Dear Neil.
Can you PLEASE stop calling, texting and emailing me pleading for one of these Chinese race chains. I've told you before that it won't be happening.
As for you Will Hutchins you're no better.
Haven't heard from Dean. I suppose he's waiting for one of you guys to get your grubby little mitts on one so he can copy it?
Bob must have already mastered the art of Chinese race chain. I thought he'd be all over these like a fat kid on a cupcake but alas...


Nah not a fake Makita despite the colouring. It looks exactly like the poxy Hyundai ones that we were selling through work. Just a different colour.
 
so much #### out there and people are dumb enough to buy it
so they keep on making it

Take a look in your local supermarket and see where most food is coming from nowadays. Even "Made In New Zealand" on a label has shown to be false as it is only packed in New Zealand from Chinese produce to skirt around our labelling laws. A lot of the time it is not because people are dumb but because they don't actually know any better. I had a very smart mate of mine want to buy an MS380 off of eBay thinking that it was the real deal as he knew no different.
The biggest problem is actually not us, but the larger corporations/businesses/supermarkets who are incorporating foreign content into every business plan they do up simply to make more money.
This is why I get the sh*ts on when somebody has a crack at me for importing a few Chinese Husky 365 copies. I am but a flea on an elephant's back in the grand scheme of things. Sure I'm part of the problem however 0.000000000000001% is actually statistically insignificant. Especially when I flat out refuse to intentionally buy food made outside of Australia, the US, or England.
 
that is why I try to grow most of my veg and fruit
you are right it is the big shots flooding the market with it

Yep. Most fresh fruit and veg is grown in Australia but the frozen and tinned stuff is a worry.

It's a sad state of affairs when the average Australian thinks that the imported concentrate orange " flavoured" crap that fast food places sell is what real orange juice is meant to taste like...
 
real orange juice an orchid about 30min drive from hear makes the best iv ever
had most of the local shops stock it to witch is good

Growers here have just been told that the best they'll see for this season's crop of Valencias is about $180 a tonne. Basically at or slightly below the cost of production.
The citrus industry as a whole (with a few exceptions) is a dead duck with the dollar where it is.

Come on Neil. You know the rules. You can get banned for stalking people like me.
On another note Neil I just found out I'd actually mounted this first Chinese race chain on backwards. I'm a bit too scared to run it the right way around...

that is day light robbery

From every tonne of citrus there is about 650 litres of juice. Therefore the actual grower only gets about $0.27 a litre. Between the grower and the supermarkets are generally one packing shed and a bottling plant or in some cases just one shed/bottling plant combined. Now go and look at fresh juice prices of around $2.50 a litre and ask yourself where the money goes.
With a background in that industry around $0.80-$1 per 2 litre bottle is taken up by the bottle, cap, and label costs. Where I used to work we were pumping out 110 x 2 litre bottles a minute. Therefore around $3.36 per bottle in gross profit is soaked up between the grower and the person buying it. I can assure you about $2.50 of this is profit made by the supermarkets.
This is a common theme with nearly all agriculture if the grower isn't in charge of packing and marketing his/her own produce.
Anyway...

Not sure that my saws can handle the cutting speed of the chain, especially when the rakers are there only to stop the cutting edge being damaged from transport. :dizzy:

Any how I thought that with the attempt to get your name and filing ability out there amongst the cutters, you would let a poor harmless, less fortunate, benevelant bloke like me run one just to show case it for you and make you plenty of sales. You know, SUPPLY & DEMAND type stuff.:msp_biggrin:

I would send you one Dean but next thing I'd see is you starting your own thread in the racing section pawning it off as your own work. Probably even try selling it to Cahoon for $500. I mean it's worth it but...

lick,lick, grovel, grovel

note to Matt's personal assistant,,,
please tell master chingchain that running a chain backwards will push the chips back into the cut, so the chain will actualy ride up and out ot the block. I realise this advise will go on deaf ears, but its is important he shows the test vid on this point so others don't make the same mistake.
I have now withdrawn my offer to buy a loop, if they scare the builder, i'm not going near them ever....

like the stream ballon idea thou hard to find a creek that I can just let go with the IAC 12g lever,,, hey its Chinese as well

gee her shouders gonna need a rub

that chick would hardly move the next day after that lot. nice chick and a good vid. I think someone should stop her from fireing into the water at such a close angle before she gets some pellets back.

Don't be silly Neil. If you have your depth guages set properly on a backwards running chain they sweep the chips out that the cutter deposits. I thought you knew about chains?
Also as mentioned earlier my dog ate my camera so no videos.
I knew you'd pull out as you probably don't want to be shown up as a fraud in the chain building stakes.

Yeah she looked like she can handle the old shottie but it was beating her up a fair bit. If they were 3" magnum loads I might understand but she is probably only 50kg ringing wet. Normally most chicks you see with guns are 5 foot tall, 120kg, and have excessive facial hair...
 
I would send you one Dean but next thing I'd see is you starting your own thread in the racing section pawning it off as your own work. Probably even try selling it to Cahoon for $500. I mean it's worth it but...

Nah, I would never take ones idea and pose it off as my own. I know it has been done before and your probably scared, but if you put your copy right mark on the chain on the underside of the cutting edge, then how could I?

You have gotta trust me, I am liking more Chinese products the more I see of it. China will own the world before long. Then we will all have to "like long time" as we will owe them. :msp_wink:
