  1. If it keeps happening, just learn this song and sing it while you're climbing.
  2. The Stihl pro models are made in Germany (crankcase castings, assembly). Cylinders etc I think are Italian. Some models of polesaw and other items made in USA. Guessing all plastic parts made in China. Husqvarna who knows where? Friends 572xp blew it's muffler off. Company I did my tickets with supplied two 550xp for the felling ticket course, both refused to stay running. After the second day the three of us, instructor, me and another lad were all using my MS201 back handle for everything. For the assessment, the company owner bought a new MS260.
  3. So how exactly does the stabiliser stabilise the ethanol? Does is chemically bind to it and prevent it from hydroscoping?
  4. Erudite? Is also French, non?
  5. It's French, non?
  6. Yeah me too, was shot down for being negative about cyclists. My question was/is how much extra fossil fuel is burnt every year due to multiple motorists being slowed down by solitary cyclists? And how many man hours lost?
  7. Also "Soaring", "Plummeting", "Crisis", "Underprivileged", "Sensitive" etc.
  8. I never realized I also hate those words, untill now!
  9. Anyone watched the Stephen Fry "Debunking Brexit" series? Thoughts?
  10. I read a terrifying thing today, that in 2050, Britain's climate will be comparable to present day Barcelona.
  11. Been a rough day?
  12. The Bus...the Bus...so many people still butthurt about the Bus. See it on interviews all the time, when their argument against democracy fails, they dredge up the Bus again.
  13. My takeaway from the cycling thing says he's his own man. He got stick for it, didn't he? Showing up the hipocracy of his peers, with their taxpayer funded mercs, re. air pollution. But he didn't care, kept right on pedalling. That tells me he's not a moral wimp, at least, whatever else he may or may not be. And he was a good enough Lord mayor wasn't he? I don't know, I'm no expert. Surely better than his sucsessor.
  14. In fairness to him, he actually walked the walk on the whole cyling to work thing didn't he?
  15. Like this?
  16. I understand you are worried. But, given your very minor symptoms, I doubt any doctor will give you a definitive HAVS diagnosis. I get a number finger tip in my ring finger sometimes, for no apparent reason. It lasts a few days then goes back to normal. Worrying about it will be probably worse for your health than the actual nerve damage, if any. Just upgrade your machinery to the lowest vibes models, wear normal gloves, and take breaks. Maybe go electric for the worst offendors.
  17. What's a gulpin? (I googled it - all I got was it's also a type of Pokémon) Worst tool I have for vibes is a little Bosch multi-cutter, the one with all the different shaped saw blades that moves side to side about 2 millimeter and a million times a second.
  18. Shtable out boyo...
  19. You should be scared.
  20. They already have our DNA from the doll brothels.
  21. I'm on my third shaft. The bearings wear out. Fixit guy at the dealership sold me a wee bottle of special stihl polesaw shaft oil, said a light coating every once in a blue moon will do. Apparently it carries over to the bearings and increases the lifespan of the shaft
  22. This tribe was pretty remote no? How and what we're their plans for spending the cash?
