You took a great risk there mate, Felix the whopper cherishes that lunch box highly, there are strange mystical and wondrous things hidden in that cavernous tardis...

That's a tough one Stubby, in an ideal world you would cut the brandy out,but to restrict the old boy might detract from his pleasure, I would concentrate for the moment on getting him recovered and take time to work out the best way to try and keep the brandy out of harms way. My old man got from being super fit to not walking in a very short time, and had to give up some of the things he gained motive to live for in the process,it proved his undoing not being able to enjoy his little pastimes, and he literally lost the will to live, he lasted a couple of years like that and it was on the whole rather miserable for us all here. I would much rather he lived with a few months of pleasure than the drawn out drudgery that he suffered, but to the same avail, there are some sacrifices that are worth making, and it sounds like the brandy is not pivotal in your dad's pleasure, so if you can cut it out without too much grief its a good move done tactfully.. I hope he makes a good recovery and you get him up and out fast, keep things bright and breezy for him.

I had a woman client with a broken ankle who told me she was flat on her back for a week getting screwed and plated....ahem.

:lol:

If it happens once (more likely than 5times..), then you have done the right thing by getting them where they need to be asap. Spend all your time worrying about the what iffs gets you nowhere, just deal with circumstances like an emergency away from the job if and when it happens.

It's just a sign of the times mate.... I will get my coat...

Spot on:001_smile:

Each situation is different, deal with it as it deserves at the time, but if it was an absolute must get back, someone in peril, then whatever is the fastest method to get them where they need to be.

I think they got used as boat anchors too, and vibrate like mad when used.

Wherever the ring locating pegs dictate, and it might also be prudent to check the ring gap before whilst in the bore at various points, you don't want the ring gap too small or a failure is on the cards.

Congrats on your new saw.

It looks a bit of a fun one...

A London lawyer representing a wealthy art collector called and asked to speak to his client:* "James, I have some good news and I have some bad news."* The art collector replied, "I've had a terrible day; let's hear the good news first."* The lawyer said, "Well, I met with your wife today, and she informed me that she invested £5,000 in two pictures that* she thinks will bring a minimum of £5-10 million. I think she could be right."* James was delighted and enthusiastically replied, "Well done! My wife has a brilliant business acumen! You've just made my day. Now I know I can handle the bad news. What is it?"* The lawyer replied, "The pictures are of you and your secretary."* *

If you can't get a good shape to it and get the height the client wants by reduction a pollard does give oportunity to prune for new shape to some extent, once the new growth develops, but see what other opinions come up.

They cut well enough on a sharp chain,I have run a couple of them and they do the job, step up to a small pro saw and you notice the difference for sure.

Not easy to see in the picture, but value for money, and trying to achieve the customers aims, I would be considering a re pollard as an option.

It's a good saw, doesn't shine in any area, but it starts and runs, hastle free, just good quality, with enough poke to get the job done.

That's my experience of it too.

I would just do it for the cogs, probably get shot down for devaluing the trade though....

Cracking truck ty.

If you have a dealer near you have a look at the echo saws at least, they are all good.

I'm loosing a lot of clarity in compressing these, the originals have less distortions, honest!

One more, simple but I like separating things from the context they are in, shallow depth of field.

Nuva one..
