    Ok . I worked on a fern leaved beech once . Some of the lower branches had been cut and when it sprouted it reverted to the original standard leaf . Was odd to look at .
  2. Stubby
    Is it a cultivar AJ ?
  3. Stubby
    Don't sugar coat it Joe , tell it like it is FFS 🙂

    Bit like the Husqvarna 365Xtorque and 372Xtorque . Same saw . Just got some restrictor fins in the transfer covers . Take the covers off , grind of the fins and " shazam " a 372Xtorque .

    You need Spud @spudulike
  6. Stubby
    Fcuk . Big up to you for telling all . That aside I do sincerely hope you make the best recovery you possibly can matey . Don't forget you missus will be entitled to some sort of payment for being your carer , I think .

    No it doesn't matter but if they are all a similar length is that not a bit of a neater trick ? Like chuck two logs on the stove or chuck one log and then three smaller bits , Oh I don't care do what ever 😁

    Or just cut them in half without measuring anything .
  9. Stubby
    I would not " shorten them ", you just end up with lots of little stubby bits . Just cut them in half on a band saw or table saw . Same number of cuts and no need to measure anything .

    The next one up in the range is the 8kw I think . Looks the same just bigger . Check it out . Might fit your logs .

    Bit like sky subscription .

    Spoil sport !🙂

    Oh no , not cod wood 😄
  14. Stubby
    Do you mean cord wood ?

    The processor is set to 11and1/4inches purely to let me get 2x rows with an air gap in my log stores . They fit ok in the stove .

    Burley Hollywell 5kw nominal but punts out a bit more on full chat . Very simple to use

    " Chopping " down a tree with a saw . Be much easier if you started it up and cut it down . 🙂

    Time served tool maker C+G engineering cert back in the day so I understand the mechanics of it . I know you like to be a bit pedantic about the cause but " stretch " is a convenient term for most ordinary Joes to convey whats happened . I hate it when people say some thing is " hydroscopic " when in fact its hygroscopic ( as in nylon absorbing moisture . 🙂
  19. Stubby
    I understand what you say Pleasant and I agree with you . I never used the word stretch , or even the word wear . I just say its got longer 🙂
  20. Stubby
    I'm not mistaking anything . Just agreeing with Mick that the chain is now longer . Its definitely not shorter . 🙂
  21. Stubby
    He would describe it as he has above but as you rightly say Mick . The fecker is longer no two ways about it !
  22. Stubby
    I think any " waterproof / breathable " jacket is always a compromise . They lean towards one or the other . For keeping rain out you need oil skins for keeping cool its a string vest . .
  23. Stubby
    Yep . A belt linsher is what I use .
  24. Stubby
    You have to type the @ up against the user name with no space @Macpherson
  25. Stubby
    Not so sure about this . I am a big fan of alkylate fuels but some 4 stroke engines still have rubber components in the fuel system so the same reasoning could apply .
