Never seen one but you could make one up with two thread chasers, also at Tracy

I used to buy bits from them 20 years back. Yes the taper might be the best but for the fact it may follow the cross threaded line first. Have you asked @aspenarb if any of his thread repairers are that size?

Was the offer without prejudice? You can always make a counter offer

I agree with @benedmonds and @Khriss as long as you have kept pictures and evidence as you have documented above.

I'm confused, are the first two pictures the only samples you have to go on and the final picture an archive picture of what you think it may be? I have not seen a hop hornbeam opened up and it is not a common tree but those first pictures look like a dead piece of sweet chestnut with the stringy bark bast and narrow sapwood. Especially with that light yellow tinge on the outer rings

Looks like there may be a suitable anchor in the wall behind

Brilliant, I've not seen one of those before

engine must run backwards on top one

I've been doing social media for 26 years then ?

Not necessarily, on a tractor I've know the sock filter in the tank to gradually block with a watery gel, gradually the suck from the pump would collapse the sock and the engine would die, leave it 10 minutes and it would run again. It's the warning for either low engine oil pressure or low engine oil level, we'll have to wait and see if @Jase hutch picks up on this.

that must mean OIL and could be low pressure as the oil gets hot or just high temprature. The other symptom sounds a bit like blocked fuel filter.

Greenfinch was always a very rare sight and strangely years we saw siskin we never saw goldfinch or vice versa. We did have a solitary goldfinch singing from our tv aerial this summer but he never did come down to fed that we saw.

something just brushed past my head making a strange sssssound

When I last looked several years ago it was part of the oil distributor's code of practice. Not only forked but it has been known for a hot length of scaffold tube to be pushed through to fill a few cans and let the rest run away.

I'm surprised at you; gravity fed is deprecated because of the risk of a pipe failing or tap leaking. This is why bunded and pumped makes sense.

Why not they have them at the circus don't they, and aren't trapeze artists working? ?

I used to see them in spruce plantation when I did and it was the high pitched chirping that would draw my attention before I saw one. I don't think I have seen a firecrest. It's shocking to me that despite having different sorts of feeds and feeders in my garden we have very few birds of any species visiting whereas 40 years ago the hedge was alive with house sparrows and we would see thrushes and blackbirds on the grass, robins would feed out of my wife's hand and bluetits nest in old bits of flue pipe.

Perzactly it's probably the same set of people that also partake of the shoot. The gamekeeper's sole purpose in life is to cater for his employers foibles. When I worked for a large land management company all the gamekeepers were employed by the forestry department, as those expenses were tax deductible.

@MattyF I'm with you on that. I live in an urban area and foxes are one of the few indigenous land animals I see and as I no longer keep chickens nor geese and neither does anyone close by they can have a free run. I have not been involved in fox hunting nor did I like the mess they made when they ran through but to make hunting with dogs illegal I was against. As my non hunting anti bloodsports, clog dancing, barrister, employer used to say it's part of the "Pageant of the Countryside" so I would carry on working as the hunt floundered around and brer renard would slink by feet away from me going the other way. What seems far more wanton in my eyes is to breed a non indigenous bird, feed it with grain fit for the mill, drive it out of its home into the open and make it fly, when it would prefer to run, into a barrage of lead, then pick up all the bodies and bury them.

Then why does his employer allow them to hunt on the land?

The hind leg bit can always be agued

I'm still old skool too but I have been using a 550 mk2 and have a sneaking feeling I would prefer to use that and get a new one every year.

Sorry not meaning to be authoritarian on this, we're all learning

IMO if you don't shut down until only char is left it would be clean and only send CO up the chimney till the fire goes out from air starvation. The thing is people would stoke it up with fresh wood and then shut it down, b to keep it in all night, the wood would then smoulder on emitting PICs by having a fixed minimum air supply the idea was that there would always be enough air to keep a flame. On mine I had the impression this fixed miniumu air came in the small jets at the back but studying it now I'm unsure. It's a Morso 11 and the air leaver has a central position for minimum, pushed to the left is for air under but I never use that and suspect the pssage has blocked with ash, to the right controls the over air for wood burning, I assumed this only controlled the air wash, the inlet for which is many many times the area of the small air jets at the back. It is the same size and shape as the flue opening and air is heated by the flue as the two streams are only separated by a 3mm steel plate. This is why I think it i important to get the stove up to operating temperature quickly and keep it there so the air wash is mixing hot air into the flaming region and not quenching the flame.
