I just need to find one person who is pro active 

I'll email the officer next week and see if I get anywhere. If he wants to get in contact with you is the arbtalkmedia email address the best one to use?

 

I better log a couple of my saws first to see how it works!

Yes mate thank you.

And the police wonder why we have zero confidence in their ability to find or identify stolen stuff.

 

It's not exactly CID levels of common sense for a local officer to ring a local Stihl dealer and ask if there is a register.

I've just emailed our local rural crime officer about Arbsafe and looked through our police's rural crime pages and found this register:

 

https://www.secureassetregister.com/en-gb

 

This is their rural crime page: https://www.devon-cornwall.police.uk/support-and-guidance/your-community/rural-crime/

 

 

And this is their page for machinery theft: https://www.devon-cornwall.police.uk/support-and-guidance/your-community/rural-crime/farm-machinery-plant-and-vehicle-theft-plantprotection/

I've had a reply and I've forwarded it on to your email.

On a similar theme have a look at this video:

 

 

Are those Stihls at 3:04 clones though?

Yes.....all 5 of those in that line are Chinese clone shite. No wonder no one came forward to claim them. 😅

In that case they probably were not stolen 🙂

....or they were, but they were happy not to have them back.

More likely they were trying to pass them off as genuine at a car boot sale.
