    Yeah, strange one.

    Like most peeps I hope Tyson knocks him on his ass, but 57?  As I know a lot of power disappears in your 50s, and as big a dick as he appears to be Jake Paul is no powderpuff.

    Tyson has incredible technique, even if he hasn’t got the same outright power he had at 18 I’m sure he still has plenty! His shots come from his feet, and his speed appears to still be mega.
    There is absolutely no way the non-powderpuff has a chance (unless it’s a fix)…

  2. The husky fast chargers are total crap - I had exactly the same issue. Apparently it is an internal fuse that blows but it needs so to be soldered in so isn’t repairable (but this is only what I’ve heard). 
    The cheaper husky non-fast chargers are seemingly more reliable!

    You can hear someone coming on Insa Turbos from about a mile away though, have a look on eBay and buy a set from someone that couldn't live with the noise.

    We have run them on the back of our tippers for the last 15 years - they send verge-roost miles into the air and coat anything you are towing in massive clods of turf but will regularly keep you moving when otherwise you’d be sat waiting for a tow!

    I bought a Titan breaker recently on the strength of borrowing my friends for a day.

    Seems very well made for the money.

    Heavy and a bit vibey, but it’s a breaker not a duster!

    Think you could have saved a few quid and been better set up for digging holes if you’d bought a spade mate…

    I don’t know that episode, but I bet Kirk shagged her.

    He’d already given her a pearl necklace by the looks of it.

  6. I don’t personally think the 12x rule is bad - it’s something that buildermorons can physically measure and it gives pretty decent protection (and is easy to police if the planners have the will to do so). The 12x rule gives a great deal of protection and future success to retained trees.

    (It is also fairly straightforward to justify offsetting/manipulating the rpa if the rooting environment doesn’t fit the ‘perfect circle’ basic calculation).

    I’d be concerned that if rpas end up ‘growing’ or becoming more complicated (ie more expensive) then there will be even more speculative felling than the current 5837 system forces (and it is already pretty bad!).

    True,but on paper the power difference between the 170 and 180 was virtually negligible,but in real World use the 170 was incredibly shitty but the 180 was actually quite a capable little saw 🤔

    I think they were the same saws just running different gauge chains possibly?
