It's Eddie Izzard's hat, good reply though

I buy a Sun every Saturday for the television magazine and crosswords plus we need something to light the fire with.

A couple of blokes I worked with got in with a local pub landlord whose pub backed onto the Derwent and they asked if they could clear some of the bank for fishing. He agreed and they set to and were doing alright till one of the trees fell in the river and they couldn't get it up onto the bank so they cut the rope and let it go. A bit later they got a visit from Severn Trent who told them to cease and desist as the tree had caused problems with the canoe club further downstream.

I like the way he hung on to the very end

I've seen plasma cutters on ebay as cheap as £140 delivered but they seem to be creeping up to the £200 mark now.

I'll buy (take the) 435 (off your hands) if it's doing nothing now. How much you want for it ?

At the woodyard when I was a teenager we always made them and used them as splitting wedges as well once the crack was started with a metal wedge.

I've had that on a few different sites including Arbtalk. I don't click on anything on the page just go straight to the reset button and restart the computer. A friend of mine clicked on it and got ransomware (they put a password on everything he had saved) on his machine and they wanted something like £500 in bitcoin to release his files. He had all his stuff that mattered on his laptop as well so I just formatted it for him. P.S. it's not your antivirus it's a redirect to a website that fakes your antivirus to get you to panic and can redirect if you click anywhere on the page.

Burial would be a nice touch. I can't get over the nose sprocket seized twice and still you kept torturing the poor thing

I can't help thinking it would have been quicker with a drill Toys are fun though.

Thread about it here I don't do any milling but read about it a bit and you can clamp further out to the end of a solid bar so that may be an advantage.

Doesn't make it good practise though.

I was using a borrowed Partner saw that was given to a friend of mine. It only gets used a couple of times a year but it starts with a bit of coaxing and runs till the job's done then gets put back in the shed. It weighs a lot and drinks fuel but for what it gets used it's not worth replacing.

On Hampstead Heath at the time wasn't he ? It's not going to get any better is it Mick ?

Saws aren't supposed to be used at lower revs, flat out is the way to go especially when "tickling a hinge" type maneuvers are being done. Any chain will grab if it's not up to speed.

Merry Christmas to everyone. -
Is Samuel H Jackson related to Samuel L Jackson?

Copper grease is anti seize not lubrication, proper grease does the job better.

I've looked all over and I can't find what kind of steel they use. I also can't find what kind of steel Oregon, Ozaki or Stihl use.I could be cutting this wood with something totally unsuited for the job and not know about it. I'd also like to know what kind of aluminium Husqvarna makes their pistons from and what rubber is used for the diaphragms in Walbro carbs. I am not going to sleep over Christmas now thanks to you

I use LM grease on all mine, same grease as car wheel bearings get. Bar tip sprockets get same.

Has that cat got egg noodles on its feet ?

They are now growing Douglas Spruce in Iceland!!!
peatff replied to TimberCutterDartmoor's topic in General chat
I asked this last year and posted a perfectly rational link. I certainly wouldn't stop shopping at Iceland because they call a tree by a different name to the one I use. I am well into their Greggs pasties at the moment though P.S. if you put Pseudotsuga menziesii on the label I'd probably think it was drugs -
I can see it in mine and your reply. Try a direct upload. 10.10 would do for me. Just a thought, if you had a bloke on there would it have a second finger ?

I found a meme that I thought was quite good.
