  1. Does anyone sell pacific helmets in the UK?
  2. I hate tree poo. It's more usual to cut into a pocket of it whilst climbing, covering yourself in it
  3. We are having issues with the filter performance. Fine particles are working there way through it consistently & in sufficient volume to worry me about the longterm performance have worries about the saw as it's going to damage the piston. The only other person I have queried about this has seen the same issues. Who else has seen this?
  4. Tidy work Reg
  5. We run 341's on 15in & .325. They work very well, but depends on your usage to swap or not. If your cutting in the woods then the narrower kerf will be an advantage, otherwise not thatmuch difference. The 9 tooth sproket does increase chain speed quite a bit
  6. I found that it ran better with the french prussic & beeline. Did you try it? You have to keep the hitch very short
  7. Just curious, how many years you ran stihl & husky saws WoodEd?
  8. or buy a rope washing detergent..........?
  9. Nice shepherd Arborist
  10. load of carp. With a few exceptions any time of the year.
  11. If you don't have a spliced eye your knot attaching the krab will reduce strength by a half. Either way do your maths & it's all good
  12. I am sticking with the LJ as I am left handed. The SJ is not set up for me at all. Fascist right handed world!
  13. I have used 5 or 6 different ones & they all ran exceptionally well. Shame yours is poor as they are nice tool
  14. Nice. Like the folding tree you sneaked in there
  15. It's going to be near 6/700kg if you get a modern transit & put 3 people with kit in it
  16. Entertained! That was cool
  17. Employ common sense. Cut branch with saw & earn money
  18. The Hitch Hiker is the way forward if you want to go SRT. It is simple & effective
  19. Good job. Did you back it up with a couple of wedges? Be nasty if you popped a seal mid fell.
  20. Would be a cool day out
  21. To my knowledge the HSE can stop work with a climbing saw if the operator is not qualified (or suitably supervised) Surely for those who complain about unqualified competition this is a good thing?
  22. He only weighs about 55kg - keeps me looking slim
  23. Those dogs look like they were put on a boil wash & shrunk
  24. That's the replacement for those with a single figure IQ . Where stocks them, I'm gonna treat Andy Collins to some
  25. I never use the lever unless working single line. I use 10mm & it does function well
