  1. They're conifers Steve. Top them and they'll be a lovely hedge this time next year. Or you could thin them.
  2. Swamp cypress have roots like have been described
  3. You can't go wrong with either mate. If it's going to be your biggest saw get the 461. It pulls a 25" bar very well. The 20" is a ripper
  4. They all plug into the same generator, fuckwit.
  5. Off you pop then! To the shed! I'll trial it for you. Millions to be made on this.
  6. I wouldn't bother running them dry. The ethanol in fuel degrades the rubber parts, but also keeps them supple. It's when the rubber dries out that it cracks. I'd store them as they are, and just empty the tank and refill with fresh fuel before using them again.
  7. No, I really don't.
  8. I bloody hope so
  9. I use both for Arb work. Got a 460 on 25" at work, and it's a cracking saw. I also use my saws at work. A 441 on 20" and 660 on 30" I prefer mine 😀 The 441 on 20" is so smooth and quick. Doesn't rip like the 460 but it's just a joy to use. Guess it depends on what size bar you want. 20" = 441, 25"=461
  10. I'll raise you a monkey puzzle with climbing rose...
  11. I must give them back to your mother...
  12. You haven't walked in my shoes Ian. It's not easy. Unless you're also a size 7
  13. In hindsight I thing your fiancé should feel lucky she's marrying "the best stump grinder in the uk"... 😄
  14. i might still have the main part of this knocking about. Minus the Pinto, prussic and retrieval clip. Yours for the postage if you want (and I can find it).
  15. Shut up Tommy. I think you need some independent advice.
  16. I think you're bulling him Ian
  17. It doesn't catch fire
  18. Only problem was that a block of butter and 3/4 jar of honey went into each batch...
  19. I used to make muesli flapjack with butter and honey, packed with dried cranberries and cherries, cinnamon ginger and dark chocolate. Problem was it was intended as a breakfast power bar, but it was so damn good that I'd end up eating 3 big slabs through the day and nothing else!
  20. Tell me, has the fact that you "meant no harm" helped pacify your fiancée? Your diet is hilariously irrelevant. Still, this is getting tedious now. Enjoy the bed you've made.
  21. The problem with sociopaths like the OP is that whilst they might phrase it like they want opinions, all they really care about is people agreeing with them to validate their egos. It's like banging your head on a brick wall. When, inevitably his fiancée leaves him he'll still maintain that he was right and anyone who doesn't dedicate their lives to their mundane job is a work shy loser.
  22. Cracking service Al. Planner surprise me. As a top line manufacturer selling top line products at definite top line prices it's reasonable to expect they would stand by their product. Good job the two main competitors are a damn sight cheaper, and I know that Clark's after care is second to none.
  23. Depends on who's house she woke up in.
  24. Does you're fiancée not get worried when you'd rather be greasing nipples in the workshop? You know my stance. I reckon you're mental, but in the not so distant future, it's going to be just you and your stump grinding business. That's all. Perhaps you'll be happy with that.
  25. Christ. It's the first time I've ever related to you. I feel dirty.
