Looks ace. Where abouts are you?

What you doing with it eggs?
-
Had one eggs, absolutely mint. Mine and 670,000 on the clock. I bought it and went on a 10k road trip about Europe and all that went wrong was a leak on diesel return hose ( snipped it out and moved hose clip). Europe is well stocked for spares for these buses. Mine was auto and I would have preferred manual. They have timing chains. King pins tend to wear out . The coach builds a quite low down and have large overhangs on the back which isn't amazing for tracks. Listen for air leaks once the air tanks full if it has air brakes.

Going large with a Panther Mill! Another custom double ended set up.

I think ideally Steve you want there max rpm to be very close. I wasnt happy running an 084 and an 076 together, felt like the 076 was being pushed faster than it wanted. I doubt 500 rpm difference enough to worry about for example.- 12 replies

-
Yep pretty much want one now. Just seized the tip of my little 150 bar......
-
Look forward to these arriving. How will they compare in price/quality to the stihl ones?
-
It's good they honour it without question. I have probably totally abused them. They usually stop opening easily after I have tried to cut fencing wire or over squeezed the pliers etc.

I have a Gerber which is now owned by fiskars. Lifetime warranty which they honour! On my 3rd replacement now.
-
No idea why, but they are amazing at what they do. So light and quick to setup. Not much pull on them but ok if used correctly. I have a cheap 4t Chinese one that lives the the truck. Had it for years hand can't break it. Not as good as a real lugall though.

I'd get a decent used saw every time over the plastic home owner type ones.

Not really looked Into tesla, but 5k buys you an awful lot of batteries for offgrid living. For me budget option would be used deep cycle batteries like these https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F222920831636 If I were about to setup a offgrid cabin

Aye monbiots at times seems highly irritating but he makes some really interesting points, especially in that book. Lots in there about land use etc.
-
Looks great. You look really pleased with it! Have you seen that vid if that fella making lampshades from pine (or some other softwood?)
-
Should have gone for it Matty. Got to let these things out!

Blocks popping out their splice? Minging

I'd be extraordinarily surprised if this was an issue

How advanced was the kretsch?
-
Dropped the 200 out the tree today! Did a lazy cut on a sycamore with no undercut, one handing, branch sprang like a loon twatted the saw out my hand, something battered my hand, tool attachment on harness broke. Looks ok just bent bar and chain. Happened surprisingly fast!
-
Kretshy sycamore take down today, not many targets just a few trees and old wall. Branches off by coffee and on the deck by lunch. Nice to not have to rig anything AND the client wanted to do the tidy up themselves!
