That about sums it up, but let's be fair on Logan, he may surprise us all yet, when he comes up with a clever not-thought-of-before trick that works best on a small saw with big spikes

If you get off on that sort of thing I'll gladly do that for you:thumbup:

Like this?

Sounds quite cheap considering a year's supply of dail disposables is about the same price (?). My mum's just had eye surgery (exceptionally fast cataracts, losing sight completely in weeks) and she had lasering as well as "de-misting". The surgery fixed her cataracts, but the lasering changed her world. When she came home she was amazed at how old and wrinkled my dad looks, how dusty her house is and more worrying; how clear all the road-signs were:thumbup:

Thanks guys, really helpfull advice there. I had not considered lasering, but will definately look into it! How much £'s ? I've got some hard lenses (I think, should last a month?) waiting at the opticians and will get them thursday when I'm near there. Does anyone that wear lenses also wear glasses (maybe for particular jobs, light or to leek clever?) as I thought it would be good to have a pair as a back-up? Looking forward to less staring at stuff and less tired eyes!

Not very nice about his spelling are they?
Daniël Bos replied to TimberCutterDartmoor's topic in The Lounge
I think stumpgrinder's (slightly off-thread) comment was meant to convey his opinion, that this behaviour does not constitute bullying? -

Daniël Bos replied to TimberCutterDartmoor's topic in The Lounge
I'm fully in agreement with you. This behaviour is not the way to teach those less educated/bothered/talented about their spelling mistakes though. As someone for who English is a second language these things seem to bother me more than most. There is no excuse for this type of bullying behaviour though. -
looking for good tree nursery
Daniël Bos replied to chestnut's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
One would hope that in the 2 years that have gone by since he asked the question, he's found some trees. Welcome to the Forum:thumbup: -
Did you screw them down onto a pallet?
-
What would the implications of this be for the background tree? Would the panic fruiting quickly try and use up as much of the trees reserves as it could find or would it settle down again after "realising" the background tree was still there/fine?
-
I was thinking just that! But then, how big is a big pond? How big is a small lake? I've been called out to dig a lake before and when I got there to do the survey they wanted a 4x6m pond.....

I did this last year, cut to the bone severing the tendons. I was quite proud when they didn't believe it even needed stitches at first as the cut was so neat it has just about closed up whilst waiting to see a nurse. This was after the cast came off.. Why did I let the nurse pick the colour?

Will this fit my ms170 as well? would look well wicked with my chromed bar!

I have astgimatism (fat eyes). They've made me up some lenses that should last a month, but don't really know anything about them. I'll also have a pair of glasses for if/when I get fed up with the lenses.
-
Would it work to take just one slice at a time like that? So rather than a whole grid of blades, just one big strong "slice-blade" with divisions in? A bit like the Tempest splitter, but smaller divisions?
-
Thanks for these gems guys, I'm leaning toward lenses more from my limited experience of glasses. I just don't know thing like: how much hassle is it in the mornings, do they move out of position, what are they like with dust, extreme cold/heat etc. I'm not that worried about the looks ELG, and I'm fairly certain I'll never start a fashion of any sort as the last time I bought "new" new clothes in a shop (other than ppe and socks) was over 15 years ago... I did look into the prescription safety glasses but they don't seem to make any with just single lenses, they're all just safety specs with extra lenses stuck on? This is one of the other things that make me think lenses, with my glasses I found I had to turn my head a lot more, rather than turning my eyes. Peripheral vision was quite blurry because of this. Do lenses turn with you eyes?
-
That did work before, maybe search has a "shelf-life"? It was a link to the results of using the search facilities on this very forum as that question has been asked 10986535678 times before, this year alone. (I might be slightly out on the numbers, but not far off)
-
Thanks Ted, I always wear safety specs when working but found I could not fit them over the glasses and the glasses are not nearly as safe as the safety ones due to them only being at the front where the saftey specs I wear are "wraparound" style. How important are clean hands for lenses? I'm a bit of an urchin most of the time...
-
I think it may be, is it?

Surely the use of one potentially offensive word that quite adequately described my vision was no reason to delete the whole post? I may offcourse have done something else wrong entirely but am too thick to realise? The question was a simple one, I've recently been convicted to corrective eyewear. I've worn glasses for a few weeks but found them really annoying to wear and I eneded up breaking them quite quickly. I've ordered some lenses but have no experience with those either. What's your opinion on glasses versus lenses, and why?
-
I used a word that was perhaps mildly offensive (rhymes with night and is synonimous with excrement) but apart from that I can't see what I did wrong?
