Been watching this guy for a while. Seems like a decent bloke. Certainly one of the calmer American presences on tree youtube. Decided to post here because of the quite striking stuff about the root zone at 0:38 and 5:05 but it then turns into a video of just him quietly doing a good job. Particularly enjoyed the gobs pointing in all directions for lifting, lowering and swinging hingeing. He knows how to use a GRCS.

Yeah. Sod that.

Steel does help now you mention it. Will approach one with a more open mind next time I’m at a shop. It might help probably the worst aspect of my climbing, which is my actual climbing. I’m slow and tangly. I only get anything done because I can rig well. Now the Petzl EJECT. There’s something that no amount of convincing will make me trust. What’s the death toll we know about so far?

What the Gyro does looks great. How it does it looks like it's going to split and paralyse you.

I love 'em. 220 is my main saw.
-
Powerful it may be but it won't have the duty cycle. The battery and/or motor will overheat going flat out for any period of time. Whereas you could plumb a 261 to a jerry can of mix and it would sing until it ran dry.

I can't remember whether I have or not but I feel quite sure about it. I do recall having a try of something at Gustharts a while ago. Maybe it was a 300. Were they out not this last APF but the one before?

Can it fxck.

No, Stubby. I'm under seventy.

Urban Dictionary: OG WWW.URBANDICTIONARY.COM OG used to mean Original Gangster allthough some poeple these days use OG as a quicker way of saying... Man I love synths.
-
You’re aware the OG radio series music was The Eagles btw? Synthesis is a fabulously deep rabbit hole in the musical world, especially back then. I imagine their gear took up a small room and looked like it could launch ICBMs?

Late to the thread and haven’t read it but you’re taking about the Golgafrincham B Ark from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Telephone sanitisers, marketing executives etc. They crashed on earth, wiped out the indigenous cavemen and we’re descended from them.

Fixed without surgery. Looks good on the stats too.

Aye. That'll relax her... Since you've mentioned it though, I'm not missing the opportunity to shoehorn in a link to my band's new EP. You have to be shameless when you have more driving licence points than fans.
-
George is still alive. Every time I put her somewhere, she somehow manages to end up shuffling up a few inches further than the last shuffle from the last graceless heap she was left in. She flaps and gripes at me a bit harder each time I pick her up. Small improvements. Play on for now. Maybe I'll learn something.
-
Aye. I called that firm up the thread and the guy looked down the phone at me like I'd asked whether they were halal. When you say business btw, do you mean VAT registered business or just business?
-
Bastards. Irish bastards but probably the same here.

Post the link if it’s still open on your phone please. The cookie options banner is in the way of the picture of the girl sucking a cock.

I’m probably clenching more than grinding. I remember I did keep catching myself with my back right teeth together and thinking it was bad for them. I did in fact do a long drive for the first time in a while the other day but also a day climbing for the first time in a while. And have had a bout of (bad) ear pain for the first time in a while. I think we’re on the right track. I’m a very relaxed and unstressy driver btw. I find it more boring and depressing than anything else.
-
Intermittent electrical fault a good analogy. I had a very annoying couple of months where I was trying to get to the dentist while it was bad. It kept coming and going as appointments were available and not. Should have just barged in and been demanding in hindsight. I don’t think I lead a particularly stressful life. This annoying thing that I can’t diagnose is probably one of the more stressful parts. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy in that respect, worse when I’m stressed because I’m stressed about it. I tried wearing the side of my head out by biting down on things HARD. Didn’t ease it much.
-
As an aside, does anyone know why these muffs have VAT on them? They’re PPE.
-
Gareth. Respectfully, I don’t want your opinion. Please don’t post.

In the same way that Americans deify old squarebody pickups etc, we will one day yearn for 1998 Transits. They’re effectively the Brit equivalent, only they don’t look like it because they don’t have a long bonnet and a gun rack. They do have decent sized beds though, unlike what we think of as pickups here, Hilux, Ranger etc. And strong gearing for weight, and business-favourable tax treatment. “Oh but the yank pickups are all 4wd and massive engines. They’re much better!” They’re not all 4wd and they might be big displacement V8s but they’re yank so they make about three horse per litre. Ever driven a remapped 2.4 Transit? They pull extremely well I think.

That question occupied my mind for about three years. I can’t remember the answer. I think I moderately clamped down on one side but wasn’t grinding back and forth. The more trustworthy dentist I had said he didn’t see evidence of grinding. I thought I’d tracked it down to TMJ for a while. No clicking or grinding though. The audiologist who looked at me for the IEMs was the biggest help in years. Straight away said, “Yeah. Obvious. Loads of wax and crap in your ear. Gets wet, swells up, pushes onto the eardrum, hurts.” But then I had a bout of it not long after my ears were hoovered out so can’t be sure about that either.

Because they’re expensive, people wouldn’t charge them, then people would break them, if they didn’t steal them.
