I remember now, (about the hydraulic motor). Ti's the same. Think kwik chip have them as well. Ah well done anyway 👍

Any more pics? If it's similar to a tp, which, from your actions so far, it sounds like it is. It should come out of the bottom. Is the shaft and roller all one piece? Is there adjustment on the shaft to centre the roller? Seem to remember struggling, because it was tight, but when you get the angles right it comes without selecting the big hammer. So bloody heavy (the rollers) its a 2 man job, with only enough room for one

Wasn't my job, by the way, I'd have run a mile from that!

Looks like you've got good clean air wherever you are, with the lichen growth. epicormic growth on the tree?

This one seems harmless until you get the side on view

Surprised no one has mentioned Billy Bragg

Very nice. Doesn't look like there's much wrong with that!

Those of you out there making resin tables etc, where do you get your shuttering, and what do you use? Have you found anything that is re usable? Thanks

UB40, signing off. A whole protest album. There are bands out there doing it, but surprise, surprise, they don't get main stream media attention

Let us know how you get on 👍

Can you rotate the flywheel by hand. It could be material jamming it. Never had a forst, but had that problem with a kwikchip many moons ago. Certain bendy stuff would wrap itself around the spindle and jam it occasionally. I could be way off the mark though. Video would help

Agree with the above. A big saw will cut small logs, a small saw will struggle with big logs. So go bigger, within reason. All the 200 range are decent.Personally, I wouldn't bother with a quick tensioner. You will no doubt check your chain tension before starting. One adjustment, if it needs it, will probably do for a session. Buy a spare chain with the extra it costs. That's my advice

What a load of nonsense. And as for using a disclaimer as some sort of justification. How far do we take that? Racist, sexist views, are they ok to publish along side a disclaimer? Any editor worth his salt would have perused that article and deemed it inappropriate. Apart from anything else, it attacks the very people they want to attract. I've never had anything to do with the AA, and this just confirms to me that has been a good decision

I take your point Andy. I just think that if you add a larger volume to a more viscous smaller volume, it seems to mix easier. not going to fall out with anyone over how they mix fuel, or drinks.

With reference to what goes in first.You don't put cordial in after the water. I use the same theory with fuel

Too subtle.😉

when everyone, to a man disagrees with you, most people tend to take the hint.

There was a thread on here 4-6 weeks ago offering a job opportunity in New Zealand. They were offering training and help with visa application etc. They said they have had UK climbers. See if you can find it. Presume it will be be in job opportunity forum. Good luck

It was reference to baddiel and skinner, 1996 which was also hosted in England. If you really want to suck the life out of it. 😁

How long have us men been banging on about bringing it home. As usual, the women said ' ffs, I'll get it myself!'

The winner was a scrappy one inside the 6 yrd box? And yeah, great chip. I'd have put it in row Z

Maybe

Up until 3 weeks ago, and probably for the last 35 yrs, I would've agreed with you. But then...... 3 weeks ago! Had a customer, wanted the hedge across the drive (running with the road) levelling from the lowest point. They then wanted the hedge running from the house to the road reduced, to a specified height. I said ok, but the 2 hedge heights won't be the same. Had a job trying to explain to them why. They ended up saying 'just do your best, I'm sure it will be fine'. I did what they asked, it looked good, bur they weren't happy, because the hedge across the drive was lower. Offered to reduce the other hedge further (lower than they asked for originally) they didn't want that either. Ended up saying to them. Don't pay me, you're not happy, but don't ever invite me to work for you again. Had it been a bigger job, not sure what I would've done.

I'm doing the same work I was doing 30 years ago. So I'm not sure what that says about me. I'm actually considering regressing at the moment

It seems to me, there's no hard and fast rules. It should be down a mass brawl at the base of the tree.
