  7. Walked on Dartmoor today and found a tin mining museum. This was a miners shovel.
  8. Got a handle in it, not quite to plan, lots of draw knife work
  9. Trying to make a long handle for a Cornish spade. Rather than spend a long time with a draw knife thought I would spend a long time trying to make a bigger one of these What is it called? Anyone know the technique to use one?
  10. Leak is right at buib, bulb is piped to carb, no idea what valves in place.
  11. Cleaned up and got her running without too much smoke! 2 issues, not all the chain oil is going along the chain, should there be some kind of gasket between the bar and the oil hole. Will not idle well, there is a leak in the purge bulb, will this effect running same as air leaks elsewhere or is the purge isolated from the carb when running? Sorry numpty questions. TIA OG
  12. His saw, trying to repair it to enhance my reputation from a bodger to a fixer😂
  13. Neighbour just put oil in fuel tank and fuel in oil tank. He then tipped out and replaced, then ran. Very smokey and lacking power. Having not stripped and cleaned an echo any tips and mistakes to avoid?

  15. Do you have plans for the shave horse or just from your head?
  16. Plenty added to the sacrifice metal!
  17. The pictures have appeared in the opposite order than they should have!

  20. As title, what's going on here?
  21. Off topic, cycled to and stayed in Llaniloes last week. Loved the high street and wool market, was a lovely billhook in the shop on the high street but was shut on sunday.
  22. Spot on , saw photo of church yard without tree about 100 years ago. Could not believe it was so young, looked like 500 year old yew.
