  1. Top thread mate. Great Pics.
  2. Quite right too. Now go and think about what you have done. You're a very naughty boy.:lol:
  3. I have a 390- its fantastic.
  4. are we keeping you up mate?
  5. I think Timber Cutter Dartmoor has had similar experience with a clutch on a car- he may be able to shed more light on this tricky situation.
  6. Darren- will you stop it please for the greater good. This guy thinks that you are being serious- you are only encouraging him. He doesnt appear to relize that you are being sarcastic!!! His ego is big enough already, and he will only carry on advocating techniques that are unnecessary, time consuming and extremely dangerous, not to mwntion very stupid. Someone out there will try one of his moronic ideas and end up dead.
  7. Thanks for the advice guys. Plenty to think about there.
  8. I hadnt thought of them. Cheers Dave!
  9. LOL Nowt wrong, except past experience has taught me that vermeer uk have a VERY healthy mark up on bits, and as i can get identical bearings for less than half price, i thought id look for a feed roller not from them too. Its within budget, but i like to save a bit if poss.
  10. Good idea mate, if required. I wouldnt attempt it, but know just the man for the job. He has done tipes and flights on tractor driven post hole borers very successfuly, so this shouldnt be a problem. When i get it out i reckon i will be able to sharpen it anyway- they dont look very worn at all TBH.
  11. Anybody know if its possible to getr non genuine/ pattern parts for a 9" vermeer feed roller. I am going to attack mine with the grinder to sharpen it, but would ideally like a new one.....but they are 800+vat from vermeer. If it is past sharpening then i will want a new one. Or is anybody breaking a 935?
  12. Yeah- its a great reason. Theres too many customers out there anyway at the mo.:lol:
  13. The same.............check out dadios comment about americans earlier....
  14. In post 35 you insult ACUf by calling him clueless. In post 57 you insult the owner of this site by accusing him of inexperience (he has about 20 years of it, which is about the same as you as you evidently started in 1989) In post 92 YOu refer to ad15 as an idiot. These are direct insults, your comment is hypocrisy. In post 88 you explain that you have never thought about how spring from the rootplates may affect the butt :"Sometimes a fresh root plate drops back in the hole... sometimes it doesn't. I never thought about the fact that they could be spring loaded by the remaining roots.. thanks for that!", yet in post 26 you say you have used this cut 100s of times. In post 61 you describe with certaimty what will happen to a rootplate:"That is wrong.. if the pieces is still attached to the rootplate, as the rootplate drops back into the hole, the but will follow. BUT that is extremely rare, as the rootplate will not drop until after separation in most cases. The snap cut also assures the faller of a clean separation" So what exactly do you know??
  15. Walk away mate. She probably wouldnt have paid on time anyway. They are the customers to weed out.
  16. here you go... Water-injected meat: the UK's latest food scandal? If you are worried about food standards, dont buy ANYTHING from a supermarket that is in a packet.
  17. Totally agree- this is awesome!!!
  18. hahahaha- that wasnt mudslinging or an insult Dadio. I said that what you said was codswallop, which isnt an insult, it is my opinion of the nonsense you are passing off as safe working practices, and the reference to a cocky newbie wasnt an insult either- it was a piece of friendly advice. If i had said 'you ARE a cocky newbie', then that would have been an insult. What i said was not. A better grasp of the english language may well prepare you for an English forum:laugh1: As far as intelligence and mud slinging is concerned, you are actually giving a perfect demonstartion of a lack of the former, and a great example of the latter, which to me and all the others reading this little tirade will show you to be on the bback foot. What you fail to have grasped in your little attempt at belittling me, is that you are actually doing the mudslinging here, thus, yet again, contradicting yourself and diggin your hole deeper. Lets face it- you have shown an unnecessary and incredibly dangerous method of getting a windblown tree down, which flies in the face of years of sensible arboricultural teachings and experience, and hbve been picked up on it, which you dont like. May i suggest that next time you post a video, you take on board the constructive criticism, which may one day save your life, as opposed to insulting the owner of a site to which you have ionly just signed up, and then gone on to display an astonishing level of arrogance and, i am sorry to say, lack of intelligence. Carry on though- for you are providing more laughs than i have had from arbtalk in ages, thank you.
