  1. Ive never tried it but would like to give it a go one day. Is it true that if you pick up a stone you have to use it?
  2. True, I just really like Danish Oil. Leaves a hard film and is child and food safe.
  3. From ''thats not a resin finish' to Nice table that. :D:D What a plonker.
  4. You can get this finish with Danish oil if you've sanded well and done the final coat of Danish Oil with a Green Scotchbrite.
  5. That seems dirt cheap to be honest. But I guess there is only so much you can learn from that. Still sounds well worth doing if nothing else turns up. Our local collage does courses in Dry Stone Walling, but we are in farming country.
  6. They are a well built bit of kit but certainly not that well built. Cutting edge is taking it way to far IMO. As you say plenty of small changes could be made to make a good design better. I guess we’re too spoilt with the standards a real harsh environment requires equipment to be built to. 🤣
  7. I get a good supply of half empty bottles of Loctite. Just as well really. 🤣
  8. Oh cool. I should contact Rob about warranty, I never thought about going down that road. Cheers.
  9. Will be at least 20 years before they disapear.
  10. As I mentioned, its little more than a side note, although Ive got hours to kill Im certainly not gonna do so on an irrelevance. You raised the point yet seem unable to elaborate further, so lets just put this one to bed, huh?
  11. Not even an indication of what way the wind is blowing? Whos got the time to read through 70 pages of guff on a subject thats little more than a side note?
  12. What a surprise you're fawning over her over reaction since she claims to be double jabbed.. Funny how you expect everyone else to stick to the rules but when the rules no longer suit you, ie expected of you to vaccinate your children you say feck that. How very selfish of you! What about Grannie?
  13. Im not disagreeing with you but from what Ive read thats the UK pulled out completely now but have left hundreds stranded. I think when faced with the situation they where all put in he should have realised human life (in this instance) is worth more than a few rabies infested mutts and if he was bringing a flight over to rescued dogs he should have forfeited that goal and rescued people instead. I dont buy his story that the people working for him said leave us behind and rescue the dogs, Im sure he just did a Biden and did a fly bolt. Just looking at him makes my skin crawl. Ironically Im not saying that all these Afghans should come to the West. Rescue them yes, but their Muslim brothers in the Middle East should practice a little more of what they preach and offer to re-home all these people. How on earth we're gonna house all these folks and their extended families I'll never know.
  14. Oh yes, I agree the blame lies firmly with the government or more accurately the current and inept US Administration. Our government I feel where kept in the dark regarding Bidens midnight flit and has been playing catch up Like every other allied partner. The fact remains that there is a limited number of slots for planes to take off and land and at the very end every flights count. To use one of the very last flights out to ensure his pets get out is shameful. To add to that shame it seems like Boris’s bint got it pushed through.
  15. It’s utterly ridiculous that he has prioritised a bunch of feral dogs over human lives though.
  16. People are slightly taken aback when I tell them I have four children and when prompted to tell them their ages and they are all from the same woman. Good to know Im helping the environment in keeping her along for the ride. And when I say environment I mean the one at home.
  17. Thats good then. Seems a nice wee grinder for the money. Its handy to re-zero the chains after a days filing or use of the Granberg. But if the Granbergs been set up right its almost as good as a bench grinder. Just check the length of the teeth with the Granberg as you move over to the opposite set of teeth.
  18. So you agree with me, and the Guardian article that its better for the environment to keep an older car on the road instead of buying a new one? And you agree its better for the environment to reduce our consumption of junk from around the word, namely China? I assume you also agree with shopping locally and buying locally made produce? What exactly do you think you've pulled me up for? You could just say you where wrong instead of throwing you toys out the pram and picking up a typo.
  19. I note instead of carrying on our discussion you change tack to attacking a typo. Which means I win.
