  1. Handy to know.20meter Tapes cost over £100 here.I'll try harder to find a replacement.I've got a nice bit of Starter Cord hanging off mine at the minute. Hope it dosn't get hung up on the Slash.
  2. Today the Black bit came off my tape,can I buy a replacement tape or do I need to replace the whole Reel too?

    It is a Norwegian person who did this.Where would you have him deported to?
  4. Can you not pull the Projectiles and replace them with the Bullet of your Choice?
  5. Thats a really nice Photo! Are the Red Woods at risk of being clear cut?
  6. Don't price jobs for 5 Hours. Its either half a day or a whole one.
  7. Do some Googling regarding Pinus Radiata in New Zealand.It is an important export so I guess there should be a fair bit of information on log weights. L.F.I.T.B was the logging and forest industry training board that used to do tests and experiments.Might be worth a try?
  8. If it wasn't for the Empire building of the Brittish,I wouldn't have been born a New Zealander.I'm all in favour of a bit more Empire building to be honest.I actually have a Tweed Suit,Pith Helmet,Stout Boots and a Rifle. I even practice.See...
  9. Nice one Andy! Chris,the Chainbrake bit is knackered.Thanks for the advice though.
  10. Thanks very much for you kind offer Andy! But the Chain Brake Handle is defective,actually its the Plastic Hub that engages the Rotor on the Chain Brake Body that has stripped.Might see the local Husky shop has one.
  11. Pair of Boot Laces Tweezers Eye Bath Cheap Watch Buckled around the Handle on the Combi Can.
  12. If you steepen your filing angle and keep the depth gauges high,the 441 would probably alright.
  13. Yes it does,thanks for that info.Its a 2152.Now I have to find a Chain Break.Engine sounds good,might be a nice saw.
  14. I would be interested in it.Perhaps a quick analysis of for example 50 Arb injuries that the victim was hospitalized for longer than a week,could give us an idea of what the course needs to teach us.For example,Spinal injuries,Blunt Trauma,Severe laceration,Amputation etc.
  15. I need a chain break for the Johnsered,but the stickers have pealed off.Does anyone know what model it is?
  16. I wonder if..... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miUjGDyHdNc]‪004‬‏ - YouTube[/ame]
  17. Foliar Spraying Willow/Birch/Broad Leaf regrowth.Some of it was felled years ago. The Chemical has 388mg of Glyphosphate per liter,I think.
  18. Yeah,when the Weather is great Bergen is loverly,however the reverse is to often true.
  19. This was what I ment to do the first time. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ez2eAKLhgM4]‪Bergen fra Suburban‬‏ - YouTube[/ame]
  20. I Duct Taped a Camera to the Roof of my Car and drove through some of the Old Town.Hope you like it. Tredoktoren - Local business - Bergen, Norway | Facebook

    Colder than -15c and the Rubber Snaps inside the Lanyard too.Great.
  22. All good information everyone,thanks for that! The site is concerned with the ammount of regrowth evident each year,thats to be expected with an area that is comprised of cleared forests that are now Fallow Feilds that experience no Grazing apart from the odd very lost Deer.
  23. What is the reccomended Ration of Round up Ultra to water for killing the regrowth of Willow Saplings etc.These are mini stumps that regrow each Spring and are one half to one inch accross. I was told a ration of 1/7parts water was ok.Sounds a bit light to me.Using a backpack sprayer. Also the contract requires us to reapply the Chemical twice a Summer.Would reapplying it for example three days later,be as effective as reapplying it one month later?Reason is that good weather for Spraying is rare here,
  24. Also recognise that some Trees will look bad after even the most accomplished Climber has reduced them.If you cutting to a ridgid spec and thats what the customer wants....
