  1. Past hour
  2. They haven't proven it yet as the customer is the test base so until it's done a few years out in the domain they can't set it up. Onve it's done a few years then they can adjust the manufacturing process to make it work. Would you want to pay that sort of money to be a test subject?
  3. Port it and they come alive.... Cheaper yes but easy to make more power and then it's a super job
  4. Don't forget the marmite.... They are super tasty that way
  5. Morning all, About to toast the hot cross buns for late breakfast. Yummy.
  6. Meh... Off to work. Trying to gain some sort of order in commercial premises with the amount of rain is difficult to say yes ...
  7. Good morning all 👍 and happy holiday Friday 😊.
  8. We have been running the Stihl comms for nearly a year now. So far, in addition to the increase in safety, we have noticed a massive decrease in stress, due to the lack of shouting and misunderstanding. Increase in productivity and we have also been able to bring climbers on quicker, as we can quietly and calmly talk them through tasks outside there comfort zone, or simply give them helpful feedback. It is easy to become a gobshite and try and micro manage everything when running a site, however if I feel like I am, I simply turn the mic off and only reply to questions .
  9. Morning All, dark in this bedroom! Kit, Chins, Sink.
  10. Morning chaps dry here but still blowing
  11. Today
  12. My question is: Are there any spikes on the market that are good for very thin legs? Either with an adjustable leg cup thingy, or with additional pads for the leg thingy? TIA. Al.
  13. Have you found any decent info on how the grenadier tows?
  14. Morning , blue skys and frost here. Garden conny bashing for us today.
  15. Stihl comms all the way especially when working with machinery. Huge improvement in Safety but the one thing I didn’t think to consider is how much they’d Improve efficiency, which they have 10 fold.

  18. Morning Bob , morning all . Hope you all have a good day .
  19. Morning Fingers crossed for a decent day. Out in it, Looking forward to a rest tomorrow. Full week. Back at it Monday Have a safe one.
  20. I’ll post this question on a forum he frequents, might as well go to the source!
  21. The echo saws are a lot better than they used to be. Can you get the CS390sx?
  22. I presume that its the crank bearing that is shot and not the clutch bearing. If so I haven't seen or heard of any 500I's with that issue. Its going to be a costly repair but if the rest of the machine is OK then I think that its worth repairing it.
  23. Yesterday
  24. Vat reclaimable on the two seat van version but it isn't Tacho prepped and any work around will void the warranty! They should work well with proven undercarriage from BMW, ZF and Carrero and folk I know that have them, really rate them as a Disco type alternative. Crewcab falls down on not being able to carry enough..... I got told that they have a couple which have done 1,000,000 miles apiece with nowt but usual service wear/tear stuff. Only outfit that have put a right good warranty on - Ford commercial warranty is 60k miles agin theirs of 5 years and unlimited mileage.....
  25. I looked up the 4310 and it looks like it is a European market saw only. I'm in the US so that won't work. We have an Echo, I want to say it is about 50cc with an 18" bar. I will have to check and see what the model number is. It is relatively new - bought 2 years ago and only used a couple times. I don't particularly care for the saw. It does not have a fuel primer button. We did use it last weekend and I had to open the air filter to prime with gas straight in the carb to get it to go. Overall, I am not real sure what to make of Echo saws. Historically I would have never considered them. Someone else in the family bought the one we have and had heard good things about them. I had someone else say good things earlier this week about them. So I am more inclined to give them a chance. I suppose if people here on the forums are recommending them there is a reason. No matter what brand, I do know there is a difference between consumer grade and professional grade - and the price points show that. Looking at the US market Echo line-up - the CS-361 is 35.8cc and 8.4lbs. That sounds about right for what I was thinking on sizing. They spec it with a 14" and 16" bar.
