  1. Brilliant.....I'm just havin a cuppa here, then going to try the start proceedure Dean was going on about.....fingures crossed.
  2. Cheers fellas I'll have another look tomoz.
  3. I have had my O44 for about seven years. It will not start and I noticed the high adj screw had sheered off in the carb. So I replaced the carb with a new one (ooch) opened the screws a full turn as Stihl recommend....Tried to flash her up and nothing. It has fresh fuel which is used in all my other saws. It has good compression. Piston rings look ok. There is a spark. I have tried the fuel straight into the spark plug hole and warmed the spark plug. fuel pipes look good. On/off contacts clean and in place. Swapped the coil on a working 026 (which looks the same?)and tried that. And still she appears to have passed away. Any chainsaw paramedics out there got any ideas. If you had to replace it ....what would you buy.
  4. It's called being a tw4t tax:sneaky2: I often use it...
  5. Lets just assume were talking about Rogue pikies in that case.....and not get into the pikie thing again.
  6. So I'm up this tree and see a transit drive past full of tat. Next thing it does a u turn about 100m down the road. I tell one of the groundies to go out front, as I know the leaf blower is in the front garden with the cleaning up kit. The pikey is already in the garden by the time the groundie gets there, and ask's if he can borrow a bit rope to tie down his tat........REALLY!!!!!! We thought about giving him a 37m xtc fire (as he said he would bring it back) but instead the groundie told them to f*ck off. Anyone else had a close call? What was there excuse?
  7. Nice one Ross. Hope you had Mani tied on too the LJ with a half hitch and running bowline for that one. I remember Pete over in Beteshanger felled a tree on his dog. Luckily it was ok (after a big vet bill)
  8. Bloody remarkable resemblance......are you sure it ian't yours Dean:scared1:
  9. Best - Working for nice customers. Worst - Working for not so nice customers.
  10. HAIX Extreme .....On my second pair now very comfy and hardwearing.
  11. I was searching on google for 'tree stuff' and got a link to one of the threads.
  12. I've just got the xtc fire and use it with silver streak prussic cord. very pleased with it ...and love the hi-vis.
  13. WHAT WOULD YOU CHARGE or is it a secret????
  14. Reduce/deadwood the Oak 600 GBP fell the Beech. 1200 GBP My pounds key don't work lol
  15. Sounds like a good buy Lee. Pick-up's can be used off road but are not real offroaders. They are too light on the back end (if not loaded) and need tyres for task. Don't expect too much of it off road. put the tirfor in the back if you think you might get stuck. I like the look of the Ranger. They still look like a 'pick up' and not a hairdressers motor. ie nissan navara (IMO)
  16. Good job......post the vids when you get a chance.
  17. Won't see me in a pop in that wind:scared1:
  18. Cool Stuff......Think time is money with those choppers. Just gotta get on with it.
  19. Do you realy want to be supporting 'a tree house' with a dead stump:scared1:
  20. Love the way the helmets are on the gate ....so as the dogs don't p1ss on them:thumbup:
  21. Took this photo last week when we had a minute. Anyone else got some 'chilled groundies photo's'?
  22. Loaned Tana Mahuta 20 quid
  23. Quality:thumbup:
  24. Excellent ....I just spat my coffee all over the computer.
