  1. Fiddle block, that was the only limb we could do like that, the rest had to lower off it's self with a extra pulley into the neighboring garden, it was just too long and heavy and the drag from the neighbors was about the same anyway.
  2. Example of pretensioned lowering line, it worked very nicely unlike a later one I didn't bother to pretension which smashed two brick buttresses off the neighbors wall. Tree is/was a Holm Oak and yes, it was raining.
  3. Carrs is my local dealer, if you want me to go in it would be no problem.
  4. I thought it was something to do with the picture size but must be wrong.
  5. I will take two, just charge it to Rollers account.
  6. I was using a 10 inch PTO chipper like yours last week on a site clearance job, it was excellent, shame it wasn't mine. Cost the owner 5k.
  7. Can we go on about how they talk funny?
  8. This is what I did to the exhaust on my 020t that really performs well, the exhaust is from a very early model 020t, I just opened it up a little and removed the internal baffling, it's pretty loud though and it pisses some people off. I am having trouble with this saw though, I think I need to replace the ignition pack, about the only thing I haven't changed.
  9. I have done exhaust mods on my two 020ts one absolutely rips the other seems pretty normal but it was a ex builders saw given as a freebie so may be a little tired.
  10. Chipping Sodbury?, who do you work for?
  11. Hang on! Smoking allowed, in a enclosed public place?? I am calling the law.
  12. Yeah, I think the heat from the saw affected the oil, the saw shop said it was because he had mixed his bio oil with mineral oil, which he hadn't, the Sthil, bio bar oil, which is more expensive, has no such problems.
  13. I don't know if it's a bad batch but my mate has been using this oil and it's blocked up most of his saws, he took them into the local saw shop and got them cleaned out only for the same thing to happen again. The oil had congealed into a jelly like substance in the tanks. I have just cleaned out one of his MS200t's today and it is very stubborn stuff to remove from the oil pump, I have also, this same week, cleaned out two of my other mates saws, Ms200 and a 044 with the same problem.
  14. Last Friday, nearly the end of the day, we got called out to this Split Ash tree. Sorry about the video being on it's side, that's Stu's fault as he was filming. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=qeRJXCsOojI http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ILbLUcBMUp8
