I just noticed that even Stihl isn't listed on there

just a 12" chain and one of their bars on am ms201t at the moment. I think its full chisel, haven't looked all that closely actually.

Yes Joe, only for a couple of smallish trees though. I will post my thoughts when I have used it for a few weeks, but first impressions it seems to cut absolutely fine.

Brand New High Quality Low Cost Chainsaw Chain Exclusive To Northern Arb Supplies Chainsaw chain manufacturing has been a black art for many years and only the well-known chainsaw manufacturers have managed to produce a chain that performs well, wears consistently and retains its integrity at the high end of the market…..That is until now!! Development in different steels from America’s elite chainsaw engineers has now produced a chain that will stand up to the quality our Arborists demand and at a fraction of the cost. Piranha™ Chainsaw Chain has recently been launched and is only available at Northern Arb Supplies. Piranha™ Chains are a low cost high quality replacement chain, designed to compete with the bigger more expensive brands on the market. In some cases around 66% cheaper than a well known brands equivalent. With Piranha™ MS201T 12” chain costing only £5.50 and a Guide Bar for the same saw costing only £14.99 it’s hard to ignore the savings that come with switching to Piranha™. We have done competitor research and on average a Piranha™ equivalent chain is one third of the price of the leading brand but still has the quality to back this saving up. Testimonials: Jack From Ridgwick Tree Services Says “You can’t ignore the fact that these chains are far cheaper than other chains. They save me a fortune and perform better than you would expect for such a low cost chain” John From The Tree Man Says “When I first tried these chains they were much better than expected, They stay sharp and are excellent value for money” Bill From WTL Fencing Says “I have a team of 20 running Piranha Chains. To be honest I don’t know why I ever paid for more expensive chains when we are throwing them away so often” For more information on Piranha™ Chainsaw Chain please give one of our team a call on 0114 2789090 www.piranahachains.co.uk

dismantling is the only way

Speaking for myself, I'm not intelligent enough to understand half of it and therefore don't comment, but enjoy reading it all the same, keep it up

Just saw this on facebook of upstate NY

Yep that will do it

Ahh...fixed this for you. If you scroll to the very bottom of this page you have options to exclude forums from your view. You had excluded the picture forum by accident somehow. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/profile.php?do=editoptions

had a few slip ups unfortunately. Now off work for a week with the kids, and I never smoke around them so that makes stopping far easier.

Thanks for that

Well thats a bit odd isn't it! I can't replicate this at all

Yes it should and does

Much like tree surgeons shopping round to get the cheapest possible deal they can for their equipment

This is simply a case of someone misunderstanding what they have been told and then going off preaching their own version as gospel

Re metal in metal. Where possible you should use aluminium with aluminium, steel with steel, but not mix the 2. Other than that there's nothing wrong with your set up at all in my opinion. The soft link is for rescue and is entirely redundant if you're using a rope lanyard

it hasn't gone anywhere, same place as always

Please list them on arbsafe Rod http://www.arbsafe.co.uk

undoubtedly. A days climbing used to kill me when I first started.

Ground work is harder than climbing IMO

around our way? I thought betting odds were national

but did you get your bet in before they slashed it to 2/1?

Thank you It hasn't always been easy keeping things on an even keel but thankfully we have a great group of members for the most part who understand and appreciate the reasons for guidelines. You only have to spend a few minutes on the various facebook sites to see the reasons for this.

good luck!

https://uk.news.yahoo.com/dreaming-white-christmas-britain-set-080323296.html#T5lAUCt Taken from Yahoo news: Every year Brits hope for a bit of snow on Christmas Day to make the festive season complete, but we’re usually left with a bit of drizzle and grey skies. However, it looks like we may be able to play in the snow after opening our presents as the odds of a White Christmas have just been slashed. Bookies have now cut the odds from 5/1 to 2/1 that an ice cold wintry festive season will happen - and it’s all thanks to the strongest EVER El Nino. With temperatures rising in the Pacific Ocean, the knock-on effect in Britain and the rest of Europe is months of sub-zero temperatures and snow. The last time El Nino hit six years ago saw the country suffer three months of ice and snow on the roads, closing school and making travelling perilous. And this December we could see lows of around -16C, which could put an ice cold dampener on festive getaways. Met Office weather forecaster Tomasz Schafernaker told The Express: “This time round El Nino could be the strongest in decades. “In Europe sometimes winters end up much colder and drier and last much into spring. In 2010 the El Nino played a part in bringing huge amounts of snow to the UK.” As well as the El Nino effect, the melting of Greenland’s ice sheet will further add to the big freeze, slowing down the Gulf Stream that pushes in warm currents from America. James Madden from Exacta Weather said that there will be “some snow to much lower levels of the country” before December as a result of the “non-existent Gulf Stream”. AccuWeather meteorologist Tyler Roys added: “We’ll see full-on cold spells. “Northern England faces colder-than-normal periods, some of which could affect southern England, and Scotland is forecast a colder than normal winter. “Given recent past winters’ minimum temperatures of -8C to -21C, lows of that level are possible this winter.”
