  1. Yes I think will woods is a member and occasionally puts a view across. Used 1 years ago and it is what it is a.single feed rolar small engine chipper, simple engineering just don't expect it it compete with a bigger machine but a good starter machine till you can afford bigger/newer.
  2. At last the perfect tool has formed a falt, not braking like a zigzag but falling apart, only jesting... Glad it's been identified before any 1 gets hurt. I've forwarded it on to 2 lockjack uses I know ain't on here.
  3. Nothing wrong with it jon and it's actually my favourite rope in years but found the bluetongue just runs that little bit sweeter, might swap back tomorrow for a play and compare.
  4. That's 12D not D12
  5. Me neither but Ringway do luckily
  6. D12, operative and supervisor to chapter 8 signing lighting and guarding I think
  7. Can we get a northeast 1 Paul and I'll be in!
  8. All it'll do is widen the gap between those doing it right to the book and those doing it cheap and winging it. Haven't read it yet but will and will reply trying to be constructive.
  9. If you find 1 let us know as quite fancy 1.
  10. Grappling hook I think Mr shires ment.
  11. Techniques in the use of the MagThrowBag climbing…: Try this link, was the 1 I was on about.
  12. Don't go for imori for a zigzag, excellent rope for grip and feel but won't self tend very wel because for the bumpy construction of the outer sheath, it's was my main rope for the hitch climber but changed not long after getting the zz. I have tecion for a side strop in my zillion and thats fine so fancy trying that as my next main line.
  13. Bluetongue all the way for me, lasting very well.
  14. Ment to say sanding pads are a waste of time on green timber as they just clog up in seconds.
  15. Got sorted in the end Kevin and an apology from head about it all. Bobh, got 7" 80grit flap disks for it which fair shift timber but leave quite a smooth finish, also remove skin so be careful, ended up with a good gash on my ring finger that needed glueing and sherry stitches.
  16. I tried the left/right defenders a while back but never felt they fitted as well as these, I also wash the sponge bit ever few weeks by sticking them in my chainsaw trousers pocket and washing the lot.
  17. Try these, higher rating but still the closer fit.
  18. Some simple benches for my daughter's school, larch milled with the alasken then sanded and sculpted with a 9"angle grinder.
  19. Was going to say that's worse than 1 of my slightly running over jobs! Hmmmmm new lady, remember a gentleman never tells so I'm looking forward to hearing all about it :-P
  20. Ah great minds think alike :what:
  21. Deep cycle leisure battery and some long wires, was thinking the same jon and use a old tripod from a bust halogen light I have.
  22. Nice 1 Paul and hodge. You off for some autumnal walkys up t hills this time Paul?
  23. Ah so that's why you were asking if I was near there, big old stump that johny, had it gon softer or harder with age? Did some very old oak stumps last week and it was like grinding kerb stone!
  24. Bit of a call out yesterday willow splitting over a road so gave it a good pollard then a lovely split ash to winch down today.
