  1. Location & Wages would help tenfold
  2. Never had this done to me before,, so Can anyone in the know, advise me on this please.? I've asked the No Tickets, No Clue, Idiot, to take the pics of me OFF his Website,, Since the beginning of Summer this year (around early June).. And they're still on there. (I want nothing, todo with the guy,, & Definitely, Don't want him using my face.! (I only subbed for him for a few days too, the cheeky Sod.!.) Is there anything more that can be done to make him, take these pictures taken down please.? Any proper advise on the matter would be highly appreciated. T. I. A
  3. Google search it Rob. I was talking to a guy fairly recently online about surveying for Bat Potential, as I've done it for 5x Railway Sites. ("Hard to get in to Surveying though, as its even smaller field than Arb.".. As so their Batman said). .. Have you tried giving ArbTech a call.? They 'ONLY take on Surveyors with Certs already', apparently though.. So at a guess.. They should have a Phonebook Full of them.. Surely they can pass you a number if they can't help.. Surely.?
  4. Caww, RichyB's still on here.. Its been a fair few years since we done that slash n burn site now ay. How you keepin dude.? Who'd you message an all Rich.?

  7. I have 1.. I'd say, they're inbetween a 150-200t Cutting & Weight Wise.. (Nice optional for Chainsaw CARVERS 😉). Paid for itself over & over.. Still running 2-3yrs later. (Not constant everyday use obviously) But Plenty of PJs & take it everywhere.. as my main Climbing Saw for my PJs... back up Saw for Prof. Commercial & Domestics. ... Alpina A27T .. Now bought Out by and are called,, 'Stiga's (blah number blah) Pro'. (They're now Black & Yellow,, Exactly the same Saw). Personally,, I like them for what they are .. Eventually,, May even get a new one.. So I can get this one, Modded & Ported.. (Might do..)

  14. He's Still Here.!! Hello Mark,, Had to question your existence myself, after your spell from login on.. You went a bit quiet there after your last post about "Doubling up on transformers"... (Darkside in me was pondering if all went peak tong and one isn't chuckling about my wadders.. anymore.. haha haha haha) Glad your still with us though GobbyP.. And not a self made carbon statue from.. 'electri-culi-cution'.. Back on topic: Don't think it be a good idea bud, to be doubling up the unit yet.. the old saying of "Trying to Run before you can Walk" springs to mind immediately for me there.. adding extra risk. I understand the idea behind your thinking too, 'DDouble the juice x2 = Double L = L Fractal' (In theory).. PM me bud.. & I'll try explain easier ways to get them, before you go burning your place down. (I'm burnin sometime this week for a decor piece now I've redone my connections... ie: Good practice.. Change Every Connection after a Burn Session).
  15. Adding to that, another niggler I've come to a conclusion on.. "Why haven't we seen loooong Fractals before.?" Simply put.. The Rods just literally burn themselves out,, spoil the work.. & consequently.. Fall out (be quick on your toes,, Just about to unhook n veee-ry nearly had a close call with an electric chair)? ** This stuff will Kill you,, you mess this up people.!!! .. This is Not a Hobbie for the Faint Hearted .. Try at your Own Risk... I dont want Any blame for a Death or any Serious Injury nor Damage to anyones Property .. Myself, GobbyPunk and anyone else trying this are Stupid For Trying .. We Are Not, Trying to Glorify Fractal Burning & We Do Not,, Accept Any Fatality or Accident that may Probably Happen to any other Fool thinking about trying this .. AT YOUR OWN RISK People.!! **
  16. Hello Mark,, I forgot to update you on that too .. I done a 2m Spruce Plank bud as an experiment for your previous ask,, Sparkin my curiosity... Same way as usual set up.. Paste on your mix etc .. But dont use rods.. with our set up,, Clamp straight on to the board.. Warm the board until it 'Primes' (Sparks) .. Switch Off for a mo,, paste again,, Then turn it on & leave it turned on for longer.. This was why my Spade Connection from the Transformer, on the Live Wire must of got so Hot it literally burnt the solder off and blackend the Crimp Enamel. (Not the HP Lead itself,, thats still A-OK
  17. ** Warning Update ** (Also a note to Self..) If after a few burn sessions your Fractal Set Up keeps Tripping .. Check your Connection's haven't Melted, the Spade Connection at the nape of the Fitting.. (What the heck is it kicking out exactly to do that.? Jeeze.!! )
  18. 'Key Cut.?' as the USA call it. Good for direction felling with a Wedge
  19. As mentioned previously.. find a new 'Dealer' .. [emoji106] Missing Mufflr bolt wouldn't help matters though bud.. With Heat escape,, It could of caused a numerous amount of problems,, That said,, Chainsaw maintenance & up keep of the saw is/should be a priority of yours as the Private Owner/Occasional Operator otherwise.. its your Health at Risk if it goes 'Pete tong' due to using an unsafe saw. Check it over as a Standard Unit for Leakage from front to back of the saw,, & Post Update (with pics if poss).. The top hood & side covers will show scorch marks where your worst leaks will be.. Replace the Gaskets & Check psi again.. with Equal Tension on Your Bolts. (Opposite to opposite).. If you don't know what to do/how yourself,, Go to a Prof Saw Repair Shop.. #NotYourLocalDealerGuy.. Keep us updated & Good luck with your saw doooood[emoji106]
  20. Sounds to me, like it was originally a PSI Leakage, from the Need of a Ring &/ Piston Change.. (Did it start 'Gurgling/Spitting' between Refuels once run in hot.?.) Heat not escaping from the muffler but overheating the body instead.. would be my guess.. Was the Air Intake Boot checked for air escaping.? Newer Huskys tend to blow out a gap back there & need a new seal, Either replace whole boot section suggested) / DIY it yourself with a temp resistant sealant.. If can access the Cylinder Base Bolts (and they aren't spot-welded shut),, Check base for signs of any leaks too.. If sure thats ok,, check the cylinder with a PSI Gauge for any leaks. I wouldn't suggest porting it / drilling the crank case,, without checking the unit over as a standard saw 1st.. I've only been tinkering with saw guts, just over a year now, so who am I to say whats right/wrong,, just suggestions.. [emoji106]
