Just checked mine unfortunalety it is lower so It's not really practical/safe to start messing about and raising it. Thanks for your trouble Cheers Paul

Is this the saw on legs? If so would you be kind enough to let me know how high it is. I've got a b&q evolution table saw and another table the same height would be handy. Cheers Paul

Pm also not recieved. Also boohoo

I'll take a set of these as well please. Pm inbound. Cheers Paul

Payment sent with details. Many thanks

You have pm for details if compressor

Soldering the joints also helps to avoid fluctuating current.

Forgot all about Minder, think it was the only program that I used to come home early (it was a school noght after all) to watch.

1, Sopranos 2, Auf Wiedersehen Pet (Germany & Spain) 3, The West Wing And if I wanted to go back to my childhood it has to be Grange Hill, Tucker Jenkins and the gang. Makes you want to start trawling ebay for the old dvd collections.

Great gun tried several before I went for it. Being my first fac rifle there was loads of choices all with their own pro's and cons. But I am well impressed with it and find the bolt action has got really smooth after a bit if use. Paid £550 for mine cut at 16" with sak mod. I have found that it prefers red/blue tip ammo best out of the few that I have tried.

I have also been thinking whats the difference if any. Been zeroing my first 17hmr @ 100yds (Browning T Bolt) and was using Winchester supreme but was getting frustrated as I was only getting accurate to about 40mm. so run through some Remmingtons and then some red tips and blue tips. Out of them all I found the blue tips grouped within 15mm, red tips were about 20mm. They all cost the same £10 but I find it strange how different brands perform when you would think they should be the same, these are after all a mass produced item. Psycologically now I think that I need to stick to the blue tips and swapping will make my accuracy go down the pan!

Maguires for me, been involved with classic and prestige vehicles for years. This is the best car care product by miles!!

You have pm, for photos

Not even heard of the mach 2 before. Would this go on on your ticket under 17hmr?? or is it another style that would require another variation? Cheers Paul

Can you transfer the warranty on these now? I looked at one a few months back and the warranty could not be transfered from the original purchaser.

Think they also go under the name AJ Jewson and are open everyday except Sunday, not used them myself but my friend swears by them for his cartridges as they sometimes have specials in. Its easier and quicker if your on the M62 to go to Aaron Wheeler in Brighouse (closed Sunday & Monday). sound guy + very helpful.

Try NFU they do a couple of quads for me and a van. Plus they are are mutual so you get a discount after your 1st year.

Cheers guys, I get the impression that us town n city folk have to travel further and further to drop on a permission. I do have a small permission 5 minutes down the road that I don't want to over shoot, but with this second one I take the view of beggars can't be chooser's and it is a nice drive!

Just curious as to how far people will travel to their permission. I have just dropped lucky and obtained my second permission, its a good hour and a quarter drive. Its a big lump of land (livestock not crops) with plenty of rabbits and crows with the odd small flock of wood pigeon, so I can get a few shots off when I walk around. When talking about it with some of the lads at my clay club a few said they would not spend that time driving so far to a permission. I like most struggled to get anywhere to shoot and found this type of comment alien. I work 6 days a week so am limited to evenings/Sundays but I never gave the distance or time a second thought. This got me to thinking how far people do actually drive or would be willing to travel? Was this just the comment of a "clay snob" of am I just over eager in willing to travel that far?

Just acquired a Franchi semi auto, Variomax 712. Looking for a choke key the original has been lost by the previous owner. Cheers Paul

unclestuffy Thought I would pop up a note on my success with finding a permission and how I had approached the farmer, also the invaluble experiance gained from being shown the ropes by yourself and Daveo26. Without my change of approach and talking with the extra confidence about what I was proposing I'm not sure that I would have been so lucky with getting farm. Only problem is once I start typing I end up writing a full novel!! Will speak soon, and will let you know if I hear owt back about the second farm.

Got my 1st permission on a farm only 500m from where I live, not a big sprawling farm but it has trees, hedgerows and the canal runs alongside, but it is my 1st permission whoo hoo! When I had my initial wander (wasn't expecting too much) took note of the where the pigeons were plonking themselves, also plenty of rabbits spread around. Then I stumbled upon 4 pairs of ducks on a little stream, this drew the comment from the farmer that he gets flocks of Canada geese coming onto the canal and his fields in the winter (some of which will not be re-patriated come the appropriate season). I was well impressed with my little oasis of wildlife it was beyond all my expectations. I invited PW members and mentors unclestuffy & Daveo26 over to have a wander and get their thoughts, we arranged to go out last night and for them to show me the delights of lamping. We came across 4 deer, half a dozen basil brushes and plenty of rabbits they also agreed that it was a cracking little farm. Prior to my getting this permission I had spoken to several farmers but with no joy and was starting to get a bit down hearted, Luckily I have been taken out a few times by unclestuffy & Daveo26 onto 1 of their permissions, there they showed me some fieldcraft how to set myself up etc. This showing me the ropes gave me a bit more confidence when speaking to farmers when seeking permission. With this new confidence I approached the local farmer who ran his farm as a livery yard. I had always thought asking him would be a waste of time thinking the people paying him to look after their horse would not appreciate me being on the land. When I spoke to him I mentioned that I could use a moderated 410 to keep as discreet as possible, also turned up with a nice aerial photo of the area allowing us to identify his land. I also showed him my permission form explaining my insurance cover and absolving him of any liability (thanks unclestuffy). He was most impressed by the aerial photo and permission form, also the option of me using a moderated gun (which he had never seen before). The moderated gun and permission form were the deal clinchers and he was more than happy to sign up and give me permission. He also added that I would be ok using un-moderated 12g away from the animals, which opened up my options even more. This has taught me how important it is to not just turn up and offer to shoot vermin/pests, you have got to demonstrate a bit of proffessionalism regarding the equipment that you can use for different situations and also your knowledge of the surronding land. This gives people confidence in you, I feel that initially I was lacking this in my approaches to landowners. To anyone still seeking their 1st permission I would say don't give up a change of tack may produce results, if your lucky enough to get the chance to go out with someone to learn the the ropes even better the knowledge will be a great for giving you confidence when speaking to landowners.

Try Dacre son & Hartley estate and land agents (Ilkley office I think) They manage a lot of land that is let out to various shoots + farmers. You may drop lucky and find a parcel of land somewhere, good luck.

Baikal 410 forend stock including iron (single barrel), mine has gone walkabout! And they dont rush to send them over from the USSR. Cheers Paul
