I already did that today, but my main coin hasn't dropped that much.

You could well be right, I don't think this is the big crash though. Not yet.

it will definitely crash at some point, but the very fact that the crypto markets have attracted a different kind of investor means that how or when the crash comes will be hard to predict. Its bouncing back quite nicely now. who knows whats next?

No TP's are good, I had a 250 pto, and I now have a 160 and a (ducker) 200. I have also had tw, gm, Forst and bandit. TP are up there with the others.

Thats true Stevie because the blades aren't tapered, they do need turning however as once they round over it doesn't pull the stuff in as well. If you haven't turned the anvil its well worth trying.

I have the older version, the 160, its a good little chipper, it pulls stuff in nicely although not as aggressive as a Forst or TW, however the build quality is good and the chip quality is excellent. If I have a complaint with the TP's its that they are a but fussy when it comes to maintenance, they like sharp knives and well adjusted anvils or they don't pull the stuff in as well.

if you want to buy crypto with GBP then cryptosaurus is ok...

You're spot on there, so hard to know when the crash will come, it won't disappear though, the technology is good, so when the crash happens some coins will emerge as the winners, others will just disappear and be worthless. The same thing happened with the dot com bubble, out of that came google, Facebook and amazon. The trick will be knowing who the winners will be.. BTW i just closed my factom margin position, profit from 25minutes exposure was $1100! So today I started out with a stuck timber wagon which we had to unload where it was and then drag out with the mog, so we were late to our job, set the guys going then a meeting in Edinburgh, then off into the borders to grab a snatch block that we had left on another job, then back to the job, couldn't get the Landy and trailer up the forest track so had to mess around with the alpine dragging it up. Then finishing in the dark, plus we didn't get the whole job completed, so the job was £750 but we didn't finish it, meanwhile I just made more than that in less than half an hour with no overheads, and it's tax free! Still dirty hands: clean money and all that.. Mind you I know what I'm doing if my guys do a bartletts and put me out of business.......

I know. Just like a job only makes a profit when the customer pays the bill. I think I'm going to cash out my original investment amount soon, then I'm in for free. I enjoy playing with it to be honest. I margin sold 200 factom 20 minutes ago, its bombing nicely just now. It's nerve wracking knowing when to close the position, but that's all part of the fun.

Well my investment just passed the. £7.5k mark! From £2.8k a few weeks ago. I reckon this tree work game is for mugs..

No, free downloads.

Some wallets are one coin only, others can take multiples, Exodus is the best desktop wallet I have tried, it supports about 20 coins, simple to use too...

Of course they can be stolen, in the same way that your money can be stolen if you leave your cash card lying on a park bench. Hacking into your account is a different matter. The reason cryptos are inherently safer than other types of banking is that they are decentralised. A centralised system works like your bank, or eBay, amazon paypal etc. there is a big computer somewhere that stores a ledger which shows how much money each person has in their account. Any centralised system can be hacked because the data is all in one place, there have been plenty of high profile cases of companies loosing customers data... A decentralised system works differently, basically the ledger is stored as a blockchain, which is a series of blocks of code that detail every transaction that there has ever been. The block chain is stored on thousands of computers, some cryptos allow all wallet holders to store the whole chain. When a transaction is made it is confirmed by different holders of the chain once a set number of confirmations have been made the transaction is approved. Any hacker would have to simultaneously hack hundreds or even thousands of computers simultaneously in order to profit. This is impossible. The wallets that are used to store the coins come in 3 basic types, 1, web based where your private key is stored on a server on the web: hackable. 2,desktop wallets where your keys are stored on your phone or desktop: also hackable. 3, hardware or paper wallets where your keys are stored on a usb type device or a piece of paper in a safe: not hackable, they could be lost or stolen however.

You can get mobile wallets for IOS or android and some exchanges have mobile versions, I like the desktop exchanges better, but the iPad pro is big enough to use the desktop versions anyway..

You can buy in the uk through cryptosaurus, but you will need to have your wallet in place first, I like Exodus, it supports multiple coins and has a very user friendly interface, support is good too. my favourite exchange is Poloniex. its US based which gives me confidence, compared to some of the far eastern ones. Today while I was working I was playing on Poloniex, I made £120 on buying Stellar, then lost £80 on radium before making £80 back on Einsteinium. It fills the gaps between council permissions and quotes..

I got £3k in a PPI claim recently, I invested it in Crypto, I figured I wasn't expecting the money so I could afford to loose it. I actually invested £2800 about a month ago, my current portfolio value is about £4100. So its been ok, its not very easy however to get your money back out of crypto. I have spread my money around in various ways, Long term, short term and a trading fund. I have about £1500 in XRP which I hope will rise at some point, (long term) about £900 in medium term investments and the rest on the exchanges where I actively trade trying to make a buck. I either do this by buying coins I think are rising and selling before they fall, or by margin trading where you borrow someone else coins (at a rate of interest) and then sell them, only to buy them back at a lower rate once they have fallen, you then repay the loan and keep the difference. Margin trading is fun, its also tricky, I have made losses as well as gains, but its all a learning process. With margin trading trades can last from a few minutes to a few hours, I have made £120 in 15 minutes and I have also lost £80 in an hour. Its not a bad way to spend an evening in front of the telly. My advice to anyone thinking of dabbling in crypto is be careful, do your research, and only invest what you can afford to loose. You can make some serious returns though and its fun if you like that sort of thing. ICO's (initial coin offerings) can be extremely risky however they can also bring big rewards. I bought £50 of electroneum at the ICO which got me 5800 coins, each coin is now worth about £0.08 so thats a serious return! Wish I had bought a lot more now, however It could just as easily have tanked, in fact it could still tank tomorrow....

One thought is...is there enough air coming into the room? Some modern double glazed houses are almost air tight, have you tried opening a window whilst lighting?

like others have said use loose dry paper to warm the flue, also use the upside down method... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zG_urpcjp7M

Yes it was oak, it was a tree I felled on a site job a few months back..

I did this as a commission for NTS to go up at Corrieshalloch Gorge near Ullapool. It sat nicely in the space. Hell of a long way to go to deliver it.

Thats the problem i had with it, its too grippy. You could experiment with different cords though, you might find a nice combo..

I have an ST8 for sale, it has only done 80 hours and still has 2 years warranty left. I can even help you get finance if you need it. I have been let down by a couple of buyers and I really want to sell it now. It will be back on Arbtrader today. I will sell it for £14500+vat which is a lot cheaper then you will find elsewhere, I really need the cash now unfortunately, I paid £18500+vat just under a year ago so I'm loosing £4k, thats £50per hour . I only have the unimog to console me....

Full forestry spec tyres are seriously expensive, I just put a set of trelleborg's on my valtra, £4K for the set!, on my old valtra I used ag tyres, if you're going down that route Klebers are about as good as you'll get.

The light flashes in a sequence, you note t down and then look it up in the manual. e.g. 3 flashes then 2... most likely cause is the external lift buttons on the wheel arch have got damp. remove them and disconnect and see if the problem is still there. otherwise could be the position sensor..
