  1. iPads are great for showing images. Tech is the future! ! I'd be happy for a copy too tony!
  2. iPhone 4 here. Have tried otterbox, hated the rubber outer, never wanted to go in my pocket. Got a case mate tank instead. Much better and actually feels more substantial too. For £40!
  3. Now I think about it after doing it and writing the previous posts, I realised I should have just done the one or even left it. Ah well. It doesn't get used that much anyway. Still had sore wrists after all that back and forth motion! I know for next time when I find something undesirable!
  4. A gutter downspout bracket. Made of iron. Covered with 30-40 years of growth. It took a chunk out of one tooth so they all had to come down. Not happy!
  5. I sharpened my 36" bar twice, one of the times I needed 30 strokes to get the cutters back sharp. Didn't enjoy that. I then did a 20" bar with it. I think it's blunt now as I've done a few other chains with it too now.
  6. Don't use pornhub!
  7. That is amazing. How did you make that piece on the stool look so much like an iPad?
  8. I like the idea of the trailer for it, however it's limited to carrying only the chipper. I have an ifor Williams p7 that hold the chipper and 200kg of anything else I want!
  9. The stick on ones were featured in the farmers weekly recently. Try their site it might get you a bit closer.
  10. You will certainly be better off talking about something that everyone will relate to. Fungi is a good one, but I think it will perplex more than 50% of the audience. Restoration pruning and pruning for the trees benefit would be a good one, there's a lot of climber to like reductions, your going to appeal to more than 75% I would think with that topic alone. If its in June, record a video and I'll watch it on that! I'll be gutted if I can't see it!
  11. it was tough, they cut most of the parts out that had my shorts in!
  12. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MX145Tu4MHY&feature=related]Best Beer Ad Ever - Thirsty For Beer HD - YouTube[/ame] if only
  13. I don't have pics of any that aren't already up! Apart from this one!
  14. I think reductions are one of the most satisfying jobs!
  15. You will love it. Had mine a year now and it's not missed a beat!
  16. the ISC ones are good and difficult to beat (unless you go for DMM!) ive got one of the 50kn pulleys that i cant use because my rope is too big. id be willing to part with it!
  17. I've got an led lenser h7 and it's brilliant. Very powerful.
  18. got a bit of cash i want to lay out on some books, budget of £40-£50. Ive got a good collection already, what would be some good extra books to add to the collection?
  19. hah i could imagine you doing that going round whip!
  20. is that what you do at the weekends outside fruiting season?
  21. you should know what checks you need to do on your machines. saws are the parts you lean in CS30, and what you are shown to maintain. chipper should be simple, its an engine, on a trailer, with a spinning wheel with blades.
  22. there was some excellent spalting in this tree, although most of it has been burnt now! ill get a shot of a branch union that had some nice spalting in, would make a great effect on a photo!
  23. for that price and it seems like some are having issues, its going to take some convincing for me to even consider them as a next pair, my airstreams are great after 18 months.
  24. carry on as you are, if you had a good summer with that company get on with them again if you can, and just do everything in your ability to get the jobs done well. you seem to have a good idea, just keep doing it!
  25. Such high quality in fact, it's almost like real wood!
