  1. There's only one way to find out
  2. I think the choice of bar oil would be more of a sore point.
  3. I read my warranty and there's no mention of it having to use Husqvarna oil. I don't see how they could enforce that one anyway.
  4. Stick some EP90 in with it, it will not fling far with that but it will probably stink:thumbup:
  5. There's some building work planned for a site about 1/2 mile from where we live and the site was previously a council yard. All the old buildings are being taken down and the hard standing and concrete dug up and it's all being ground down into hard core on site. We have double glazing and lots of intervening buildings and we can hear it constantly at the back of the house so I don't like to think what the poor beggars next door to it are hearing all day. They will be done in a couple of weeks though so not a permanent fixture like you are discussing but they will need some serious sound deadening round the site.
  6. Till it's eaten the pork pie and rat poison
  7. It reminds me of something.
  8. My old Dynamac was always a bit reluctant when it had been stood a few months but it always seemed to start better after a vigorous shake, unless it was just me that felt more vigorous.

    A square of ex lax behind every door would be cruel, dear Santa for Christmas I would like lots of presents in soft wrapping paper please
  10. Aren't punts extinct It's all euros now.
  11. It looks more likely that he found it in a skip than stole it I think a serious user would have been glad to see the back of it. If that was stolen I'm sure the original owner would recognise it easily enough, has the seller blocked you yet ?
  12. Never noticed the plates missing on eBay saws, do you have any links to them ? The thread is a bit pointless without. A lot of the saws may be Chinese copies.
  13. The drum and bass jungle v gospel, I had to stop watching I had tears in my eyes. How can you question the existence of a supreme being when He creates talent like this. [ame] [/ame]
  14. Yes but get some helium as well for the really high revs
  15. Just fitted a new choke lever to the Stihl 036. How does all that oily muck get inside the handle it was packed in solid nearly enough to fill a mug in there. It still won't fast idle though.
  16. Persistent them willows, it'll be back
  17. Chap on the allotments used to make a trap from a cooking oil drum, one of the 25 litre metal ones. He used to cut a X in the base and push the points in and when the rats got in they pushed the points aside but they got them in the face trying to get out. Next morning he used to pour petrol in and light it, none of that humane crap for him. We used to have a Fox Terrier who could kill anything with one snap, we called her crocodog she was red hot. She once caught a rabbit while she was on the flexy lead and I had not even seen it.

  19. Just spotted this, recording it on 4+1 as I missed the start.

    They've made it a different colour ? That's really out there man.
  21. Is it this one ? It looks like a challenge for someone. Silly money already though.
  22. I've never known there be "just one" with rats they always invade as a family and start breeding if there is a food supply. Next door were "feeding the birds" last year and rats came along as bold as brass in broad daylight. There are two walls between us with a small gap and they were living in the gap so I got some limestone chippings and cement and filled the gap. Next door stopped feeding and they soon disappeared. Usually if you have mice it's a sign you don't have rats as they don't co-exist well, sack the cats and get some that will work for a living.
  23. Is waterproofness a real word ? You could do an offer if you buy the left leg you get the right one free just for Steve
  24. Sir, sir, I spelt it right in post #4 Can I hand out the pencils ?
