  1. Won’t do later. Bolam’s done a good job just now.
  2. Short but doesn’t fully explain what retrenchment is.
  3. As it happens, I am pretty good at that. Will do later.
  4. You didn’t have time to write a short explanation so you wrote a long one. Anyone think they can do it in 10% of the words?
  5. God this is bullshit. How long until the presence of a heater will be enough to classify a vehicle as sufficiently luxurious for higher rate theft?
  6. I did the stump in part to push buttons.
  7. Come forth, @woody paul and claim your prize. 210kg on the nose. @peds. Get in the sea you loose lipped wanker.
  8. Good idea. Could protect/disguise one on a mule too.
  9. What’s the box?
  10. Somebody is spot on btw.
  11. Best let the mornings and backs have a go as well. Answer at teatime tomorrow.
  12. Play fair. No commenting if I’ve already told you.
  13. Haven’t had one of these for a while. Cherry. No leaf. 7” butt, 44’ to tips. IMG_4861.MOV There’s no such thing as a stupid guess. This is a safe space.
  14. More photos and/or sketch map to show surroundings please. Would also be interested to see the work spec approved for the prune. It’ll be on the planning portal for your council. Search by your address.
  15. As I told mum the other day, if you don't like it, just put it in the fire.
  16. Pickarooning, when it's going well, is godly.

    ArbDogs? Pics!

    Gave me the slip big time while I was looking at some oak butts. New record. Had to collect him by car from a paddock in the next village. Presumably found a barbed wire fence on the way.

    Sailor’s afternoon in pictures.
  19. Pickaroons are like knots. They have to hold but they also have to untie easily. You only want the point good ENOUGH at sticking in.

    Rate my oiler

    No. Did a full battery cutting with it oiling with no side cover and no chain and had a full tank left at the end. The only thing I've come up with overnight is that the chain drivers aren't grabbing the oil and pulling it along the bar groove. It's an end of life chain. Have a much newer bar on another saw and fresher and fresh chains in stock. Job for later. Raining. Still annoyed.

    Rate my oiler

    I threw the chain the other day and had some peened drivers. Filed most of them but did shove one scratchy one back in. That's not enough to wreck the groove though.

    Rate my oiler

    16" 3/8 picco (the wider gauge one). Nose is fine. Ran the nose through a bath of oil. Didn't prime the whole bar. Nor should I have to. Like you say, weird. It's a relatively big bar for the saw but it's always oiled before (usually about three quarters of a tank to a battery), right up until I used three or four tanks of this bio shit. I paintbrush dust or airline the oil cap before filling most of the time. I stay sharp so don't create fine dust. I blow the whole thing out every ten or fifteen batteries. Bar has probably only done four or five chains.
