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.

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.

It’s utterly ridiculous that he has prioritised a bunch of feral dogs over human lives though.

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.

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.

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.

I note instead of carrying on our discussion you change tack to attacking a typo. Which means I win.

Dyslexic HGV Drivers.

I sold the 'Gas Guzzling' yank. I did less than 100 miles a year in it and averaged over 20mpg. It was build 50 years ago and is significantly better for the environment than scrapping it and buying a new car, be it petrol, diesel or electric, mainly because of the huge carbon footprint involved in the manufacture and shipping of a new car and all its components. What's the carbon footprint of ... a new car? | Environment | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM Making a new car creates as much carbon pollution as driving it, so it's often bettrer to keep your old banger on the road... I never said we should cut down on needlessly drilling for oil though, I said we should cut down on the needless use of oil. If the current lack of HVG Drivers means we end up shopping local, and buying more locally (even within the UK) then I see that as a positive. If we have to rely less on china for their junk then I see that as a positive. If we end up shipping less and less out of season produce around the world because we fancy an Avocado any time we feel like one I see that as a positive. So yes, as per usual you missed something

I fully understand we need to reduce our dependence on oil, but I dont not think we'll ever not need to produce it. Id sooner drill for more oil than cut down vast swathes of the worlds rain Forrest to make bio oil. I also can see the damage shipping vast amounts of needless junk around the world causes. Im my opinion there is nothing hypocritical in understanding we have a need for oil yet wish to lessen how much we use needlessly. There is very few 'greens' calling for an outright end to oil production. The people who I would call hypocritical are those who are calling for the end to oil production yet use the product in their daily lives. PS, why do you always end your posts with a K? Its not like we cant see your name in the top left hand of your post.

That will do the job well enough. Its at the cheaper end of the scale though so will potentially not be as accurate as a high end model at £200-£400. For a start it does not seem to have any clamp to hold the chain when the grinder is down so there will be a little play which will result in a little bit of inaccuracy. Will be more accurate than your Granberg and certainly better than your hand filing. Just turn the dial til you're sitting at 10 degrees instead of 30. Amazon.com WWW.AMAZON.COM This is one of two we have in the workshop. We have an older model, but basically the same.

No

Sounds good.

Good man! That’s gonna upset Markie though, he’s permanently a glass half full guy. How dare people see something positive in his constant one-man vitriol against the Tory Party.

Great news! Less Chinese Junk, less road pollution, smaller carbon footprint from shipping everything all over the world. Maybe we’ll now be forced to shop local and produce local instead of taking the cheap and easy option of dirty, and polluting one.

Get your missus to sell it?

Yes

I thought that guy got banned?

Honestly, just keep things simple. You’re really not going to notice much if any difference playing around with all the angles and depths. It’s certainly not worth it for milling Larch Cladding. When you’ve 10 years under your belt like Saul and have mastered the basics then by all means play around but til then I just don’t see the point. I’ve miles some fairly large logs with my 60” Panther and all my chains are at 10 degrees and I’m very happy with the finish.

Like you you mean?

Ah well, no point in getting wound up about it.

Sounds good.

They are great if used correctly. I’ve yet to have an issue with mine. But as I’ve mentioned before, I only use it in the field if I’ve hit a foreign object.

Oh cool, that certainly makes more sense. I like easy, so Id stick with the advice and go for that.

Totally, its highly important when Milling. Once you start to run off when Milling you've buggered not just one but two boards. Id use the 661 and not the 241 personally. Ive never milled 12" logs with an Alaskan though, so maybe something small will be ok for that? Little logs like that go on my Bandsaw.
