Could climbing trees help boost your brain power?
peatff replied to Steve Bullman's topic in General chat
How do you know ? You could have been really really fick if you hadn't climbed But could that be the reason they were intelligent ? -
Offer him the money for the equipment and make your own name and website. Has he any documented enquiries evidence, out of 2 or 3 a day you might still not get any follow up and if he has not replied to any of them they will be wary if any correspondence turns up out of the blue, I would anyway. Is he as lax with the other two businesses ?

Why would it need Lead replacement ? Four strokes need it to stop valve recession but two strokes don't have that problem. Lightning was 106cc wasn't it and the super 137cc ?

Could this woodland wasp sting death prevented?
peatff replied to tree-fancier123's topic in General chat
It was recorded as accidental death but the wasps meant to do it so it should be murder. I hate the things and have a phobia about them and avoid instances by keeping well away or killing them on sight. I know they are just doing what is natural for them but it doesn't help. I have been stung quite a few times and don't suffer any extreme reaction and feel sorry for the family who have to deal with this tragic loss when he should have been enjoying his holiday. -
I can't understand that either, so much easier to use than Bumtree or Preloathed

It does look like a surface grinding machine wheel rather than an edge but the rpm of 1650 is high. That there is Heath Robinson at his peak

We get shield bugs on the back garden and they are bright green almost fluorescent sometimes. They don't half have sticky feet

With braces Sorry, I'll get me coat.

Rizla king size red I thought straight away.
-
White aluminium oxide around that size about £150 to £170. I can't see anything on google in the exact size but not too far out.

Nowt wrong with Berlingo, car or van.

It's a splitting maul, get someone with an angle grinder to straighten the edge up and put a bit of an edge on it and away you go. I took a chunk out of my cheap maul and had to take 1/2" off the cutting edge. After I sharpened it I found it worked far better than it ever had before.

[quote=TurtleWoods72;1347427Like trying to spread marmite over a cheese grater rather than dousing it in washing up liquid. Yes that's how my mind works Remind me not to have breakfast at your house then

You have to make sure the chain doesn't lift when you clamp it as well.
-
It's a 36cc saw so it's not a 435 equivalent. The clutch spring looks a bit slack. Get the clutch off and check the oil pump drive behind it. Until you eliminate one problem for definite it's all guesswork.

I took my friend's lad to pick up a MS181 and the shop (Belmont, Sth Normanton) went through the start procedure and showed him how to tension the chain and where to put fuel and bar oil. Unfortunately no one showed his dad who filed the fuel tank with bar oil first time he used it.

Amazon has loads of them all different sizes. Do you want the whole assembly or just the wheel ?
-
Was that before or after you sharpened it ? I did one on my friend's electric saw and the angles and tooth lengths were all over the place and it practically cut round corners before it was done.

That's why they have lakes

Years ago when we were at our previous house there was a nest every year in what we called the dustbin hole on the rafters. One year I went out to find the nest had fallen and two young uns with the parents flying in and out panicking. I nailed a margarine tub up and put the remains of nest and baby birds in and they came and carried on feeding then fligged as normal.

If you are only using it occasionally I wouldn't worry about the discs yet they last ages. A shop near us sells a similar grinder which uses the same size discs and they usually have spares in stock. Amazon sells them if you are looking for online supplies.

Just gone in for a look at this, didn't know it existed
