Alternatively you could carve them leaving tool marks like in the bowl below

Oh but the price! I think they you are looking at $100,000 for them. Mind you they have real trucks not just computer renderings.
-
Makes one wonder if he has completely lost the plot but apparently they have taken between 150000 and 200000 deposits for it. Think I will be holding out for a more practical looking EV truck
-
$40000 with quite a lot of power on offer and they are taking deposits. Go on J you know you want one

How about one of these. Looks a tad wide for Devon lanes though Tesla Cybertruck: The Spaceship Has Landed | CleanTechnica CLEANTECHNICA.COM It's here, and it's ... VERY different. We just got some of the press updates from Tesla with details, specs, and actual photos, so...

Yes, my bench is of a similar style. Went for a Record for the main vice and a conventional tail vice with metal thread. This ones not mine but pretty much the same and much smarter
-
I like mine. Tried various guides over the years and this one is the best IMO. Having two points of support makes sure that the side plate angle is always spot on and then it's a bonus to do the rakers at the same time but I like to take them down more than the 2in1 lets you as the teeth get shorter
-
Same. Love the turbo coach screws but my word they have gone up in price. When they first sold them they were cheap as chips.
-
Yes I have powerful 3 speed Dewalt drill that will put in lag screws faster but no way I would want to use it like that when up a ladder putting a barn together. The impact wrench does the job without twisting my arm off
-
Another vote for a G-coupler. Got one after a recommend on here and would never go back Very happy with my Dewalt Impact wrench. Went for the smaller one as it's up to the nuts and bolts I do and light enough to use for heavy duty coach screws
-
I wouldn't get too hung up mpg. My Isuzu was supposedly about the best for mpg (37 I think) when I got it and it averaged 27 around here with logs loads and trailing. My 10 year old Hilux with 130k on clock manages 25mpg. Book numbers and real world numbers seem to be a world apart these days and you are never going to get great numbers when hauling loads around Devon hills
-
Also just say for second say it all turns out to be a huge hoax that vast amounts of scientists have colluded on. What is so awful about the main aim of not using fossil fuels? They are finite so its just plane common sense to ween ourselves off burning them. Think of all the amazing things that are made from oil that we will deprive ourselves of if we burn it all needlessly.
-
I see he made no attempt to disprove global warming just showed that in a few states in the USA have not experienced more extremes. Global warming is the big problem and this will lead to climate change which will vary dramatically from area to area with some parts of the world getting colder while the world average still goes up. I dont understand why some people cant separate these two very distinct things.
-
I have tried a few of the chains and would agree with the comments about inconsistency. One I had was very hard. First outing on the processor thought it was great but when it hit something hard it caused far more damage than I encounter with my usual Oregon chain and it was pig to sharpen. Also pretty rough when new presumably due to varied teeth hight. Got one for emergency destructive work but stick with Oregon LPX for day to day use on and off the processor.
-
We just bought a Browns to put on a pivot steer loader. UK built, quality construction, side tilt and not badly priced IMO. Cant give a long term report as we have only just got it but this the digger one Browns Agricultural WWW.BROWNSAGRICULTURAL.CO.UK
-
I am a convert to the Japanese style saws. Oddly my favourite is made by Irwin with a more western style handle but the cut is fast and clean and they last an age.
-
Because if you have never had a problem why change? Being in the SW we have some of the highest ethanol content in the country and I am still waiting for these much banded about problems. It must help that most of my kit is kept busy with a good turn over of fuel but even the kit that sits on the shelf most of the time starts without bother.
-
I would have thought there might be a fair range. If you had a fast saw with no torque I would set it up with the rakers quite high so it would be taking fast but shallow cuts. Conversely if I had the kind of power and torque the engine in the clip probably offers you could knock the rakers down to take a big bite. The limit would come when you start snapping chains.
-
Too much at present haha. Had a problem with the oil pump but it now fixed it over oils IMO. Would normally get through around 1 litres on a busy day but it varies as the pump is actuated by pulling the saw down so cutting large wood you dont get through much but lots of small stuff you get through way more. Never tried it on plain rapeseed but the it's main constituant of the Clark Bio
-
No one knows but it doesn't stop the press guessing. Apparently it will all hinge on the NAO (north atlantic oscillation)
-
Hard pushed to get it big enough for firewood here. Not thought of stakes binders and hurdle making. Devon style laying is different as its normally on high banks. Will look into it though
-
No major aims other to enable more wildlife and happy for a bit of shade for the sheep. If we grow a bit less grass under them I can live with that. Could look at fruit but the first site is very exposed and the apple in our garden often loses its blossom prematurely.
-
Excuse my ignorance but whats the product?
-
I am really unsure what to plant. I have in my head some tall trees with a dense understory for wildlife. What naturally grows well on our banks is beech, ash (well it did but almost all dying), oak. hazel, hornbeam and hawthorn. Only one sweet chestnut and that has recently died. We have fir doing OKish in a corner but it's had some wind damage over the years. Next door have a few larch but they have recently died. We have high rainfall but relatively well draining ground. It's pretty acid and exposed to easterly blasts.

Just a little update. Been running the Clark Forest bio chain oil for a year now with no problems. The OH quite likes the fact I come back smelling like a chippy ?
