it comes to the big jobs I know roughly what its going to cost them to hire in the gear I OWN. So my quote is what I estimate the competion would charge to hire in that gear plus a little bit.If I get the job great,if not,they are working for less that what I want my gear running for.

Arn't Elm Trees just Lime Trees but without Leaves? I think the best plan is to reverse the name of a Fungus,the client will never find it should they Google the name "amredonnag".It just gives more scope for you to dazzel them with "knowledge".

I agree that the general build quality of Chainsaw Trousers is lacking. The outer Fabric on Chainsaw protective Chaps worn in NZ and the States does last for years.Also is is possibe to totally recover Chaps as long as the outer is attached at the same points as the originals.

Thanks Tony and Dave.I wasn't sure what it was,never seen Foames on a Beech. I certainly will be keeping this one,however I think my Velcro dot technique of Bracket attachment won't hold this one.I think I'll put a spike in the back of it and push it into the ground behind any Tree at the base. I'll claim that it causes third degree burns in Children and old people.Should clinch a few deals.

Who is getting into next winters firewood ?
Mike Hill replied to gensetsteve's topic in Firewood forum
Done a couple of Cord of Burr Oak.Takes ages to dry. -
I had a look at a Beech today,it has Phytopthra in addition to these Brackets growing up the Stem. The Tree is Knackered and didn't come out in Full Leaf last year. There is a Historical Building on one side and a busy Road the other.

Public speaking- time to get help!
Mike Hill replied to Tony Croft aka hamadryad's topic in General chat
I did this. I approached a man preaching the Word of God in Brixton and explained my fear of pubilc speaking.No one was paying attention to this guy anyway to I had a go,just reading from the Bible and not looking up.After a little bit I could memorise a Sentence or two and meet peoples gaze whilst talking. I joined this guy a few times and gave his Church some Money to thank him for his help. -
Norway is getting "MOTs" for Trailers next year. I was in my mates Muffler Shop today when the inspectors came in to have a look,he is going to off the MOT service.They agreed the new law had nothing to do with road safety as the ammount of fatal accidents involving Trailers is mainly limited to Agricultural Vehicles.Oh and wait,Ag use is except. WTF.

Thanks for the Heads Up Justin. I will send ABC Shirts the Design once I have sorted it.
-
Can you please suggest a firm you have had good results with.I am going to get some Polp Shirts Printed with the Company logo.

Have a look at the Switch that is operated by the stop bar.Sometimes the plunger sticks down.
-
Does your machine have a Box inside the Engine Bay?Mounted down low the Dip Stick Side? There is a Printed Circuit Board in there and one of the Circuits can blow giving you no Feed Roller Function.You can remove the Board and Bridgewire the Burned out Circuit. Save yourself £160

I have a Weaver,I prefer it for Take downs and it goes well with my Beard.

That looks really smart!

I think the Oil in the Reduction Box in the Hub was Glittery. Try these guys for Final Drives. Mini Excavator Drives

Try putting a flim of Grease on the inside of the Air Cleaner Cover,you might need to wipe it clean and reapply a couple of times in a day. Guys used to do this when working on really dusty Skid Sites,different make of saws but same kind of concern.

Get a Long Bar on a Big Saw,Kneel in a Wheelbarrow and have your groundy push you along the Hedge.The novilty of this technique with amuse you and impress passers by alike!
