  1. I still have one and the tapered auger that matches it. When I was apprenticed as a carpenter I used them to make a pole ladder, that also required me to rip down a timber scaffold pole. I still possess the ladder.
  2. Glad to see they are back, I counted over 20 of them at one point. A procession of adults bringing in the supplies.
  3. Still looking for a handle for my adze, it's been in the family for at least 150 years and was last used by me to cut the tenons on arris rails. They were supported in a V notch in a piece of 4x2.
  4. For what it's worth, I had the same problem with my L200, turned out to be dodgy relay, quick swap, problem cured.
  5. When I am running sheep in the winter I cut a strip around the pastures for the electric fence with my faithful ford 39/10 and votex topper, this copes with the usual brambles and ever encroaching blackthorn. Bit wider than the op wants, but the principle is the same. Wonder what happened to the Bamford Bandit?
  6. I've often wondered about the top cutting edge of the tooth having a chisel edge from a grinder and a slightly undercut edge from a round file.
  7. Lodge rl47 spark plug and a gentle touch have always worked for me.
  8. Often out in the garden, we have a red kite doing low speed aerobatics about 50' up. It seems to be looking for us to provide food, do people feed them I wonder?
  9. I've dealt with a few hung up windblown and always used a steel rope.
  10. I had this happen a few years ago, the steel/rubber bond breaks down. From memory, I had the same problem with a Jet80 sidecar in the last century.
  11. Not forgetting water mains, telephone, electric, gas and fibre optic.
  12. That could easily be one of my sites.
  13. Get it gone while you have the chance.
