  1. You answered your own question there.
  2. The further away the anchoring tree is to the rigging tree can increase the force applied to the rigging point. Something to be aware of.
  3. Yeah but where's the fun?
  4. Can you explain that one to me please?
  5. Looked a little too good to be true. Can you provide details? (Pm if you'd prefer)
  6. How long did you get?
  7. Can you provide links to this? Celox (and equivalent) is designed for situations where other means of stemming blood flow are ineffective. It's not the first this you grab at the sight of blood. In a worst case scenario I'd certainly rather have it in my tool kit than not.
  8. If I had to go back to climbing like that I would despair. Mind you if I had to go back to long ascents ddrt I'd despair also.
  9. And 6 pints in.
  10. Yeah, if someone shot me with that I'd laugh...
  11. "Coming again to save the mother fluffing day yeah..."
  12. Monkey Puzzle
  13. 70cc minimum for 25" bar. Trying to run 25" full comp chain on 60cc would be painful. Look out for a s/h 372xp on eBay. HarryTheCat does some decent refurbs. Failing that get a new 365xp and grind out the transfer ports.
  14. Failing that someone posted a link a while ago to a fan assisted incinerator that produced basically no smoke.
  15. Put £5k on it and hope someone else does it for the wood...
  16. Well you're stuffed for toppers then. Daft comment.
  17. Bugger. Thought I was special
  18. You get a sticker on yours?
  19. Bit pissed that I'm not the only lad in Rugby with a ported saw now...
  20. The top part of euc.
  21. What's it worth as firewood?
  22. If not there's Bartletts...
  23. Makes you wonder how climbers have survived this long on single bridge saddles. I get it for functionality, if it made you more efficient. Not for me though. Where do you stop though? Chainsaw protective jackets, gloves, neck guards. Wire core climb lines? All are solutions to problems which shouldn't exist as a competent operator.
  24. Same here, more light and less leaves.
  25. Fair enough Steve, you know I defer to your knowledge on anything 2 Stroke. As I understand it though, high quality synthetic 2 stroke oils already have that factor built in. I've read that RL for instance would be fine running on a much leaner mix. Otherwise someone accidentally mixing at 51:1 would instantly cook their engine.
