Got to admit, back in the day of my treework, I had got to the point of never considering a 3500 truck! Cannot carry enough legally and it was a worry as the employer! Transits etc can carry bugger all!

Well, yea. But I don't know anyone locally who uses over 3500. Even the big arb contactor for utilities have 3500 transits and sprinters. But I agree. Just keep under 4500 and it's a fine I guess 😂🤷🏼‍♂️

Funny story... So my mill arrived and I assembled that etc. I need to get a 36" bar because the 41 is rediculous but if I use it then it's a "second hand" one as opposed to factory fresh! 

 

On an annoying note, I bent the E clip when took the clutch off to lubricate the needle bearing which was dry 🤦🏼 I bent it back but I have some new ones coming from l&s! 

 

Hopefully have it in the wood next week!

What is the issue with the 41 bar then.I use a 36 GB milling bar.
