Get some pallets under it, you'll get rising damp

I was happier not knowing what it was going to be, I wanted it to be like Ed 209 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFv7BMMV9sY]RoboCop Clip "RoboCop Vs. ED-209" Official - YouTube[/ame]

It's not exactly a chainsaw though is it ? More like a petrol powered sabre saw.

Better idea, cats don't get many pigeons but plenty of little wild birds on the floor.

Fixed that for you

Weeeeeeeoooooowwwwwwww vroooommmmm pop pop pop.

I'd like to see some Easter Island statues, bigger the better. I've not had a go at carving but I looked at some patterns here.

Bill and Ben are looking for a little weed

Or is it Hornbeam ? Sorry, nobody has asked for a while now so I thought I'd just throw it in there How can you tightly pack different size round trunks ? I think it's a problem that's always going to exist. I'd like to buy my wood in lengths and process it myself but nobody wants to sell it that way. .

If it's wet just peel some bark off and watch it change colour if it's Alder. It only takes a few minutes for it to go orange.

Me too I bought a cheap one for a one off. It has an Oregon chain and 12" bar and it cuts 10" Birch with no problem. It might struggle with harder wood but it did the job I got it for.

That looks a seriously damaged spring Did it fall a long way ? Fix the old one and get your new one then you'll have a back up or save the old one for spares.

You'll not call him again. It looks like the hosepipe when my missus puts it away

Mine's a 135 but same procedure and it was a pain to start originally till I got the hang of it and they do seem to take a while to warm up. I press the bulb until it seems solid so sometimes more than 6 presses and a couple of pulls on full choke. If it's a new saw there will be plenty of compression so it will be jerky.

Do you want a leaf rake or something more like a tarmac rake ? Faithfull tarmac rake will last ages.

This is my Lambretta. It's not bell end purple though

It's well run in then

I can sympathise on the drilled digit. I was riveting some bits on an old Mini and put a 1/8" drill completely through my left little finger. I pulled it out still spinning and it brought the filling with it. I didn't faint but my wife said I was a funny colour and I could see spots before my eyes and had to sit down on the floor. My wife took me to hospital and a kind nurse (not really) looked at it then snipped the hanging stuff off with a pair of scissors. I almost p!&&ed my pants there are a lot of nerves in fingers. I was given the obligatory tetanus jab so I went in with a finger injury and came out with a limp. The doctor who looked at it said I was lucky as it went between the tendon and the bone, I thought lucky would have been if I hadn't done it at all. Keep it clean and well padded till it heals there's only a tiny white mark now where mine was. You could put "what's on your bench today, there's blood on mine".

Saws with no set on them can be sharpened by rubbing on a flat oil or water stone, they do get gradually thinner but it would take an age to wear them out completely

If it didn't have a handle the head would be pretty useless and if it didn't have a head it would be a stick I bought a cheap fibre glass handled maul and broke a chunk out of the cutting edge in a piece of wood so I straightened the edge off with the angle grinder and tapered the head and it is now 10 times better than it was and doesn't stick any more. I usually swing it once then knock it through with a hammer if it hasn't split what I was hitting. I have a polypropylene handled felling axe that I bought for £1 from a flea market and it has been well used to good effect and I don't get hung up on what the best handle material is, wood, plastic or fibreglass they all do the job.

There's an old Danarm on Preloved might be worth a punt at £40 if you are looking for one.

If you can heat the bolt up it should soften the Loctite and come undone.

They still have a Rowan tree in our back garden and I cut it up for firewood 6 years ago

I once cut a tree down for the Latterday Saints church round the corner. I got to keep the wood and they promised me I'd go to Heaven.

Turn the L screw in a bit then speed the tickover up with the tickover screw. If you can rebuild the saw you should learn to set it up. Get it warm then twiddle the screws and you can soon get the hang of it. It's not witchcraft, watch a couple of youtubes and follow what they do. You can get it running and let your man do the fine tuning and set the revs with the H screw.
