the 'todays job' thread

Nice job Mick, Like the idea of a big saw up the tree early instead of overworking the top handle. The weather looks a lot kinder for tree work with you than in most of the UK too?. What with the weather and the loader doing a lot of the heavy lifting I’m getting jealous. Thinking of getting one myself but unsure on wether wheeled or tracked, feel another thread coming?

Thanks, that was a 562, lovely saw.

 

 

Édit. The saw up in the crown is a 550, the topper had just run out of fuel with one cut to go, so I brought it up early.

Very nice mate?

Had the opportunity to use one of these last week and they do seem the ticket for maneuverability and speed?

I just need to grow a gut to increase lifting capacity ?

Sounds like you've got it sorted 

Would also recommend a cable for the revs throttle something like this?
