I like them because they make good firewood.

Quick to grow, quick to split, quick to season, and quick, but not too quick to burn.

 

 

This all day long .

A food mixer ?

I thought it looked like the old Kwacker engine .

Could be tiered magnets on the flywheel . Put a picture up and someone might know ...

Bought this for my 562 but I don't like it very much would anyone here be interested in buying it

Not me . Got one on my 395 but pointless on a small saw like that . Must get in the way when snedding  as you probably have found out 🙂

Must have been a very old Charnwood,   are you getting ash build up on the left hand side of the glass or have they now redesigned them ?.

I have an early version of the Burley 5KW and I don't get an ash build up on the left hand side of the glass . Probably had it 10 years ? Some times get a " bloom " in the centre but it rubs off quite easily . 

Allez up troops !

Not remarkable trees as such but I was impressed to see such large grafted trees and how obvious the graft union is.

 

Couple of questions. What trees are they? I suspected lime, but not very confident. Secondly, why are the grafts straight across the stem, rather than along a diagonal line across like fruit tree grafts often are?

 

Spotted them in the middle of Coventry. A surprising end to a surprising visit. I wasn't expecting it to be so nice!

 

 

Both halves look lime to me . Could it be something like small leaved lime grafted onto a different lime rootstock ?

Well the pistol is only going to happen in northern Ireland or if you're a vet wanting a single shot under section 5 if memory serves.

 

Plus it's reasonable force, whilst a grey area it didn't go to well for the farmer about twenty years ago.

The knacker man round here has a .45 revolver I think it is .

Really?

 

He barely threw a punch the second half of the fight.  Joseph boxed clever.  Worked him out and knew he would fade as the fight went on.

 

Perfect game plan from Andy Lee.  
 

Well done Joseph Parker.

Well to be honest I only saw the highlights and they were Parker being dropped twice .  You are probably right .

I think the big China man was robbed .

Francis Ngannou Demolished in round 2 !  Well done AJ . I honestly thought it would be harder than that . Makes the Fury look past it .

Morning Les , morning all .

Morning both thanks for the input 

I think the Parker Zhang one will be interesting also .

I'm not so sure . The last two guys AJ fought weren't of the stamp of FN . He dropped Fury and in my book anyway he won that fight . It will be interesting . I will U tube it in the morning also .

I have heard the sap can attack the aluminum of the saw casings . 

Oi oi then

Good morrow kind sirs .

Morning all . 7c and rain . 😟
