  1. 2 and 3 I think are Northern Red Oak . 1 is not right ( as you say ) for Scarlett . Ponderosa looks good and Robinia / false acacia / black locust etc etc looks good as well . PS I am no expert !
  2. They are both in same key so fcuk it why not ...love it Brilliant ! 😁 👍

    Jokes???

    I am on the cusp of Aquarius and Capricorn I think . 1 + 8 gives me 9 😁👍 ( and that's only half hard and playful ) .

    661 or 881

    Under stood . However if looking for the next size down the Husqvarna 592XP looks to be the billie bollox !

    Fcuk me dead ! Of course you can ! 👍
  7. Is that terrier a Parsons ? Or am I pissed !
  8. Walnut has only just come into leaf here . Ducks all late . Garden birds all feeding first clutch . Many would be on second now .
  9. The haircut stressed it , it gave up .

    661 or 881

    As I understand it the 881 is lighter and more ergonomic than the old 880 RE off a harness . Something to consider .
  11. They all have their problems at some point in the manufacturing run . Early D22 Navaras had a bad batch of con rod bolts made by Cadburys . Later D22 were fine . Early D40 navaras had chassis snapping problems Later ones are good . I have had both models and had no issues at all . Currently running a 65 plate 190hp D40 tekna no probs . Izuzu have DPF regen probs with fuel getting into the engine oil and engines blowing up . Might be sorted now , I dunno . Some new Rangers have add blue issues . Hilux have had turbo and injector problems yad yada yada yada .
  12. Any strimmer damage at the base ?
  13. As has been said . Get the bloke to demo it with a load on board . Torque = force X radius . In that equation the force needed would be much more that if the ram were further toward the cab and the point of its attachment nearer the edge of the box .
  14. I know woulda , shoulda , coulda is all well and good but I would not lift it again to look at the roots , its been stressed enough . Any reason you could not have put it in the raised bed in the first place ?
  15. Ok . Just go indoors , make a cuppa and figure the best way to make a target for your knife throwing .
  16. Once again , stop throwing knives into your tree .

    Walnut

    Yeah it could be. Depends how the shake develops as it dries. Understood . Just thinking about the look not about the shake . Its as good as my Browning Citori grade 2 .

    Walnut

    Maybe not a grade 5 but could be a grade 1 or 2 .
  19. I have friend who is naturally big , not fat but built like a second row . He swings a big saw about like cheerleaders baton and takes big armfuls of brash out of a hedge , bit like a grapple . He is definitely an asset .
  20. Pick up the saw ( as above ) and hold it in what you think is a level position to cut a stump and the get someone to put a bubble on the bar . You will be surprised how far out you are .
