    Uniforms

    The tight fitting neck would do me in .
  2. I think there must be a wall of another building just out of shot to the left as you view the clip . The springy brashy ends have sprung it back toward him as it parts ? possibly ...
  3. Mine is the older D22 and tows a Jenson A530 and or a log splitter and a back full of logs . Its an 05 and still on the original clutch . Touch wood !
  4. Well all my Fender guitar necks are made from Canadian hard rock maple , quarter sawn to make them very stable . To be very honest I dont know if it would be good for impact stuff but then again I don't have areason why it would not . Try a bit ( see how easily I said Try a bit ! )
  5. Hickory is supposed to be good but you don't have any .....So I would go with the hard rock maple ( rightly or wrongly )
  6. Might just be the pedal and not the clutch itself ? I had a sorta light graunching sound when I depressed the pedal for a while then I vacuumed out the truck ( well over due ) and its gone now ! Possible could be the thrust bearing on yours I suppose ....

    Dream houses

    Yea . We have done some tree work and hedging on some of the very rich yacht y type people in Bosham in West Sussex . Some really nice drums there . Also one or two very modern German built eco houses that cost 4p month to heat and beam your morning paper strait to your bedroom ... Very cleaver things but I don't like them .
  8. How bad was the L200 ? Right off ?
  9. Suddenly there is an outbreak of Alec's ......Hi mate and welcome .
  10. You provocative swine
  11. Skyhuck has had this problem I think . .....
  12. I have heard that Highway are pretty good but not used one myself . No chance of salvaging the OEM pot and fitting a Metior piston ? Look on spuds " whats on your bench " thread for details of how to clean up the pot . As to a new pot and piston only lasting a week ...could be down to crappy manufacturing or could be down to you didn't fix what made it go in the first place , like an air leak or whatever ...
  13. My 15 year old son is Game of Thrones bonkers and he gave it a big thumbs up !
  14. 560 , 365 , 372 . All good for that .
  15. I think you need 45cc or more . The ability to fit a mulching blade for the bramble etc and an Oregon Jet fit head for the nylon strimming line . They will take up to 4mm square line . I use a Husqvarna 545 RX for the above . Look it up .
  16. As are you Paul .......
  17. Ruben you are like a Jack Russel with this brush cutter trying thing ! I been on the mower , off the mower , on the brush cutter all over Sussex today bud . Enough is enough !!!!!!
  18. Yea I remember the days when you had a couple of sleeping bags on each leg . You are right strides have come along way . Type A with the zips open at the back of the leg . Pfanner gladiator ventilation for me .
  19. Chains are definitely worth sharpening if you want your saw to cut . Once you get the hang of it it will take no longer than fitting a new one !
  20. Very honest and willing post Tom . Hope you find some work bud . Regards the old one ...
  21. A pisspot little saw will do the job if its good and sharp . A 50 or 60cc mid range saw will be crap if its got a dull chain . Soooo get the best you can afford and keep it sharp ....
  22. We have a 545 RX and the larger 555RX Seem very powerful to me . Got no complaints . Not tried the Stihl though .....
  23. You makes I fair chuckle you doos !
  24. If MOT is not an issue then yea ! Go fr it . Fitted a bigger bore stainless one to mine , Blanked off EGR and cleared out particulate filter . Goes better but also if you drive economically it sips less juice ...
  25. Got some ./ No complaints . All good here .....
