  3. OK, lighting blue touchpaper and retiring: I went into a local branch of my regular suppliers, and asked for 5l of Synth plus. They only had Forest Plus in 5l. Was I right to walk out without purchasing any? It's not urgent, I just happened to be passing. I subscribe to the doctrine of " if it ain't broke, don't fix it ", and Synth Plus has worked well for me. Sorry for re-igniting the debate.

    Makita DUC150

    The Fakita appears good, it does have a proper oiler and reasonably sized brushless motor. It is a 1/4" chain. I like the mini narrow bars. 1.5kg without battery, 2.1kg with Makita battery.
  5. They take a fair amount of space and are heavy to move, also needing power or compressed air. Wouldnt have been practical for me, I have extremely limited space.

  7. Muddy and Mick (and indeed several other people now I re-read) are onto something I think. Have an expert do the precision work and buy a backhoe for the rest of it? Or do it all with the backhoe if you have the patience. Forget bog work obviously.

  12. Alright all. I'm pretty new to carving, over the past few years I've done a handful of pieces mainly just because I like doing it. I've never really tried to sell my work but I would like to start. I've not invested loads of money in it, still just playing with a stock bar and die grinder with a couple of different burrs but it'd be nice to recover some of my fuel costs if poss. My question is, those of you who do sell your work, how and where do you do it? Is it better to carve up things in advance on the hope people might buy them or do you mainly get commissions? I've stuck on some photos to give you an idea of where I'm at with it. Thanks in advance. WhatsApp Vidéo 2025-09-01 à 13.29.23_6efc7c2a.mp4
  13. Yes. 3/8" is the pitch wheras the 0.050 and 0.043 are the gauge. The width of the rail on the chainsaw bar will determine the gauge of the chain and the pitch needs to be the same as the nose and the drive sprocket.

  14. How are you all getting these slabs to dry flat? I don't even bother slabbing now because anything that has the pith in turns into an Escher painting after a few months on the stack.

  16. Hi Dan It does make a difference, that's why we asked. We are trying to only post on a Friday, with whatever we are promoting on our socials and emails. I do notice that when we update the classifieds, they all pop up in the unread posts. As these run out after 2 weeks, I've started to try to spread them out so it's not too much at once. I can't control this as it's an Arbtalk thing. Pricing-wise, we should always be cheaper as we are only there to move on end-of-line products or out-of-packaging products. We will have a think and discussion on how to be more engaging in our content - any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you for your feedback, it is valuable to us as it should be for any business.
  17. I would think the oil bath air filter would be a no no due to you needing to use the grinder on slopes etc. Have a look at the Chinese Honda copies for a replacement (Lifan etc). About half the price, electric start versions available. Obviously check crankshaft length/diameter before ordering. The foam sleeve that goes over the paper air filter element is an important part of the set up if working in dusty environment. It needs to be dipped in clean oil and squeezed out at regular intervals after washing out in petrol to catch any dust etc. before reaching the paper filter.

  24. What’s the chain speed Steve? Is there a chain shot/safety zone issue or can it be used within sensible distances of 3rd parties?
