  1. I have an old Dynamac from Machine Mart, it's made by the same firm who makes Emak, Oleo-Mac and Efco saws. My Dynamac is a heavy thing for 41cc but it's been reliable over the years and only needed a carb kit.
  2. I picked a couple of canvas tarps up from Anchor Supplies. They were outside in a stillage and were £10 each. One of them turned out to be a Scorpion tent and a mate bought it off me for £25 to use on his Land Rover.
  3. Never mind all this let's have another look at the weather in Mexico (turn the volume down though, the Australian is a bit coarse) [ame] [/ame]
  4. If they privatise the NHS I want all my contributions back with interest, that's the only way I would be able to afford any treatment in future
  5. I've seen that on a few sites now, it's not even photoshopped well
  6. They are committing an offence if they have piped the water into your land and you could be entitled to compensation for any damage it causes or work that you have to carry out to accommodate the increase.
  7. 50 mph gusts here and it's spittin'. Get them kids in Jon.
  8. Try a Fiskars blade in it, there can't be that much difference.
  9. If they had a location in their signature we could see where they are
  10. Internet sellers must still be local for somebody. I bought from an internet seller world of power but only 30 miles from here and if I'd had problems not too far to take it back under warranty.
  11. Like Landies, the threads never die
  12. Nottingham lace
  13. You let him have his own money, what kind of concept is that
  14. Drying out a bit here now but some high winds forecast for later in the week. It's still mild though.
  15. Probably easier to buy a second hand replacement and keep yours for spares, depends how much you want to spend on it.
  16. That's pretty close to the bearing and looks like it's working it's way round. It will let go in a big way soon or if it is pulling air through the crack it will probably seize first. You should replace the whole crankcase as a matched pair but separate halves do come up sometimes. It's not a little job though. Link to harry's listing, it looks like something you might be able to use.
  17. Does he know how to use a saw ? A friend of mine was having trouble with his firewood saw, chain coming loose along with clutch cover and when I looked at it with him he was not locating the adjuster pin in the bar hole. I explained what it does and showed him how to do it and turn the bar over (Oh no the writing is upside down !) and why you do it and sent him on his way. He has had no problem since
  18. Wind before four shut that door Are we making old proverbs up now ?
  19. Wind is getting up here at the moment, some 40 mph gusts according to the BBC site, raining as well
  20. [ame] [/ame]
  21. Is that a calendar or a girl Jon ?
  22. I saw some CPL bags at the local Bargain Buys and they were not so much of a bargain as you say, looked to be about 7 or 8 softwood logs for £3.50
  23. Holly leaves burn like Billy Ho there seems to be resin in them or something. Elderberry is associated with mystic rites and witches turned themselves into Elder trees according to old superstitions.
  24. They should have repaired the saw and sent off the faulty part to the manufacturer not inconvenience you. Look at Citizens advice or Trading standards for some help with what to do next.
  25. I'd like to thank the ladies of the foxy hunters, they've made an old man feel even older
