    Another addition to my arsenal of electric ardening devices. Looking back on this I wonder how I avoided cutting my hand off!

      I think the most dangerous thing in his garden is him, not the saw.;)

      Glad he dont live next door to me.

              Liking the look of that B&D Scorpion. If I had that I could get really dangerous and maybe the neighbours really will move out :)

                It terrifies me when I have to use it, but much easier than an ordinary saw, I just don`t have the strength anymore. [​IMG]

                  There are some jobs that I like to do in the early evening Pam, with a glass of red wine to one side and the sun gently slanting across the garden. This definitely isn't one of them!

                    Good to know you are still with us Paullypaul:). I don't suppose you remember Kenny Everett he did a electric jig saw sketch. He was cutting along and his hand was obviously in the way of the blade he kept going with splattered glasses talking all the time.
                    And as he would say "And now for something completely different".
                    A glass of red wine that is a very good idea. Sun just gone, nice evening, a glass coming up.

                      Thanks for the well wishes Hans. I am probably far more likely to get red spattered glasses by sneezing into a glass of sauvignon than cutting my arm off. All in the best possible taste!

                      As Kenny would say :)

                      I've got one of those as well and I love it. I even used it to cut through some thick metal poles which were holding up the arbour, although it was hard going. Brilliant for wood though.
