    Loads of caselaw about assault, battery, trespass to the person, consent etc comes from RAF hi jinks. You know, good, clean fun like setting someone on fire while buggering them. Normal workplace horseplay.
  2. It’s your chipper.
  3. 1% advantage of not pinching rope 50% disadvantage of possibility of rigging rope jumping into ring sling rope 99% disadvantage of constantly worrying about the above Admirable attempt to optimise but a problemless solution IMO. Rings work fine in normal configuration.
  4. Fair enough. Whatever works for you. You’ll have the option when you make the plate anyway. I assume the Multione has enough piping for grab AND rotate? I’d certainly try a clamp bucket for mixed materials but I’m almost exclusively trees atm. Certainly open to a bit of pikey work though. You make it look easy.
  5. Because it is good idea! What grab do you use on your articulating loader?
  6. Major advantage.
  7. I was carrying six or eight foot logs in battering ram configuration the other week. Mainly just me and the 90kg counterweight. A fat kid helped with some bigger ones. I also put it to you, doobin, that since we last discussed this you made a bracket to put one of your digger grabs on your Sherpa. Why on earth would you bother…
  8. I’d never noticed the hose routing on those. Looks like you could pull the rotate lock pin and the grab could safely go 90 degrees either direction? Mine come out of the side somewhere so if I’m snake dragging, I have to be more careful around left hand bends than rights.
  9. I assume you’re talking about the Qemists or Zardonic? I’ll be led by you on genre. I don’t listen to enough electronic music to confidently say. I think of them as 70% electronic with 30% metal thrown in, much like Bring Me the Horizon are the reciprocal 70% metal and 30% electronic.
  10. Loads of bands' material has been consistently commenting on social and political issues. Not everyday chart material, especially government charts, but it's out there. Very few songs explicitly call for the chancellor of the exchequer to be pulled apart by two Transit vans but I haven't got the riff right yet.
  11. In conclusion
  12. A lot of Flogging Molly songs qualify but sometimes feel contrived.
  13. If anyone could understand the vocals of System of a Down songs, they would count as protest songs.
  14. Also in dnb/metal, Zardonic has a pretty consistent message.
  15. For those of a dnb persuasion.
  16. Is 2009 too old? (I'm aware it's an older song).
  17. They're mostly rooted in libertarian/anarchist ideology. Sometimes it's a struggle to comport and rhyme lyrics about the evolution of commodity market economies into the bimetallic and, later, fiat money systems. Sometimes you get lucky and it works. I also do like to think I'm one of a very small cadre who has written a rap metal track that includes nods to both Tony Martin shooting thieves and the Manchester and Salford Yeomanry killing a child at the Peterloo massacre of 1819. It's a work in progress.
  18. Mick Dempsey did a post comparing grab types not long ago. Might help. Price sounds good btw. Good luck.
  19. I'm working on it.
  20. You can do a lot of damage with an errant tree or tree part. And indeed a lot of damage with badly fettled brakes.

    Chain grinder..

    Are you old enough to have learned on Whitworth?! It's either that or your boss was German and you were making Obendorf Mausers.
  22. My favourite way to condemn vegans to starvation or compromise is to point out that anything petroleum based is made from dinosaurs etc. So if it was transported by anything other than a human with natural rubber shoes and a hemp rucksack, it’s off limits.
  23. Quite the opposite. I’m trying to establish for the benefit of all who read here whether to place stock in your opinions. Same as everyone does for everyone. I’m sure you don’t take it personally (but please don’t if you were beginning to). I like reading your posts as it happens.
  24. It can’t be spoken for as a whole because I won’t be spoken for by Gristwoods and I doubt Gristwoods want to be spoken for by me.
