He will still have to pay a sellers fee even if you don't get your item .. Does not really help you out though.

Leather bottoms over the Velcro defiantly !

As it has pretty much the worse hearing rating of any lid on the market so won't be able to hear any one taking the pish when your deaf any how. 😆

Forestry is it worth doing?
MattyF replied to elfinwood saws's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Egger and park end will usually buy all the softwood they can take? -
This ! I have 15" Oregon and Sugi on my pair of 560's and would pick the Oregon up every time ....it's lighter and the saw handles better ,If you were using it for Arb work you would not notice the difference probably but all day usage on say snedding out Sitka you certainly do notice.

Is it true black poplar or the hybrid ? True black poplar is very rare now also it has some stunning Ray's when Milled. Hybrid though is brittle junk only good for matches in my opinion and most of the stuff especially down south seems riddled with hornet moth any way and I imagine that would definitely be the case if your tree is wind blow ...We have given arctics away at £100 or less a load just to get rid of it.

Things to do on Holiday ( North England / South Scotland )
MattyF replied to Darrin Turnbull's topic in The Lounge
Cheers Darrin I've got a copy of that now. -
To be fair too the saw it does not look a particularly bad design or filter , I find any saw will let fine dust through no matter what , you can get HD kits for the stihls but in my experience of them they sap as much power as having a dirty filter and I've never seen a ms460 for example go pop either despite the fact they seem to suck in more dust than I've ever seen on a saw !
-
If your milling I would expect to clean the filter a lot more any way .. I would possibly do mine 2-3 times a day if going flat out.

Spinners work well on the Allen so I'm told last time I worked on the banks there ,I would of loved to of had a go with either though! Did loose a nice sea trout on the north Tyne on a fly last week though. -

Yep getting eaten as I type !! Cragside .... Does any body have a location for the UK's tallest Scott's pine there ? I would spend a good deal of time sitting on Allen-mouth beach Darrin or in the river mouth casting at sea trout! -
To be honest I think they are one of the most unhelpful companies I've ever dealt with when it came to making a large claim they dragged it out for as long as they possibly could and made the whole situation even more stressful. 1 out of 10 from me.

Nice work tim , good to hear the 560 singing with some great cutting .
-
I work a lot with my dad who is a serious workaholic, he's just come in from being out starting at 7am on a firewood processor , I really don't know how he keeps going but I do really enjoy climbing or cutting for him and the team work involved is probably better than most of the crews I've worked in and for.

Good to know mate 👍🏻
-
John I've had a look in my 550 spares box ...a few pics one side is a bit marked .... Pm your addy though if you still want it. Cheers mat.
-
I've built a few now and they are dead easy with decent elastic....the best one was with a foot loop rich made but I do prefer the velox system with 4srts floop over any thing else it just seems more compact and less difficult to snag.
-
I have a genuine husky ring I think to go with it as well, I was going to fit but realised when I tried to salvage a cylinder the top of the exhaust port was to damaged and snapped a ring and would keep snapping them so replaced the whole lot oem husky kit.
-
Lil red barn do one ... Buy a genuine husky ring though. I have a used aftermarket one in the shed if you send me the postage.
-
I would just buy the haas velox , have used quite a few different knee ascenders and had the ordinal haas the velox is so sweet , no flat spots just very smooth ascent.
-
Andrew do you know the ral for dolmar orange ? Also please pm me what I owe you and how to pay for that coil please mate !
-
Sounds a familiar story .
-
Sorry did not get that first off mate... I know what I would like to do , but is it worth the grief ...definitely one for rouge traders though.
