  1. That's strange,he seems to be online. Was a low trick to play by whoever it was in the op.
  2. Thats stunning Sloth!
  3. Top post Silky,& another thought,people who have a low self esteem are most often decent sensitive & kind individuals. Maybe try to isolate the root causes in writing,& learn ways to deal with them,this will bounce along the line & improve your self value,as you will realise you are in control of whats toxic to you.
  4. But if you have the likes of Felixthechopper on the end of it,it is going to need brakes not more motive power,my design takes the, erm,operater error out of the system,if he hits a clients wall flat out it will crumple,absorbing some of the energy involved,thus preventing said operater destroying the clients property. In effect I have tried to make it fool proof!
  5. Well with all the rain we have had nationwide,I feel it only fair to introduce the new patented wet ground waste removal aid,I expect most discerning groundies will be needing one to stay on top of their game,speed rated at well beyond the likes of Felix the chopper downhill & out of control,any takers?
  6. Weather forecast....
  7. Well I'm still here,the world looks the same,that comes as a relie
  8. Trust you Felix!:001_rolleyes:001_smile: Funny thing was,at one point I could hear spike swearing down the chimney,& he could no doubt hear me cussing up it!
  9. Thanks mate!
  10. Couple more of my work in progress chop,daughter tries it for size. The bike is getting built in my front room! IMG_1377 by geoff321, on Flickr IMG_1376 by geoff321, on Flickr
  11. Great idea,I have one to put on here,will get the details of it,but I do remember its a very old stihl.
  12. It may have already got mentioned,but if it's the stale petrol issue that puts you off a petrol saw,take a look at Aspen fuels,not cheap,but a shelf life of 3 years,which opens up your target choices. I have only heard good things about the stihl cordless saw,but it will not compete with a decent petrol,& if you are doing firewood for more than the occasional fire it may hold you back a little by comparison. I may get shot for this,but training is expensive,although FR Jones & son do a more tailored training I believe,or hire a pro to teach you for a day,should cost you less than full on training. Chainsaw trousers ,toe capped boots & a chainsaw helmet would be advised for your ppe. If you do go for a petrol saw,get back on here & ask for some specific advice on your choices regards budget & target wood size.
  13. Top news mate,just fantastic!!!:thumbup:
  14. Nice one Jon,but you realy should have the 3120,right,I'm off before the flack starts!
  15. Congrats to your misses & yourself,the wives do most of the hard work in giving us our kids,but we do have to oil the cogs!

  17. I have had potential clients like this,& generally give them a wide berth.
  18. I dont think its going to improve your climbing,but you might feel bright eyed & bushy tailed Pat,dont eat the beaver though,or you might be well be damned:001_huh:

  21. I'm hankering for a good quality light mig welder,about 160 max amps. My pld one is getting near the end of its usefull life. Choices choises,Portamig looks very nice.
  22. Looking very nice Mark!
  23. Thats heartbreaking,I hope you can get sorted out ok.
  24. The discs were a black carbon looking material. Shame to see such a lovely car brought down to this,but I had to laugh when I realised just what it was.
