Fairly sure it's the standard 3/8. Its little sister, the amazing 261 is running on 3/8, as is my MSA 300. I know there's a trend to fit smaller gauge chains, usually on the smaller saws.

Hush now, he is only knarky that this government has gone behind the Brexiteers backs and actually talked nice to the EU, and the French

On the rare occasion I was forced into railway stuff cos I had no other work, the ability to roll a decent joint was always considered a desirable skill. I know guys who do it, I know they wouldn’t be doing it for the minimum wage that’s for sure.

Are these trees passed the point of savings?
Steven P replied to Thunderpies's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
What is brown probably won't grow back again satisfactorily if at all, if that helps you. (Your neighbour might like you a bit more too if they are replaced with something more manageable, kept to fence height unless you want privacy from the overlooking window) -

Brother broke his shooting stick Made a new stick from elm but it was too bendy so made this one out of ash. Tested my sowing skills on the leather

The unloading was really no bother. The loading is what killed me. It probably wouldn't have fitted on a tipper without massive greedy boards, which a luton in effect has. Character building stuff.

A good sharp hand saw, for light reductions. when I’m using a chainsaw, I tend to cut off more then I should. to each his own

I've heard the advice that you shouldn't be selling this job; you should be selling the ten after that. Which does sound good but is quite open ended.

Ballistol Universal Oil And not poisonous for cleaning really dirty carabiners I’ve been using a Oral irrigator. i don’t have a air compressor.

I think the idea of using an impact driver as a way of managing the reaction torque is novel. To me it does have the whiff of snake oil about it, if you could suddenly increase cutting tool performance and life by a factor of two then people like Dormer and Sandvik would be all over it. After all cutting tools have been thought about a lot, by a lot of people. I suspect they are twice as good as cheap tat, and more equivalent to the decent ones that few people buy.

That could be a lovely gaff, if/when I settle in a pile of bricks it will be in Suffolk, or the Staffordshire Moorlands/Peak District

Anyone use pick up trucks for small/medium tree and hedge jobs?
nepia replied to Lou Brown's topic in Arb-Trucks
I've used Navara Kingcabs for 18 years. You can add a trailer to carry more and/or make up some greedy boards. Do you have a tripod ladder? If so you can use it to hold down several dumpy bags of arisings; stand on the ladder to press the dumpy bags down and to get the front feet down into the back of the buck against the tailgate and strap the thin end to the ladder rack behind the cab (you need one of those to put mesh onto to protect the rear screen). All sounds a bit niche but it's how I've done small tree and hedge work for all that time (with the trailer bit).
