Tis the season to see Fungi, fa la la la la....
Ratman replied to David Humphries's topic in Fungi Pictures
Hey all, completely no idea on this subject at all, but some of the pics are really smart. So as a complete no hoper on the fungi scenario..... if you find fungi on a tree or around its roots, does it automatically mean the tree has caught some kind of disease? And does it typically mean the tree is on a downward spiral in relation to its health / life span? -
“Loot”...... will you get enough for that one way ticket you’ve always wanted?....... to Bermuda via that triangle!

This guy is in greece, i’ve bought before and also many others off here with no issues [emoji106] just read the description carefully before you commit as there are different bore sizes depending on specific model. Any issues post again and will help if i can. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F172246141069

I have a lot of the 18v dewalt range of tools with added batteries, was thinking of having the 18v chainsaw for just knocking around at home. If you own a particular brand of battery power tools then majority of the brands now offer a chainsaw in their range, could make sense for you if you have extra batteries etc to follow suit.

Surely over revving of the engine (if the cause of piston failure) would of left evidence in the cylinder bore?
-
Whats your assumption spud? A malformed / badly cast piston? Very unusual occurrence, but in in the field we’re in, obviously the unusual is always possible?
-
Dont write it off too easily, things can look worse than they actually are. Try using some muriatic acid (swimming pool cleaner) to clean bore. Or i’ve used acetone previously also. Trying to use use a cylinder honing tool will be hard and prob not feasible due to the 2 stroke cylinder designs. Spudulike will prob be able to advise a little more tho. [emoji106]

Ratman replied to swinny's topic in Large equipment
Can get equivalent wattage led to halogen swinny yeah, some cheaper ones can give poor visibility (really weird type of light, bit dazzling) but middle of the row to dearer led’s tend to have better patterns and are a good light with less dazzle for you and others. Would recommend these days yeah, earlier days gone by when led’s were just coming out they were less reliable and expensive, but they’re quite reasonable now really. -
Whats up with it? Have you stripped it?
