@ratman can you find one of those witty memes to post, You know the one about NOT FEEDING THE TROLL

That's what I'd heard vaguely. I thought I'd get it from the horses mouth. Vosa and the dvla are combined now and dealt with the red diesel and mot, vehicle and license and trailer questions. Hmrc for ag,hort,forestry registration and Tax. I told them sometimes my work is 280 miles away. They said no limits. I will be writing to hmrc to confirm this in a letter as they suggested this to cover myself. It would be strictly for arb work. [emoji106]

Won't need it for a tractor with trailer [emoji3][emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

This morning I spent an hour and a half on the phone to hmrc and dvla. Lovely people [emoji3] I also have the same problem of moving wood. On a standard car license, I am allowed to drive any size tractor with any size of trailer with unlimited load, No mot, no tax, can run on red diesel and no limited mileage from base. Only limitation they mentioned was 2.45m max width. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

I spent two years fostering abused dogs when I was younger. From fox hounds to fighting pitbulls and dumped puppies. Everyone of those animals was messed up by its owners. Dogs aren't the problem. Its irresponsible owners who project human psychology onto an animal. 100 years ago 95% of all dogs were working dogs. Now it's less than 5%. Nearly all dogs are ornamental pets now!!!! People forget they were once wild wolves!!!! Handbag/fashion dogs?!?!? **** **** ****ers.

Stubby, I hate this shit. Irresponsible dog owners are wide spread. If I had a dog which would attack other dogs,(and I have)it would be on a very short leash. The whole scenario seemed to have been badly handled by plod. My sympathies to your sister in law. Get the dog back first is smart, as some animals mysteriously pass away in custody... Sadly courts take a dim view of dog attacks, justified or otherwise. [emoji51]

Honestly. Every time I've quoted £2-300 for pruning a huge overgrown apple or pear, I've not heard back. It's a long time consuming job if done correctly.

Sometimes you have to be the fists/club of karma. That's very real. -

There is something wrong here. I mill with a 48" duromatic bar with no oiler issues. Talk to your dealer.

Job description/What they mean (Just for fun)

Good working order: It won't start. -
Bit nasty, but get a jar of oil and an old paintbrush. Paint the oil into the bar groove liberally. If problem persists, it's really weird. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

STOP!!!! It's a brand new saw. Milling is really the worse thing a saw can do, it gets really hot. You need to break your saw in gently. For about 15-20 tanks. Don't use it for milling until 10 tanks, or you risk damaging the piston and cylinder. Just crosscut using short blasts. I ran mine strapped to a pallet, with a strap on half throttle, turn off let it cool , for a few tanks. There will be noticeable torque difference after about ten tanks which will improve gradually. [emoji106] So your saw head oils fine, but not onto the chain and bar?
-
Possible problems: How seasoned is the elm? Super hard wood is a bitch. Is the chain tensioned properly? A new chain will need to be re-tensioned several times. Run the machine out of the wood for a minute, is it oiled? Check the oiler is turned up? Oil filter? Oil hole on saw and check bar is clear of gunk. I run a 48" bar on my 880 with a mill. Seasoned ash is a killer, but otherwise no problems oiling. Have you ran the sawhead without bar and cover to see if it oils? Depth gauges? Are they at the correct height to teeth? Oregon chains are good, but need a 10degree camber to sharpen correctly. Different densities of internal wood can mess with the saw also. Let us know how you get on. [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
