yeah seen some of his vids, better ones for this saw i'm doing now is some 360 builds i've watched before it came, made it all go pretty easy so far. Right now i'm stuck as cant find the long t27 driver i bought to attach the cylinder had it yesterday!
-
I ordered a complete parts saw from a website called hutzl couple of weeks ago, yesterday it arrived! Made a start on it this morning and have got as far as installing the piston. Thought I'd share a few photos as I go along. So far the only things I've spent money on outside the kit itself is some liquid gasket to make sure there's no leaks and some wet and dry sand paper to shine up the bottom of the cylinder, again to ensure a good deal when I put it on in a bit

None that I can see. Just seen one guy on yet another facebook thread saying he's 'made' £5k this week but isn't selling because he heard the price is going from 10k to 50k next year. Riiiight, so is it a currency or investment then? How can it be an investment when it doesn't generate anything and its sole value is speculation. How can it be a currency when to spend your digital code you need sell it to someone else for real money?

I'll buy some bitcoins and do that deal! Still think it's all a bit of a fad though tbh
-
Just tell people it'll be worth £200 next week and they should tell whoever they sell it to too it'll be worth £400 the week after and they'll sell like hotcakes oh and make an app and website with nice graphics and advertise heavily on Facebook

new incoming jobs just stopped last week, eerily quiet, hopefully pick up this week now the black friday nonsense stopped. However 2 big jobs I prices earlier in the year came in, one I priced in may, Can I do before xmas? Yes.. except they've not bothered applying for permission and in a conservation area and another I priced in august that didn't even respond to say got the quote wants to know if the price is still valid as wants to go ahead soon. Can't puzzle some people out
-
Happy days, hope you've still got it! Nice bonus for you
-

Don't know why your being aggressive over this, hard drive goes down you potentially lose all your coins, perhaps reading is hard for you too. Lets call it a house fire or your hard drive goes down and you've lost you bit of a4 printed paper, its all gone. Bit less safe than the government insured £85 you cant lose if a bank fails wouldn't you say? Lets see this 50k respected pundit then. If you're gonna be passive aggressive again please don't bother replying cos I wont
-
riiiight... so my point was valid that if the harddrive goes you can lose your coins and you have nothing to backup this 50k valuation?
-
got to ask, who are these respected pundits and what do they base that valuation on? also, taken from a bitcoin site Protection from accidental loss In the past many people have accidentally lost bitcoins because of failed backups, forgotten hard drives or corrupted SSD devices. Through bitter experience it was found that one of the most practical storage mediums is pencil and paper. The private keys of a bitcoin wallet are encoded into random words from a dictionary which can be written down. If the your hard drive crashes you can find the paper with the mnemonic phraseand restore the entire wallet. All good wallet software ask their users to write down the mnemonic recovery phrase of the wallet. It is worthwhile to keep copies in several locations so that even if your home burns down and nothing remains you can still recover the bitcoins.
-
Not only that if your harddrive goes bang you've lost the lot
-
Got the same email today, had a look and they selling a few bits at rrp with a free pair of gloves or whatever thrown in. Can get a better deal from a dealer so can't see many people bothering
-
nope they couldnt stop it, they cant even stop us streaming films and tv shows despite blocking all the torrent sites
-
i totally agree, no point doing it short term, i'm looking more for pension so 30-40 years slow and steady and hopefully reliable growth as over the decades it always had. Pensions are too vunerable to being raided by governments or whatever
-
I dont do retail but can see your issue, but given the choice wouldn't people be more inclined to do a transfer which they understand rather than mess about with bitcoins and save you the % perhaps with a slight discount as an incentive and youd still be up?
-
I agree, ive started a stocks and shares isa and buying stuff with proven track records of growth over 5 years plus
-
yeah its been around ages, and noone paid a blind bit of notice til apps and adverts to buying and selling in facebook appeared and the pyramid scheme kicked off
-
How can you buy bitcoins or withdraw bitcoins to your currency without a bank account when the whole backbone of this is supposed to be making the process quick and easy? Sending money abroad, I bought some saw bits from china last week, typed in my paypal password and the parcel is on the way. doesnt get much easier
-
they only making money if sell, if looking at big numbers on a screen and dont withdraw and spend it they made nothing
-
Yeah have done which why have come to my conclusions. It boils down to 2 elements to me. The overview how its going past 6 months that screams pyramid scheme worries me, and then the closer look about the purpose of it and I just cant see many people transferring pounds to bitcoins to send to aunty jill in japan who will turn them to yen whan a simple bank transfer does the job already. people like simple, thats why windows did well when msdos didnt and iphones did so well
-
I struggle when hear this. I get and send bank transfers most days, instantly, for free? as far as i can gather these 'currencies' are purely for hiding financial transactions or buying naughty things off the dark web
-
no its not, they just make a fork now and then, invent a new one and voila everyone signs up again on the promise it'll skyrocket
