50 cc saw (stihl ms261) and 13 inch bar for most f the work I do - storm clearance. 70cc for felling larger trees, logging or when I get the first saw stuck! 120cc for blocking up "unsplittable" logs on the ground

Snapping one word and spouting shite is not what I meant by try harder. You a bit insecure ?? So the “ right Data” ??? 😂😂

Used to be Spud but he is retired, now its Crocky . I have saws ported by both . All good .

Similar to Andrew doing an interview?

Morning all, colder here now. It was zero yesterday and it’s to get down to -10 this week with snow. I bought a PTO Jensen. Trying to reduce manual chipping so this should help.

"Do this for a living"? nope ,surely not. Just cutting logs ocassionally for firewood. Sometimes someone asks me to cut a few trees that bothers him. I ended up on this forum after getting about 4 cubic meters of oak logs, for firewood about 21-22 months ago. Was baffled by how "stubborn" was to cut by chainsaw yet easy to split by axe. Was a decision of moment because usually I buy beech or hornbeam. Wich I know what's it about and how long it takes to dry/season. Then I found out from some individuals that I might wait 3-5 years for this oak to season 🤔😱 Of course I got even more curios and baffled WTF 3-5 years are they talking about... If after 2 years this oak doesn't burns right like beech and hornbeam have done past winters I'm done with oak as firewood! but anyway, big chainsaws are good for hardwood if you're in a hurry 😁

+1 I do feel there was a technology sweet spot around 2005. A lot of "advances" since have been purely for commercial gain rather then customer need or desire.

I did you moron. You wouldn't recognise them if they shook your hand and introduced themselves. Don't have one, don't need one, come on join in with the 21st C. OK, one more time, how can you use covid deaths in data that is supposed to support excess deaths due to the covid vaccine?

Agreed. It seems the educational establishment have no idea how to tell how much work is down to a student and how much is AI. Perhaps a solution to this might be for universities to actually return to exam based assessments!

Agriculture gave us leisure time. But also huge famines, huge wars, slavery, obesity, genocide etc. I am not sure many people would want to return to hunting and gathering however!

So as someone who doesn’t suffer from TDS or Leftarditis why is Trump calling for the release of the Epstein files ??. Now I’m not defending or accusing anyone here but surely if according to SP in particular and the other TDS sufferers he’s the spawn of the devil and the worlds worst sexual predator he would not be wanting anything that would incriminate him released !!. I know you Leftards “ get it” but something doesn’t add up here.

Good morning. Bit of an edge to it out there. Off to Farnborough for second phase works. Have a splendid start to the week.

A sharp chain beats more power all day long . As above . The smallest , lightest that will do the job every time .

Looks like a dry day ahead, the temperatures are due to plummet this week. A straight forward Oak dismantle with a bit of rigging out before felling. All log and chip staying on site. 👍

390 should be on .375 ( 3/8ths ) not .325 . Bar length 20,24,28 seems good . I have a Spud ported one .

My 90cc comes out of the workshop about twice a year. I use the smallest, lightest saw that will effectively do the job, 80% of what I do on the ground is done with a 550xpg (50cc) the rest 572xpg (70cc), you clearly don’t do this job for a living.

Mornin’ Stubs et al. Dryish week ahead, another lime re pollard, lad (up and coming climber) would be miffed if he’s not allowed to do it, so I’m picking up sticks all day.
