  1. Iv had several of his friction e2e's and they all arrived without the core exposed if that helps.
  2. Hay Jake, Go for the non dominant foot, gives the other leg the work out
  3. I went to sample a new chipper today and it was bright yellow! The engine didn't die and the revs stayed strong throughout, the infeed was pants only taking a branch as big as my thumb thick at a time - not liking the greenery, H&S was missing lol and the projection just about made it two feet into the back of the truck. For all the stuff I chipped I cleared up about 70% off the floor. Shame, no sale today
  4. Poison ivy 8m! was in the bargain bin so got one end spliced and decided to sample it. VT made in 10mm Sirius with fishermans, tried some 8mm op and failed to get the instant grip. Have a pinto with two ovals along with the vectran loop with thimble. Would put up an image but have no clue how
  5. Power to that man. What determination. Love it.
  6. Hi Dean, Alder love the wet so I would leave the drainage to do its thing for now. After talking with Ted Green from the Ancient Tree Forum about coppicing he spoke of the beaver technique !! basically just chop out about 50% of each stool and let the res grow on. He also said to leave the cuts about a foot from the ground. Think I remember reading that Alder is good for fence posts ? though not completely sure. Hope this helps.

  8. Hay buddy like many have said already were here and we listen. My wife is a health practitioner with a special interest in nutrition so reading your thread I asked her if there was anything you could do to help yourself a little extra. Anyways here it is, quit cafeen and sugar that means sweetners too. Check the labels of your food and drinks. Be well. Neil

  16. So Monkey boy after all the coments on the harness . . . what do you ride now?
