Aye, that too. As ever, I want backups to backups.

A friend recently reminded me of the following, excellent phrase. “Lack of preparation on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.”

I have a plan to one day have a box trailer with an electric screw type briquette maker in the back, drive it to joinery workshops, use their electricity and their dry sawdust to extrude briquettes straight into the trailer and then park it next to the burner at home.

Not Aintree by any chance?

What’s your charity work?
-
Used engine oil and brake fluid instead of wax.

Forget Stihl then. Most of their saws have electronically controlled carbs and the 500 is fuel injected.

I like your thinking.

In which case can you tell John that if he wants to save a few quid then a 362 with a 20" bar would probably do more than he thinks. 20" is a lot more bar than 14" and, more importantly, the power will be a revelation to him. If he wants 25", a 500i will pull it superbly and I concur that the balance is excellent.

I'll take instruction if it's as good as your idea for the chicken skin. That sounds excellent. I'm generally nervous about putting garlic in early. I've overcooked some a couple of times recently.

Egg fried rice. Fry three eggs, spazzed round a bit with a wooden spoon. Add rice from last night that everybody keeps telling me will give me botulism. Chilli, garlic and pepper. A slash of sesame oil, the secret of my oriental success. Shake up a dash of soy sauce and some vinegar in a jar and put that in at the end to clean the pan. If I was going to add MSG, I’d probably do it at the jar stage.

Windblown tree in neighbours

Tree or house? -
What are your current saws, John?

Copper Beech next to house extension - viable??

As above. Get it out. -
Do you get any leaking in storage after knocking the pin in? I’ve been a coward about doing it.

Leylandii.

Couldn’t be bothered to find Mick’s hairy three strand thread so posting here. A refreshingly small and piss simple sycamore. Went deliberately old school with the DRT. Did use a pair of rings. Should have crotched it to stay in keeping.
-
What do you use it for and why did you choose it over a more conventional machine?
-
Those chisel knives look excellent. A stainless one would be ideal for the pile of tools on my workbench that never get put away.

£16 I think so a budget item. Probably the worst steel available but it does little day to day stuff fine. Bought on a whim because it was heavily discounted and it's turned out to be brilliant. The flip close is handier than you think. I know the s 139 and offensive weapons basics and one of my Regina v AHPP wins was a very short s 139 pointed article joust about a corkscrew on a Swiss Army Knife. Annoyingly didn't make it past plea and case management. The laws on weapons (or what most people think of when you say weapons) are bollocks. I've had to surrender juggling balls and flasks of tea at court security when I could just as easily lash and strangle people with my belt, bray them with a heavy file or break a bathroom mirror for a slasher/stabber. A noteworthy majority of court buildings also have internal balconies. Ideal for throwing people over or hoying a bin at someone two floors below. Regulating weapons is pointless. Guns don't kill people, rappers do.

153 square inches, about three times that of a Timberwolf 230 and three times the 25hp of the weedy new diesel. No surprise. I prescribe 300hp instead. Trust me, I'm a doctor.

What size infeed?
-
A friend has a UKPK. Lovely thing. My daily is a CRKT with a really slippy detente. I think there’s a thrust bearing in there. The absolute lack of lock reminds me to not try anything too heavy with it and to go and get the right tool. Most useful thing about it is one handed opening AND CLOSING.

Aye. Same. I've had a plan for ages to build one with two engines. Redderneck. Surely more is wasted making a smaller engine work hard, running it into the no stress, waiting for the revs to come back up when it could be chipping. Accelerating in a car drinks fuel compared to motorway cruising, even with the high speed and (wind) resistance. So? What's the harm in having 80hp on tap and it never hitting the no stress.
