Rental of large saw (and maybe operator) - Potters Bar

[Moose McAlpine]

When are you doing it? I'm not far and i have two big saws with 36" bars.

I've got a 261, and would prefer to use my own stuff if I can........ but can maybe borrow a 461 which might have better options ?

I would certainly borrow the 461 rather than thrash the 261. 461 with 25" was my biggest saw until recently, have chunked up some sizeable lumps of willow with it - like woody said dice it from the end into blocks no bigger than 24" which you can pick up.

 

If you can get someone with you then better though, your back will appreciate it at the end of the day.

Looking at Wednesday / Thursday next week.

The customer is keeping almost all of the chip & timber - it's a big place.

They want the rings to, and have a site vehicle to put them on, so cutting some rings that are liftable 2-man and can be put onto a little piaggio backed right up close will be enough.

I'll give you a call in a bit mate.

 

Got Husky 3120XP and 395XP with 36" bars on both.

I think I've got it sorted.

 

I've managed to rent a 661 from someone (finalising and collect saw tonight).....hopefully it goes ahead.

 

Thank you all for your kind help, responses and offers.
