  1. It's highly suspicious, I won't deny it. But, could also be the Zelenskey curse. Normally takes a year + to activate.
  2. Ah, so a big battery. 3,072Wh, does that mean it can produce 3 kilowatts for an hour?
  3. Got to make the most of your wins when they happen, I suppose 😜 So does it mean the Venezuelan gangsters will have to be imprisoned in the US instead?
  4. I'm intrigued. Don't know how the Kommune system works but I'd assume someone with clout on the committee got a bee in their bonnet, without thinking it through. This kind of thing isn't normal in Norway, right?
  5. It's a point. Whisper quiet genie to run a nominal corded saw. Solves the noise issue. If the cord is long enough, maybe solves the oddball rules of the job regarding petrol machines. Not sure the Noway Kommune job would permit the generator, in principle. But the cord is a deal breaker for arb work (in general, depends I suppose).
  6. They serve a niche. Low noise applications, nothing else will do (yeah, manual saws..) Backpack battery, or a dozen batteries, they can do the same job as petrol, at many times the cost of purchase. Some applications, light hedging, pruning, strimming, battery competes quite well. Crosscutting big logs, no, but if it has to be done quietly, then it can be done, for a price.
  7. In Africa they walk miles and miles for a few spindly sticks. We don't appreciate what we have, sometimes..
  8. Left wing anarchists consistently slightly outperforming right wingers. Islamists absolutely dominating the field. Weird uptick in "unspecified" since 2018.. (edit - 2016, maybe not so weird).
  9. Just a moment... WWW.CONSILIUM.EUROPA.EU https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/infographics/terrorism-eu-facts-figures/#0
  10. What's the per capeta ratio of native Swedish rapists to foreign born or migrant background rapists, in Sweden? Trump didn't rape anyone. You can flog that fake horse forever, it will never make it be true. Honest people know a political stich up when they see it.
  11. He splits "15 ton" a day. Love the proximity of the rope and spoked wheel, very 19th century.
  12. Islam isn't a race
  13. I started in the woods at 9 years old. We used to grind stumps by hand back then, with a mattock and bar. A bag of rice, a tin can and a box of matches, that's what the old man would give us to live on for three weeks while we felled a hundred ton each - minimum, and ground the stumps. The hardest of work, lads.. But it was honest work.
  14. And stop the stump from rotting..
  15. Because they're orange
  16. Stihl battery saws shouldn't show reduced cutting ability from abuse, however that's defined in battery saw terms, as they are brushless. They can't over-rev, and they're bogged the controller just shuts off the power.
  17. Does dirty engine oil actually preserve timber? I wonder if this is folklore or true. Like it will waterproof for a while, but beyond that, is it really any better than clean oil?
  18. Yeah that one. I can get one for €225. After searching there are threads about them going back to 2012 so if they're still around they're probably ok.
  19. It would be a pity if that tree blew over at night in a storm, into your property. Or even was stressed enough to damage the root system and end up leaning into your property. That would really be a dangerous situation. No way the neighbor could argue about that.
  20. Lump hammer is too brutal. Build a jig involving a bottle jack, for controlled, incremental pressure.
  21. Take a diamond file to the faces of the problematic drive links. Thin them a bit and try again.
  22. The few times I wanted to true the rails I used one of these. The bed is pitch adjustable and you can check with a square. Highly controllable.
  23. The orphans don't hold ANY of the cards, Peds 😞
