the all aussie dribble thread!

[Rudolf73]

its all jumped the shark now & ratings are finally dropping off, we will return to normal programs soon.

Speaking of any one seen American chainsaw,,, it grabbed my interest but so contrived was hard to watch a whole show

Ya saw that on telly a few months ago, can't believe its a real legit business? Spend about 5% of the time carving stuff and the rest just fart arsing around. Ahh well anything to get ratings I guess

Arr yes, he's getting on in years as all the good doctors are past retirement age.
His mate Terry helliwell from Wauchope (was the saw doctor from Skipper Australia in Sydney then Grafton) does mine.
I'm already getting to know Chris Gorton from Nelson Bay, he is takeing over from Terry soon as Terry is 74 years old ruffly.

Peter, for the average joe blow , consumer user of saws, buying a tachometer would be a waste of time!
Too many guys get caught up in top speed rpm's and forget about low speed mixture and idle speeds.
Most saws will produce maximum torque between 8,000/9,500 rpm, regardless of the top speed set via the mixture screw.
All saws can be tuned sufficiently by ear using the "4 stroking" method.
This is fool proof, especially for guys like myself , who live in high altitude, then drop down to the coast for an odd race.
Stick to the "4 stroking" method , or you will end up with a blown saw 4 sure.... Just my 20 cents worth!!!

thanks for your comment and thoughts, ive always done it the way you have and and never had trouble with the saws ,as you said, so i recon ill stick to what i know
last thing i would want is a stuffed saw and really ,i probably wouldnt know how to use the bloody thing anyway
so ill give the tach a miss

Will ask Johnny when I see him again he may of started at Skipper not Spear & Jackson as I said....Think it was Terry that did our saws for a bit there when Johnny was out with his shoulder.

Why do you live so far away? I'm prepared to meet you in the middle for a cuddle if that suits? I know you're emotional about it all too. We just have to keep our chin up and soldier on mate.
