  1. Just finished fitting a new exhaust to my daughter's Corsa. We got wet
  2. That will spread them about nicely
  3. It crops up in these areas as pleasing to the eye not efficient, it also crops up in supermodels and animals. Physics follows different rules. If something is aesthetically pleasing doesn't mean it will work. Da Vinci drew some nice machines but they would not fly. I thought it was "it it looks right then it probably is right"
  4. The golden ratio is only something about what works in nature or is pleasing to the eye not what is efficient in mechanics.
  5. I've never used a cut off saw and thought "this ought to be making more noise and dust, I'll see what I can do" The 12" discs are only rated to about 6000rpm as well so not really a fruitful exercise making the saw outpace them.
  6. It's usually the socks where I have trouble
  7. You can melt Lego in acetone to make repair paste but it is for ABS plastic so you need to know what the saw is made of. [ame] [/ame]
  8. Or even new for old Will it be covered on your vehicle policy, your household policy or do you have equipment cover ?
  9. For those without 6 foot monitors.
  10. Cut them down and thin them out and sell them as Christmas trees Have you looked inside the hedge to see how many trunks those conifers have ? I had just one at the bottom of our garden and it had about 8 and was a swine to get at. I dug the root out a couple of years after the stump had died.
  11. Push it out with a screwdriver then plastic weld it and JBweld a plate on top for in future reinforcement. Make something that bolts into the screws holding the dogs on for a bit more cover.
  12. If you are Antipodean get some therapy, the Podean people have been oppressed for long enough and it's time they were recognised as having rights same as the rest of us.
  13. It's only a percentage of magnesium in aluminium typically 0.3 to 3% and will weld with 5356 tig rod but they are prone to cracking.

    What's this, the biggarlogs reality show ?
  15. My friend is an architect and he uses one to get into lofts. They do have their uses..
  16. If you get a 171 for firewood you will be doing a lot of chain sharpening.
  17. My 3 section ladder telescopes out to 27'

    T540 what bar?

    Where does the grit and crud come from? I only cut wood with my saws. The grease pushes the grit and crud out. I shoot some in when I sharpen the chain and turn the bar.
  19. Put some fuel down the plug hole and if the timing is out you might get some interesting backfires
  20. There's a IIA for sale on gumtree looks like it needs some TLC as well but it's all there and he says he has spares for them.
  21. They will not stand for aggression man. [ame] [/ame]
  22. I should imagine they have paid for the equipment and software to do the job or they know a friendly dealer. It needs to connect to the Husqvarna network to download updates I would think so any unauthorised copies would soon be detected.
  23. Some things are better left not said
  24. Sorry I misunderstood the question.
  25. I daren't offer to wash mine, they are sludged up to the knees. I reckon pressure washing is the best option.
