Put it all back together today and worked first time.. must of just got water in somewhere it shouldn't. At least I have a good excuse not to trim hedges in torrential rain now...

Solo?

Why does that grease have a seal pic on tin but now you say it does not contain rendered clubbed seals that's false advertising!

Evening all. I am no electrician but for the love of me i cant seem to have the light cable for the chipper last more than a moth or so before coming apart internally and not working! The wires all end up ripping off from the connectors (where screwed in). This is on the truck end. The chipper end never comes off but that seems to be always loose and also creates a bad connection. added together its a real pain in the ass! Has anybody come up with a better solution? Anyone run the wireless ones? or any advice/ products that last? Many thanks

Nice work Jose. How did you split the bigger cord for the chipper? Surely you didn’t rip everything with saws?

It’s awesome wood, specially if you’re lucky enough to find dead standing timber

Is it that a chipper disc requires a lot of torque to get moving and some PTOs are too weak?

Any efco saw listed for sale in the uk will be very old stock. Efco ceased to be a brand in the uk well over 5 years ago. The sister brand ...oleo-mac are the only current products sold within the uk now, and as most efco and oleo-mac products were near identical, the parent company in a cost saving exercise couldnt see any good reason offering an identical product, just in a different coloured plastic in the same market. Therefore....avoid any 'brand new' efco products that are still for sale in the uk market unless you want at least a 5 year old saw before youve even used it! All manufacturing dates are clearly marked on a white sticker next to the serial number, so if in doubt ask the seller the year of manufacture. Just worth noting.

😂😂😂It’s not me trying to establish a link, did you read the article sailor boy. Or are you desperate for a Gotcha 😉 It would seem so 😂

So about the time that suddenly everyone had a computer in their pocket, rather than a communication device. I tend to agree, but you could say that IT was elite until the smartphone became afordable. Ie only those who could afford a PC or laptop and broadband at home were IT enabled. But of course the upside of this was that things were still available the old fashioned way. Banks were still a thing; the high street had a huge variety of shops, and you could phone ahead to see if they had what you need. Nowadays some things are just so easy to find - a quick google search, press a few buttons and within a day or two it arrives. On the other hand how frustrating is it when we are forced to do things via an app that doesn't work properly? And how sad that so much of life is just now about staring at a screen - social media is a whole rabbit hole of good and bad that we haven't even mentioned.

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

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

A Christmas treat usually! I'll have to try it with the sandwiches this week, depends if the ground is frozen over at lunchtime tomorrow maybe - I'll let you know what I think. Had to google that, yes brassica - also Wassabi which HR is often a cheap replacement

I’ve found the best way to keep costs down is to buy unseasoned wood in bulk and stack it yourself to dry. Also worth checking local tree surgeons, often they’re happy to drop off loads much cheaper than firewood suppliers. Mini Militia App Lock

Frankly, it shows how fragile the notion of "freedom of expression" in the United Kingdom has become. We may not agree with his words, but the idea that we can be arrested just for writing this is quite disturbing. Tutuapp

Hmm, this is a modern beat combo I'm not familiar with.

Never heard of them, but sub 12 I'd stick to air arms pellets as they're available practically anywhere and were always consistent and cheap. Most pellets are made in just 2-3 factories, H&N were making Bisley and a few others brands when you peeled the barcode label off the back.

Probably did! £20 labour soon disappears once you take the machine in, tag it up write out the quote and phone the customer, usually several times, never mind repairing the thing. Hopefully it will help someone in the future if they come accross the same issue and this thread.
