  1. That's the thing . They will always be the same lenght but too short IMHO .
  2. The plastic cone pissadears after a short time . Not worth bothering with . Its a 4 way head but with only 2 lines in the lower slots . using a 4 way head keeps the nut under flush so you don't dig in .
  3. Someone who does the same as me ! Also soak the line in a bucket of water . nylon is hygroscopic and absorbs water making it less brittle .
  4. Opinion will be divided on this one ! I like the Oregon Jet Fit heads with 3.00mm or 4.00mm square line made by Diamond extrusion . Some people prefer thinner line with a bump feed head .
  5. Try M J O forestry . West Dean nr Chichester . Mark Odin .
  6. City trees it will be the local council . Id tags can mean species , TPO trees to retain , trees to fell ( not often the last one ) Forestry can be different . Its " old school " stuff .
  7. I dunno but could be a " cat " restricting the initial draw . Like having a Jackdaw nest in the flu ๐Ÿ˜€
  8. They look dry to me .
  9. No , never heard of a deer voting . ๐Ÿ™‚
  10. My Chocolate one used to wag her rudder when she was asleep .
  11. Its a Spaniel thing ๐Ÿ™‚
  12. There are times Jonathan when I remember all the past 8 spaniels I have had . Like you say , your brain puts it all on a shelf way in the back .
  13. You need to pop some other species eggs in there to keep up with the current trend ! ๐Ÿ™‚
  14. Forward thinking . Anti deer perhaps ?
  15. If they are going to be used for what you describe ( checking on your boys ) then yea if its what you do . If they are going to be used for theft recovery , the bit where you say " they can be easily removed " makes them next to useless I would think .

    Jokes???

    Just realized , its Star Wars day to day .
  17. Its become a " Bialder " ๐Ÿ™‚
  18. There are cones and there are cones . The helix ( buttress thread if you like ) has to be sharp , and hard where it first contacts the bark side of the round . After that it can be tough but not so hard . . If it bites and then stalls the engine then you don't have enough torque . On the other hand , if you do have loads of torque it will churn through , knots and all .Torque is the key as opposed to revs . Similar in a way to a hydraulic splitter with not enough tonnage .
  19. Can't help much but I would prefer the Hornbeam .
  20. Mods , mods FFS .......please allow this ? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  21. I just can't bring myself to do it . 4 degrees this morning but in 2 hours it was 15 !
  22. Grasshopper , Its like a finger pointing away to the moon . Do not concentrate on the finger or you will miss the heavenly glory ......๐Ÿ™‚
  23. Those aphids , they got no manners ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  24. So , is that you in the vid " WirralBoy " ? ๐Ÿ˜
