  1. Great tip,& good of you to post it.
  2. That cracked me up Stephen,very clever humour.
  3. Picked up my 200t from Spud after he modded it gently for me,I could do with giving the chain a brush over with the file,but it deffo holds its revs better in the cut,heres a short vid,the first saw is my standard 200 (with a new chain),the second the ported one. The vid does not do it justice,its got more go in the mid range for sure. Thanks Spud:thumbup1: MVI_0001 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!
  4. Thats a beauty,Liking the hazel walking stick idea.
  5. Thats all good positive news Predator,& getting those bills under control will take a lot of pressure out of the equation.
  6. Ive been meaning to get the place exorcised for a while now,but I think your dance might have done the trick. Was funny,the dog ran out the door looking over his shoulder all the way. No damage done that I can see,but my new neighbor tells me that there was a bit of crashing & bumping going on for a while.
  7. I tried to do Stephen's dance last night & the dog would not come back in the house for a full half hour,so I think a bit more practice is needed..
  8. 7.30 in the morning,where did this thread come from? Anyone know how to kill a peroni hangover?
  9. I'm going to take Hucks advise,after Iv'e walked the mutt,but your wrong on two counts mate; Cross Keys. & gout in my left big toe.
  10. Good advise,I shall take it.
  11. ,well got home tonight after a few,& did my first self portraits for the hell of it. Now it gets a little bit,erm self indulgent,so rip me to bits tell me I look my age,(52). I tried to be artistic with the second pic! All for a laugh & a shock factor... IMG_0008 by geoff321, on Flickr IMG_0003_2 by geoff321, on Flickr

    Heres a rosemary beetle eating & shifting faeces at the same time,great little things. IMG_1226 by geoff321, on Flickr
  13. Lovely big tree,& some great looking chip there,nice work.
  14. Had a great day,used most of my kit,the mewp,200t,346xp,ms460,& finished off with the 3120,(the blower doesn't get a mention),& got to shift on site about 8ton of pop rings,nice easy day tomorow reducing a reasonable sized willow,then back in the basket for a 'can you just' which actually pays & wraps up the week nicely. I took a little swing about ten days ago & got a nice stab in the back puncture wound from a dead branch/sprag,& today it was not giving me gip. Then reading the posts on this thread with a belly full of grub,job done,off to bed a happy chappy. & the sun shone all day long!!
  15. Thats bad news,there are not a lot of these machines out there,I hope that helps geting it back.
  16. I would go covert Mark after the old neck gyrating video,or they may have your guts for garters,
  17. Nasty looking tree to work on Mark,I reckon you got some extra brownie points from that.
  18. If that were mine it would have to have a fairy capstain winch bolted on,lovely motor:thumbup1:
  19. Good stuff Predator,it's been a nice day here, working out on the local estuary,the air & views were most invigorating!
  20. Dont envy you that job,looked a nasty climb,great video & smooth work too.
  21. Someone else will say it better,but the idle screw adjusts the off trigger (tickover)revs,by holding the carb buterfly partialy open,adjusting this screw opens or closes the carburettor opening. Th L screw adjusts the fuel/air mixture from tickover to maybe quarter or half throttle,so adjusting this will richen or lean out the low rev mixture,in some saws it will also have an effect on the H screw,which controls the mixture at high revs. Clear as mud.
  22. Thats a good comment.
  23. I for one would be gutted if aspen were to become unavailable. luckily more dealers are waking up to its existence.
  24. Cheers Spud,aiming at a sunday pickup if alls ready.
  25. I think that covers it in the above posts,nice find though.
