I used to gave one, may still be inbthe loft!
What are they worth now?
I have one of those & they're a great little saw. Don't be tempted to put on the longest suitable bar, it kills the power on it. Stick with a 12" bar & you'll have a powerful branching saw that's very easy on fuel.

I actually wanted a saw to keep in the van, I drive 45 miles to work along a tree lined road (A377) and have been stuck in traffic several times due to trees down on the road!
We have a 20" Stihl and a 15" Husky 50 (Fantastic saw!) So a 12" will fit in nicely....

What's your thoughts on it? Iv got air one at work and it's invaluable, but I don't have air at home so thinking of getting one..is this the 10 or 13mm?
Not as good as I thought to tell the truth it just doesn't spin fast enough, I hate cables so it has that covered I also got this of a local lad

Anything between twenty and a hundred, depending on the actual model and condition.
Seriously, if you're selling it, drop me a line, I'd be interested.

Somone at work has a fancy expensive jetboil thing in the van for making coffee. It works but a bit large. Another guy has a tiny lightweight 25gram stove.. this sort, but the flame is a bit too concentrated for anything but boiling water.
I dug out an old Epigas camping stove to try, its shiet and heavy, 400 grams and not nice to use.
Amazon found one for £8, light at 95 grams, and has a sparker.
Tested it cooking an egg, took seconds, tho the legs too short to support a normal pan properly on their own.
Also got a tent.. plan a climbing trip at weekend but its going to require camping.
Did a test in the lounge (as its wet out) and found it easy enough to set up and pack away, but its too damned short. Im only 187cm, so from the spec I should have 23cm gap split between the ends.

At last I have an Italian redhead back in my life!
This is the 782XL; I did have the slightly more voluptuous 784XL but alas I dropped her a few years ago; cracked her main pivot (did get a replacement) but more fatally damaged the motor and speed controller and she eventually gave out the magic smoke a few years ago. I'd tried to make do with an Evolution TCT saw but they lack the finesse I want for smaller parts - and the FEMI doesn't spit shards everywhere.
Thanks @Tom Orrow L at Welding Supplies Direct!

Didn't really need a second heat gun, but I'm a sucker for a bargain - nice thing is it also takes all the accessories from my fancy one, and it will be less painful if I drop it.

Yesterday , with others, were allowed to "raid" old allotments. On the grounds we removed the contents of the sheds.
To be honest 99.99% of the shed contents were fit for the scrap pile, or to be burnt.
But today we rescued over 100 stawberry plants.
I got this.

Can I ask what you do with all this stuff?
It seems like you get a good few items each week. Do you collect it all or are you involved in a business or charity?
Apologies if this comes across as a personal question I'm just curious what you do with it all!
