We should start a boy band. I'll be the one that goes into rehab after coming out of the closet and my subsequent public breakdown.

It's Velcro you numpty, you don't need a saw to open it! I know what you're saying. I first thought you were on about wife beater type vests. I don't wear Velcro hi vis when using any machinery, after seeing one get pulled into the drive shaft on a set of long reach. As I said, Stein X25 are tough, comfy and cheap. No brainier really.
-
Gotcha. I won't wear hi vis vests on account of that. The Stein shirts are grand. For 15 quid they're great value. If you were bashing wife beaters we'd have had a problem mate
-
Why are vests dangerous?
-
I thought that once. Turns out it just needed a wash.

It's a £100 fine for 3 points. Just politely inform them that when they get to your age, they won't want to waste time on the motorway either...

Easy bud! I know he knows what he's on about! I only ever get so read so far though before my head hurts. It's easier for me to just accept that TCD knows his subject, and buy RL so I can feel good about my saws
-
I hope I never bump into him in the pub and end up talking about 2 stroke!

If the tonne bag is full, then it weighs a tonne! It's basic maths mate, keep up.

promo video altered (shorter, can watch on mobile devices and better music)
Joe Newton replied to Hats's topic in Video forum
Found it on YouTube. Just wouldn't play through Arbtalk. Nice vid. Good for the potential client to see a good tidy up. -
I googled it. Apparently a metric tonne is 1000kg

Les boys do cabaret...

Can't watch on my iPhone due to SME content. -
The time has finally come
Joe Newton replied to Steve Bullman's topic in SRT (Single Rope Technique)
Why is it hard to accept that some people simply aren't going to like SRT? I mean it makes sense to me for certain jobs, but if you can get a job done ddrt and are happy with it then fair enough! -
No worries, it's hardly a problem. I don't use much of it as it's only for my saws. The work ones run on stihl green oil. When I run out I'll get in contact.

What quantities do you sell it in Jon? I've a few bottles left, but they're something daft like 473ml!
-
You a "short gaff" kind of guy?
-
Seriously? Nobody's picking up on the "deep penetration comment"? I thought it was my night off. C'mon guys!
-
Alternatively drop a match down the plug hole to get ride of excess fuel...

I'm the same mate. This echo is (IMO) the one saw in their line up that really stands out. Apart from the beard stroking. My chin looks like a 14 year olds ball sack.
-
Hahaha took me a while, that one!
-
Gotta agree mate. When you first compared it to a full fat topper I wrote your opinion off as that of another Echo fanboy. I was properly skeptical. I was wrong. Apologies.

It's flooded

Won't fit in mine. Yours would probably take it.

£35?? Actually the strop ring is well engineered, but it doesn't work great for short clipping with a lanyard cinched to it. It swivels, making it tough to unclip. Bought one of them posh recoil lanyards.
