  2. Thats very cool! Never seen anything like that before. Nothing a Chainsaw Mill Cant do Id expect though? But The Skilsaw one would be more stable Id assume and more freedom.
  3. What's so good about them?
  4. Its sheared below the flush.
  5. No idea, most likely sold to me that way. I guess it had two good bolts remaining and one over the last three years stripped its thread and the last remaining good one backed off slowly.
  6. Aint that the truth. Im hoping some homebrew penetrator (acetone and ATF4) will loosen them up and the left hand drill bit will bite and pull them out. We'll see. Had a V8 with Spark Plugs that could not have been changed in 20 years, in alloy heads. Galvanic corrosion had set in and the only thing that budged them was the homebrew penetrator. (kinky)
  7. Seen it on a few places as well. Im assuming as we have to footage he never died. Just had a nice eyebrow wax.
  8. Not got a lot of cash right now. Saving all my pennies for a new Heating system for the house. Most likely a Gassifier and buffer outside as recommended by someone on here. My Stihl is great, just out of action. The model ID has rubbed off so I dont even know what it is, but it handles everything I throw at it. The SGS comes with a 3 year warranty, I have a feeling it will be getting a few repeat calls.
  9. They're sheared under the flush. Ive got some left hand threads and some easy outs coming in the mail. Will have a play when I back.
  10. Well, whilst opening up myself for endless ridicule I ended up getting this; 52cc 5in1 Multi Tool Garden Set: Chainsaw Trimmer Strimmer Brush Cutter WWW.SGS-ENGINEERING.COM The all in one solution to getting your garden in shape, the SGS 5 in 1 multi-tool strimmer, trimmer, and brush cutter comes... Its just to I get my main Strimmer back on-line and as others have mentioned that cant be too far away. No idea how it will hold up and if its any use what-so-ever but for £155 its worth a punt for the other odd-jobs I have around the place.
  11. Thanks for the suggestion. Not really on the cards and not so suitable for me with so much tree's on the plot.
  12. Never really used Husky stuff. My Old man swears by them hence why I use Stihl.
  13. I know, but my other option would be to buy another used Stihl Strimmer. I really dont know if 52cc is enough?
  14. So my Stihl Strimmer is out of action for a while. I bought it second hand and after 3 years of good service I notice two of the bolts holding the Head onto the shaft have sheared off and another thread is partially stripped out, so there is only one bolt keeping it together. I'll get it fixed but in the mean time I was thinking of getting this machine. Will it be any good for a 1.5 acre plot? Lots of weeds and bracken out the back. Wold this 52cc machine be up to the task? Seems very cheap. https://www.sgs-engineering.com/gps520-52cc-petrol-trimmer?utm_source=SGS+Engineering&utm_campaign=972068787a-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2019_09_06_Garden_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_cc26f39420-972068787a-110054065&mc_cid=972068787a&mc_eid=14cdf47d71
  15. There's no replacement for displacement-. Ah, beaten to it.
  16. I see you've doubled down on the Irony and have now entered Hypocrisy Grand Central Station. This really is gold.
  17. There is a certain level of irony here but I wonder if you'll figure it out for yourself?
  18. For sure! Much nicer. Similar to one I had lately.
  19. I am worried. But the Silver Lining is Im no longer worried about Labour getting into Number 10 as even they dont believe they will.
  20. The London Economic - Wikipedia EN.WIKIPEDIA.ORG ''The London Economic is generally supportive of Jeremy Corbyn, the current leader of the Labour Party, but has run editorials from anti-Corbyn politicians such as David Blunkett and London Conservative Party councillors. The website took a pro-Remain standpoint on the 2016 EU referendum.'' You can poke that guff where the sun dont shine.
  21. Good grief, Im still not sure if its delusion or Trolling? That man is hell bent on the utter destruction of the economic stability of the UK. He would also sell his first born to get into power. But he knows as well as any sane individual he does not have a Snowballs chance in Hell of getting into Number 10 any time soon. His Bluff has been called and he's been exposed for the fraud that he is. I think even the most ardent Liebour supporters, the sane ones anyway (oxymoron?) will be bitterly disappointed in him failing to grasp the chance of a GE. But you must know as well as I do Corbyn will lose a GE. So its clear Liebour do not have the public backing. The Will of the people is for Brexit and a hard one at that.
  22. I know! Who knew white rot and splits right up the middle where desirable? Not me anyway.
  23. I cant tell if you're being a Troll or are genuinely deluded?
  24. I must scrap way to much slabs. Id have cut the good bit out and burned the rest.
