  1. That is serious PPE πŸ‘
  2. And that is why it sometimes takes so long to get up in the morning . πŸ™‚
  3. Do you have a leesonse for that minkey ? What are you blind or somsing ?
  4. Well isn't that what " says more about us " means ?
  5. Again . ....Cost .
  6. Respectfully ...OK πŸ™‚
  7. And all the above reflected in the price . πŸ‘
  8. Would be very good marketing . I think you do them an injustice . They can engineer if required . Its just people expect cheap coz its Chinese .
  9. Hard frost first thing . Cool and bright . Currently 7 degrees at 14:00 .
  10. I know what you mean re the pale color for Field Maple but for me the sticks are too strait for Field Maple . I'm still going with Elm . πŸ™‚
  11. I think they are the saw of choice for the " re badging " merchants . Most of the garden center type saws start off as a Zomax . You get what you pay for . As has been said many times before if you aske the Chinese to make a saw for Β£50 so you can sell it for Β£100 they will oblige . If you ask them to make a saw that could reasonably be sold for Β£500 I'm sure they could do that also .
  12. The cut face looks more like Elm to me and the bark has that greenish tinge like Elm . Usually Oak that diameter pale ring just under the bark and the the rest of the face is an even tan color . But just my stab at it from a photo πŸ™‚
  13. The oil in the early stuff made it smell a bit like a chip shop but they did something/changed something and you don't get that now , at least I don't notice it .
  14. I think Ulmus .
  15. I would say the blueish stain is ferrus Nails or similar . The dark brown is natural heartwood ? I'm no expert though .
  16. All he needs to do is get Boris to represent him . Job done .😁
  17. I see Andrew ( ex prince ) has elected to be tried by jury . I think he will get ripped to shreads by a profesional cross examination . He looked pretty shit in an interview he aranged with one of his mates ! Stand a better chance if it was trial by combate me thinks . πŸ˜€
  18. Not Starting when hot is a symptom of possible low compression . When it gets hot the clearances open up to point where it wont support combustion . Pull the muffler off and have a look at the piston .
  19. Don't hold your breath re the grant of probate . Took over a year for my old Dads . The estate accounts have only been finalized yesterday . So best part of 18 months to sort .
  20. I just googled it .....πŸ™‚
  21. The swans and for that matter the geese tolerate the heron it seems .
  22. Better still mini digger with a corkscrew splitter .
  23. Optional πŸ™‚
  24. Yes ! He must be Darlene πŸ˜ƒ
  25. Nice one John . What is the requirement nowadays re bar length/saw capacity for this course . I see you had a Husqvarna with an 18" ?
