Cool. My mate had a great idea to save some money and decided to do our groceries through "Coles Online". When we got there all of our lovely food was sitting there in boxes.

Half was already mouldy

Had to buy bread locally at something like double normal RRP.

Hmm, tobacco burst les Paul copy and what looks like a Paul Reed Smith hanging on the wall ?
And is that a set of D'addario strings on the bench?

yeah its a solid slab of Mahogany (non chambered body) with flamed AAA hard maple cap and long deep set neck ..Came out of the epiphone Factory ,better quality and sounding than any of the newer chambered cheese holed gibby's. yeah D'addario 52's -10's at the moment

Ah, now i see it's a custom, i had a epip LP standard in honey burst when they first came out, beautiful looking tool, but the pickups were crap!
Have you checked out the jap made Gibson LP Orville?...... Also i see you can now buy the wiring and switches on ebay to covert the LP humbuckers to coil tapping.

yeah been hunting for a mint Vintage MIJ Orville for a while. Funny i was in the local shop a month or so ago and there got some 'new' Orville LP's on the rack but there the cheaper chinese made range ,they can order the higher end models in that are MIJ apparently ..... prefer the 80's one's tho, nearly picked up a early 80's yamaha Lord player LP last week . theres a guy just up the road from me selling tons of good quality imported gear for modding guitar on ebay ,In Mogo NSW.

Been a long while since my 4x4s have had those modern brakes,,,, in fact all mine have had discs on the front.
Very clever the Land Rover people to use tried and proven ways of stopping.
Oh and is that tyre removal and jack up standard procedure as per manual ??????.

Best go to work now.

Welcome Personally I haven't had much experience with 038/380 type saws but don't stress about limited rpm's. Apart from off their nut race saws you'll never get near the limiter in the cut anyway. It can sometimes help with basic tuning but in the end saws should be ideally tuned in the cut anyway.
For example my Dolmar 7900 (79cc) is quite extensively modified and that still runs the 13,500rpm limiter. The most it will pull in the cut is around 11,000rpm. If you can hit the limiter in the cut outside of race type saws then something is wrong (with the odd exception like US delivered Husqvarna 3120's).

[VinceGU05]

went camping with the fella's over the long weekend and extended it with friday off as well.
managed to go thru nearly 3 trailer loads of wood.


what was left after 4 days.


one of the fellas brought his ms192 wonder twins. cute little things hangin with my 461


probably seen these before.. they are called trees.


morning fire build up to get her cranking again.

road blockage dealt with. probably cause have just left the chainsaw in the truck.


mate looking for wood. this track became bit of a struggle after the rain. especially towing the trailer up.. video to come soon.


the boggers are bloody great at filling the trailer with clay!

Had a funny one on Saturday. Got my old 7900 back from Al (AUSSIE1) after it did the rounds to Rick first etc. I don't reckon I've seen that saw for maybe 3 years. Anyway I'd grabbed the ported top end off of Al a while ago and sold it. Fitted one of the BB kits I have here and do you think I could get the bastard to rev over 9000rpm? Leaned the thing right out and thought in the end there must be a bloody air leak or a blocked up carby - it was running weird. Sealed off the muffler and pulled the back apart to get to the carby (HD filter kit) and there it was - I hadn't run the throttle cable properly! Fixed all that up and the thing runs like a champ. I was planning to sell it to a mate and keep my 288XP but in all honesty this would give the 288 a run for it's money so I'll keep it and sell the Husky - regrettably. That old 288 is a nice saw but I don't really need 5 saws in the same class

good God man, the prodigal son returns !
