I'm getting a copy tomorrow, if I knew with student discount it was that cheap I probably would have bought it by now though, still, free > £119

Don't call it Tuck magazine, it'll only encourage them.

Journal Despite the fairly gay name, they sound like an awesomer version of Dillinger Escape Plan. Win all round.

I'm sure your tattoo artist will be better at drawing the swallows than any random knobber on trials forum.

I was gonna stop at 8, I'm now at 28mm. Go team self restraint.

Hinge is in the middle brown bear. Ring me Thursday or something and we'll party like its 1999.

To give you an idea of tattoo cost, so far, I've been in a tattoo chair for over 24 hours and spent over £1500 so far on my sleeve, it's pretty much done now except the top of my inner bicep. If you really insist on getting that atrocity, expect it to run into the thousands, and also expect the tattooist to laugh when you give him the idea.

That's irrelevant, I use a Macbook Pro as it is. Down with PC's!

Any fans of Neutral Milk Hotel?

Send me a copy so I can stop using Logic Express

You spelt Cardiff wrong.

Problem being, the use of tf tape measure in everything, nothing's really controlled and everyone makes huge claims.

Right, my guide to changing strings and setting up a floyd (based on an Ibanez version, but the high end Ibanez version, not a shitto one). Insert string through the tuner of the guitar (aka, backwards) Pull the string down to the bridge, and cut it off about an inch or two longer than it needs to be Insert the freshly cut string end into to the gap for the string, and tighten it with a 4mm allen key Repeat for the next 5 strings Put the tremolo bar into the hole, and push it down until the bridge is level with the body roughly, then tighten up all the strings at the tuners until they have decent tension THIS IS THE IMPORTANT BIT, PAY ATTENTION EVERYONE WHO CAN'T GET THESE IN TUNE, Because they are a floating bridge, floating between the tension of your strings and the tension of the springs at the back, when you tighten up one side, the other side get loosened. So when you tune it EADGBe, by the time you've got to the last string, you've truly knocked the first completely out of tune. Instead, tune outwards and work inwards, tune E, e, A, B, D, G Once you've done that, you'll notice they are all out of tune again, yet slightly closer to being in tune than before, repeat the process until they are all in tune and stay there. This you'll only have to do once, unless you change your tuning or string guage. If now your bridge isn't level with the body, tighten the screws above the springs in the back to bring it down, and loosen them to bring it up. Do this until the bridge sits flat with the body. Once it is flat, chances are it won't be in tune again, so retune up, then recheck the bridge level etc until its in tune, and level with the body Tighten up the lock nuts on the neck, then use the fine adjusters on the bridge if anything is still slightly out. Now your guitar will stay in tune until you change the strings, and because the spring tension is now setup, you won't ever have to adjust it again

http://www.canonfd.com/mirrorlenses/pages/page10.html Canon 5200mm anyone? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/find/newsLet...ll-L-Lenses.jsp B&H in America were selling a Canon 1200 f/5.6, one of only 20 in the world, for a princely sum of $99,000. It appears to have gone now though. http://blogs.reuters.com/wp-content/upload...7/picture_3.jpg 1200-1700 f/5.6 for Nikon users (Yes I know its a Canon camera, it's been converted.)

Because Allen keys are such a rarity in modern day life, especially to people who ride bikes.
-
People who say they are crap blah blah blah only say that because they are idiots and can't work out how to use them. They can be a fantastic tool not only for playing, but also because they stay in tune for weeks on end once you get it sorted. Actually tell me what you want to know, in this thread, and I will help you.

Wait until 2009/2010, you'll be saying how amazing 08 Echo rims are.
-
Same applies with the Python 04 then.
-
Ah fair enough, I thought I remembered them not being too much of a hit. Its ridiculous though, everyone wants what they can't get, especially you Danny Kearns.

Unfortunately, its got that TF virus that whenever something becomes discontinued, it turns amazing. Whenever they are available, everyone thinks there shit. For example: Hansventure tyres - Everyone said they were shit and everyone stuck with high rollers. Echo Super trial tyres - Everyone said they wouldn't grip and pinched too easy Old Monty tyres - Everyone said they didn't grip Zoo Python 2004 - No-one went that crazy over them, now they are discontinued everyone says they were the best frame ever Zoo 04 bars - See above Last years Echo rims, every year - Every year Echo brings out new rims, people say they are shit, and the previous years rims were amazing, then the next year, the same thing happens Zoo pads - Everyone said they were waaay too soft and wore out in a week, now they are selling for stupid prices on Ebay The list goes on, I've forgotten loads. As soon as something gets discontinued, everyone spuff's over it, despite calling it shit when it was available. The best thing any company can do to increase sales is to discontinue something.

Female hyena's have a fused shut vagina and instead have an incredibly large penis like clitorus.

Rowan is right, thats exactly how it happens, the axles aren't designed for trials, and they flex and the harder metal of the ratchet notches into the softer metal of the freehub body. It doesn't really affect anything, until if you leave it and they get really bad, your hub will engage when freewheeling, where the notches are catching on the rachet, when that happens file them all off and they are fine again. Happened millions of times to me.
