I'd ask you for £20 off that price unless you removed both the stickers without any trace remaining. If not I'd want the £10 per sticker advertising money:sneaky2: Had a bit of a row with an audi dealer once who'd put a few of his stickers on my car without permission. refused to give me any money for advertising his business. short story: small claims court (dutch equiv off) £500 off the bill... Unless per prior arrangement I find it annoying beyond belief that people seem to think it's ok to deface my property to advertise their business. When I work in somebody's garden, how would they feel If I spray-painted my website across their brickwork?

Without trying to be unfriendly.... I don't think you want a sawmill at all, you just immensely enjoy the delightful agony of indecisiveness:biggrin:

I'd want a single cab Landcruiser with the 4.2 td. 7 speed auto-box from a merc. Full exo-skelleton, bull bars etc. Extra long wheel-base. Both axles steering, selectable like in a telehandler. Hiab mounted just behind the cab, operable from the drivers seat with enough power and reach to operate in front of the vehicle if needed. On the move adjustable tyre pressure. 6m bed turntable trailer. built in coffee machine...

I just had a cup of tea, Earl Grey with one sugar and a little splash of milk. Or am I missing something?

Could you use a few of these and free-climb every tree?

RIP Odin the Logging Clydesdale.
Daniël Bos replied to TRADITIONAL LOGGERS's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
That's really sad, I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sure he'll rest well after a lifetime of logging. -
Perhaps Chris Gagen can help you? He's in Essex (but not too far south) and I've bought some of him before for fencing materials.

They are magnificent!

Perhaps watching less porn would ease the strain a little?

Seems to work OK, and I noticed it now knows my user name instead of calling me "anon7863"

Stihl 051/075 how to tell the difference
Daniël Bos replied to chainsaw surgeon's topic in General chat
Have a look through this thread for a discussion on your saw and how to tell the two apart: http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/milling-forum/66993-after-milling-saw-sale.html -
The tractor would have been able to stop, turn its engine off, restart it and drive on without any issues. The LR was right on the edge of it's abilities, any hickups and it would have been in deep trouble. See, I can argue that quite reasonably I think:biggrin: Even if the driver literally knows every manhole (which I reckon is highly unlikely) there are trees, and other obstacles the flow of the river might have put in it's path. There is no road-going landrover I've ever seen that has the capabilities of a tractor. Just the sheer mass of a tractor (a jcb will weigh more that 3x as much as the lr) keeps it from flowing away infinitely more so than the car. We don't know why they drove through, but unless it was an emergency I reckon it was a reckless, selfish and foolish act, looked like fun though:biggrin:

That's definitely the most annoying video I've seen all year:biggrin: I have ported an ms180. It's got: an american ms210 carb, fully adjustable and it seems that just the carb swap gave it more power alone. it has the exhaust drilled out and the louvres opened right up, it sounds right funny, like a very angry kitten. Then the inlet and outlet ports were widened as far as possible and I made them a little squarer (there's not much room to make them bigger so squarer made more flow) I also polished the ports to a near mirror finish as the casting was quite rough. The result of all that faffing about is mainly a noisier saw. It makes me giggle when I start it:001_smile: It has a tiny bit more power but there is so little to start with that 10 or 20% more is still very little power... I might have a vid somewhere.

Sorry to disappoint you, but that is not quite real.... It was an april fools day joke for 1976!

Let me google that for you

Were you asked by the other person with you in the car when it fell on you? Looks like a willow to me? but that picture is not much to go by really...

Don't think its asian, the markings on it's back seem different? I though the ALB had more of a speckled sort of look, this one is banded.

Some form of long horn beetle, but not a clue which one.

If you need advice on a generator for your house
Daniël Bos replied to gensetsteve's topic in General chat
My father in-law used to do stuff with generators (company called harath, sold it to chloride and retired I believe). In his house he's put a standby generator (naturally) but reckons the best bet for small ones (like for a house) is LPG. His genny is in his basement somewhere, gas-line leading to outside where the gas bottles are. The main reason being that other fuels need more care as petrol and diesel deteriorate rather quickly nowadays I believe, as well as attract moisture and crap, and the gas just sits there and remains ever ready. -
Yes, perfectly legal. It comes off when you go on the road, like this:

Mine has never flowered as its still little and is not likely to ever do so either as it'll be a pollard and I think they don't flower when pollarded. One thing I do know is that in a Chinese tradition one would be planted at the birth of a girl, to be chopped down and made into small items of craft-work like jewellery boxes etc when the girl would get married.
