All Activity

I believe in the best tools for the job, so get one that is suited to your needs. but for that we need to know what your needs are. What are you wanting to use the saw for? What is your experience with them, and do you have a preference to use petrol, electric or battery (all depends what you are going to use it for and where). Does your budget also have to include the relevant PPE, things like a chain sharpening kit and fuel cans as well, or is that on top of just the saw cost.

Well, this one was hilarious, "make a wish" Trump has been awarded a FIFA peace prize. You might ask what a FIFA peace prize is... it is a special award for really really big and brave presidents for being really really special. Or... it is FIFA understanding how cheap a bung needs to be to get what they want with the world cup in the US next summer. Award was created this year, never one before and apparently not even the board of FIFA knew of its existence either. Special brave boy, for being really really brave....

I have had mixed results with ex army coats. Had one that was mint for a couple of years, subsequent ones were all shite.

I must have missed some news?

Echo 310 , cheap and cheerful, basic, you could learn on it and with a 14" bar you could fell 28" diameter trees and 400 left over . Depends what you want to do with it and what you intend doing with it . Move on to a better saw after you've learned . I expect to be laughed , but hey, I started with a stihl 017

How dare you trivialise the nation's grief. Consider arbtalk cancelled.

I can still remember mum coming into my bedroom to tell me about Lady Di. She honestly made a bigger thing of it than when granny died.

Bonnie blue?

Raising a glass to the people’s princess tonight. Raise one with me or you’re a big meanie.

Yeah, you’re right, you weren’t being that word, lazy posting on my part.

Smashing sketch. I didn't think I was being facaetious btw. I was serious. There's an above average chance of somesuch silly shit occurring.

Ex Army Gortex. Swazi wearer's are poofs.

Ahh, that makes sense. Still think the game should have been played mind.

There was not a replacement medical team avaliable to take over aparently . Can't run the match with no medics .

You’re being facetious I know. However this modern fashion for marking and mourning and lamenting every single thing is ridiculous. It started with the death of Lady Di, since then the stiff upper lip has crumbled.

If you don't like that, I suspect you won't like the next game where the players kneel or throw black power salutes for him.

I've had the fuel filter off and checked the fuel line. All looks good. Makes no difference to running issue with a full tank or half a tank. I started it up today and ran it for a few minutes to take an inch of the christmas tree trunk and remove a few lower branches and no problem. Trouble is i'll start it next time and it will probably stall at idle.

No purge bulb on my saw. Thanks for the heads up on the check valve, I will rake a look.

Saw that. I cannot understand why they didn’t play the game tbh. 25 thousand people or so made the effort to get there, plus players and officials. Someone died in the stands, people die all the time. What purpose does abandoning the match serve?

Sadely the game was abandoned after 8 mins of play as a Charlton fan suffered a heart attack . He was treated at the sceine by para medics but susiquently died in hospital . Very sad .

I wait with interest 🙂

Mind you she was looking quite proud of herself as she wore the Silver medal my youngest son won today at a BJJ competition in Oslo. 😜

Will shortly be looking to get my first chainsaw, and am looking for some advice/suggestions. What’s gonna be the best bang for my buck at around £600, don’t have much experience with maintenance so not sure if used is a good idea

Hi Archie Really appreciate the message, unfortunately I’m based near Canterbury so would be a bit far for me. many thanks Kasper
