I know this is not the right way to ask a question but I did ask ask a question and was advised that "all the required fields" had not been completed. BUT I can't find the required fields!

Hi,
I'm after a good debarker. I've been told Logmaster and logwizard are good but I don't know anything about them, except the logmaster can apparently also gouge a grooove trenches in logs. Any...

Ridley feed bags have one red string and 1or 2 white ones.
Is there a smart way to open the bag by cutting one string ?

An American longshoreman said something like "Abusing your opponents may very well titillate your supporters but it will disenchant those who are as yet undecided'. I think this was way back in the...

Thanks Guys. I'll keep your info on hand when I get further with the project.

I want to have a remote wireless camera about 100 yards from my PC to record the animal that's occasionally getting into my hen house and just killing a chook and leaving it there. It only happens at...

What's wrong with flattening WD40, or similar pressure cans, providing you release all the pressure from the can ?

I need to pour 4 inches of concrete onto a 6 inch re-inforced slab. I don't think I need to add reo to the additional 4" but I'd like some assurance please.

Thanks again ebaines. Concise and informative.

Thanks ebaines and tickle. I said good answers generate more questions : So if the millions of tons of CO2 keep building up in the atmosphere does this mean our air pressure at sea level is increased...

Thanks ebaines, that sums it up beautifully. Is its density the same as the air we breathe or is it floating way above the air somewhere. Sorry to ask another question, but that's the trouble with...

The carbon that is released into the atmosphere and causes climate change

I'd like to know where the carbon comes from, where it goes to, and does it stay there?

I want to find the width between the jaws of whitworth spanners so I can arrange them on my shadow board with my AF spanners. I suppose you'd call it AF-ising whitworth.
Any help please ?

I have a Microcut lathe that was made in Taiwn in 1985. It is screw cutting capable but I don't know a thing about screwcutting but am anxious to learn. I've tried contacting the makers but without...

Thanks NeedKarma. I can understand what you say but would'nt it be easy just to not have plan at all and have a simple bill with Date, Site, Volume, and Price ? I appreciate your time and effort.

Thanks for the quick response. But surely it's not rocket science. They get millions of mobile transactions and can supply the exact details. The existing system is leaving it open to abuse. What...

My ISP says it can't provide me with the sites I downloaded from or the time taken to download. This seems to be the same with other providers. But they can tell you how much you have downloaded and...

Thanks, 21Boat.
I need to cut a curve in 3" thick hardwood. It's too heavy to use my pedestal bandsaw so I need to fix the 10 foot length to a bench ,and was hoping to use the hand-held bandsaw to...

Has anyone out there had experience of using a Makita, or other make, hand-held bandsaw? I'd like to know at what speed they would cut 3 inch thick hardwood or similar.

Thanks dobiefloyd. I'll check that out. But a cat in the chicken shed? We just had one get in and eat two chickens! But I suppose if it had eaten all the chickens we wouldn't have a mouse problem...

Thanks Bones 253100 ! I'll pursue that and let you know how the results.

It's a hen house. But at the moment it's more like a mouse house.

Mice are getting into my chook shed but I can't find out where. I'd like to let video run in the shed at night to locate the problem. Any help will be appreciated, but it needs to be simple and cheap...

I have a leak in my underground poly pipe but I cannot locate the source, and the water must be getting away somewhere other than on my property. I'd be most grateful for a solution to the problem....

I use a laser pointer for marking projects inside my workshop but unless it is dark I can't see the laser outside the workshop. I've heard that special glasses can be purchased but haven't been able...

Thanks for the responses but I want to avoid using stringlines, and I know the height of the chord. I was just wishfully hoping for an easy way to make a template, but thanks anyway.

I am building a garden bridge with an arch which is part of circle that has 25 foot radius.
The bridge is only 12 feet long over the arch. Because the radius is too long for my work area I would...

Thanks to hkstroud and rtw for your comments

Somewhere or other I saw a video of a portable mill that used a circular blade of around 18 inches or so in diameter. Its advantage was that could do a virtical cut on the out run, and a horizontal...

Thanks for the plan, HKSTROUD, but as I said, it's a STUMP, and I don't fancy digging it out of the ground to lay it flat to do the job. I've been doing exactly what you advise for years and it is...

Thanks KISS. I've tried those chains without reasonable results, probably because it's Australian hardwood I'm dealing with. But I'll have another look at the sites you mentioned.

I have a few stumps that I want to turn into seats, which means cutting down through the stump to about 15 inches above ground level. My 4 horsepower chainsaw won't even look at doing it !
I've...

Thanks Galactus and Unknown 008. I have finally figured it out with your help. If I knew how to attach a drawing to my question ,like galactus did, it would have been a easier for me to show what I...

Thanks galactus, I'm not sure I asked the question properly. What I'm looking for is what the elevation would be 11 feet BELOW the observation point "A" in your drawing.

If I know the angle of elevation of an object is 58 degrees at 50 feet from the object, is there any simple way of calculating what the angle of elevation would be 11 feet below the observation point...

I have a dated dumpy level that I would like to add something to in order to measure the angle of elevation of buildings, trees and other objects. It doesn't have to be exactly perfect and doesn't...

What has happened to the three-dot symbol for "therefore" in mathematics ?
It's not on keyboards anymore, so what takes its place ?

I would like to know what pressure is required to close a swage on a half-inch wire cable.
I've been using cable grips but the swages look better and are apparently stronger.
Any help with this, or...

I have a need to bend a couple of roofing sheets at about a 12 inch radius WITHOUT using special equipment. I remember the Army using something to do the job for trenching around corners. Any help...

When I go for a walk I like to listen to the radio but I have trouble with headphones because I can't hear runners or pushbike coming behind me. I then tried a hand-held radio but the sound would...

Thanks for for response, Esquire1, but the old fridge I've got in my shed didn't cost much more than $200 ! I guess I'll just have to get used to paying that or putting up with the old trays.

Other than using little trays filled with water and placed in the freezer, is there any way of getting cubed or crushed ice without too much cost ?

I have recently developed pain in the hip area and can't decide if it's bone, tendons or something else causing the problem. Has anyone got any advise on what to do ?

I need to occasionally cut round pipe at an angle but always have trouble. Is there any way of doing this by marking out line with a pattern or similar device? The only cutting devise I have is 9"...

Thanks Julie. I'll give a try.. and yes, I'll at least try to have fun!!

I'd like to know a simple way to get a rope over high branches, say 60-80 feet high.
Any ideas ?
