  1. I’ve got a cousin in law who’s a professional willow worker. Does mad living sculptures and huts etc. She also does live willow fencing. Lay two rows of willow just offset by an inch. About 4” apart. Then bend each alternate stem at 45 degrees and tie with waxed string. Creates a diamond shaped stock proof fence. Looks very nice too. [emoji106]
  2. If I hadn’t seen it, I’d be skeptical, But wow! what high pressure water will do is scary! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  3. I spent a few weeks cleaning hulls with a mega washer about 15 years ago. You’d have to brace yourself before firing or you’d get knocked over. It would strip everything back to shiny metal in one quick pass. It would also cut tarmac too. Was warned to keep it away from me feet. And it was 90 degrees centigrade water. Scary ass bit of kit. Probably overkill for a log bullet. 🤣[emoji106]
  4. It’s a protected species in the uk.
  5. Google Gary Larson. [emoji6][emoji106]
  6. Personally reckon you’d be better splitting it up. The saws are decent. The mill has a design flaw. Rollers will ride up on sawdust throwing the cut off. Honest opinion. [emoji106]
  7. The thicker the better. It can always be resawn. 3”,4” + [emoji106]
  8. They look really nice bud[emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  9. Old boy on our allotment set up a spade to swing in the face of any burglar who opened his shed door. Until one day he forgot... Wasn’t pretty.
  10. Hedge it! [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]
  11. Phone your local dealer or stihl technical department [emoji106]
  12. Anyone with the right tools will get in within a minute. [emoji22]
  13. Fantastic!!! [emoji7][emoji108][emoji108][emoji108][emoji108][emoji108]
  14. Which insurance firm do you use? Public and employers liability for use with chainsaws without tickets?
  15. Alder, willow, lime and birch will often turn orange when exposed to light and air when freshly cut. [emoji106]
  16. Show me where you put the battery in the petrol saw...?
  17. You failed to grasp the irony of my question. It’s a petrol saw in the photo.
  18. What did you do for the other two and a half hours? [emoji6][emoji106]
  19. Which battery do you use in that 261? [emoji6][emoji106]
  20. So if the wheels have power, what are the horses for? [emoji848]
  21. I don’t use aux oilers. Even on 84” bars, I can see they have a place though. [emoji106]
  22. How? With what experience are you certain of this? Rob.d is an importer! Not the manufacturer! Talk to GB in Australia? Rob.D is a very cool guy. Very tolerant... Understanding... Why would he block you and delete your account? Were you being an asshole? You keep coming on here repeatedly bleating about how lo pro is unfit for purpose... Having spoken to quite a few millers about this and the manufacturers... the conclusion we all came to was: USER ERRORS!!!
