  1. Ergonomics, modularity, mounting stuff. I'd prefer a bolt action for the lower profile, quietness and not losing brass but you're looking at Tubbs or tube chassis stuff for that, the latter of which you then have to make sure feeds.

    STHIL MSA 220 T

    It really pissed me off. I already use a 220 backhandle so the battery novelty wasn't enough to win me over.
  3. Anybody got an AR for sale?
  4. Scruffy but effective, like me. Does anyone know what the fibreglass lid thing is? Looks a bit like the top of a bio-digester that you see poking out of lawns. Pretty good size for capping a pallet.
  5. Good choice. 500 with 25 is lovely.

    I likewise can update about my whingeing to Stihl. Someone fairly competent sounding from Camberley got in touch and was convincingly interested in my concerns. Whether Germany listen to him is another thing.
  7. And about a grand.
  8. Pull a bullet and put the case in the electric toaster for the wife to discover. She could also discover one with an electric vacuum cleaner. Centrefire primers certainly pop when sucked up.
  9. Drill a blind 5mm hole about an inch deep in some stout metal. Bullet down and whack the back with a hammer. See if either the hammer, the case or the bullet makes a hole in the roof of the shed. Could also blow shrapnel into your face, neck, chest etc.
  10. Whatever happened to Paddy the aircraft mechanic?
  11. Aware you're probably busy with the build (not to mention all the dogging, transgender gimp keeping, vegancentric, sex-positive fruit sports and similar degenerative pursuits) but I indeed would love to see more on this thread.
  12. I've often thought this when confronted with the dogma of the branch bark collar pruning cut. Why not stub off a branch at ten inches and let the stub rot rather than the union? Because it looks shit obviously but otherwise why not?
  13. Tradesmen who buy their children GAP outfits and playstations but don’t pass on practical skills absolutely appall me. Raising generations of poofters.
  14. Is there a thread with more of your machine on it?
  15. On further investigation, their website is shit so the prices could be whatever.
  16. Solway Board sounds similar to Stokbord and is cheaper.
  17. Stokbord if that helps your Googling, Mick.
  18. That’s a pic supposedly showing 6mm. Does indeed look ideal if it’ll take machine weight too. Would bend round shed edges and roofs nicely.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    Dug, in paradise, sniffin at the crotches of 72 virgins. Doug, withoot a co-pilot, struggling to achieve the same in Coldstream.
  20. That doesn’t follow. If the conservation press is to be believed, just about all the reds are facing those frustrations of not being able to establish territory.
  21. I’ve been meaning to buy plastic boards for ages. What’s thick enough to run a micro skidder on and thin enough to bend round a house corner?
  22. I’m great at fixing stuff with whatever’s within arm’s reach. Guess how often I do the full fix. My entire life is the bungee cord on the chipper throttle.
  23. I always find it funny when shooters etc are giving it the big one about being custodians of the countryside, killing greys to protect trees and let the reds back in. I bet the reds are just as bad for trees.
  24. This one’s a beauty because it sounds like Wigan Council are into people trafficking. Children's Strategic Business and Intelligence Improvement Lead - Wigan, Greater Manchester JOBS.THEGUARDIAN.COM A key member of the senior leadership team within Children’s Services...
  25. Wear crocs until something better or some money turns up.
