Do you have a forwarding triailer ? You could keep it simple then and carefully lift logs on to a basic mill, and possibly turn heavy wood when needed although I've never had to do that, just put up the dogs and roll with a Kant hook.

I believe from memory they are identical apart , you can buy a combi tool unbolt from the kombi shaft like I've done with a hedge cutter in utter desperation to finish a job and it fitted straight on a Hl 75... I was advised by a Stihl dealer once though not to buy a combi system as it would be weak ,unfortunately I didn't listen and quite a few problems with shafts especially on hedge cutters and the blower attachment.
-
No bother mate , looking forward to see some work pics.
-
If you just brought the non combi head it will go strait on I used to alternate on a hl75 with pole saw hedge cutter and strimmer.

Indeed very versatile knot used it for pulling stumps and trees , I can't tie a Clove hitch though:(

Gustharts for Stihl and I've seen carving bars for husky's in Dixons in Hexham so both could sell you a ready to go out the box saw for carving depending on your preferred brand

Very true your not paying for a flashy name , it's durability and comfort I sure notice the difference in between the 100 quid trouser I use for really sticky pine and working in pfanner arborists or sips

Thing that annoys me is lads playing rugby and not coming in Monday because they have broken stuff , when they are self employed they have to come in and slow every one down... Just a thought but I would not pay some one on full pay for what I can best describe as self inflicted injuries although I would and have helped them out I just think it's irresponsible to partake in such things if your work and a team relied on you ... Rant over

Get a 461 then on a 25" if you were a fan of the 460.. I run a 24" on my 576xp no bother though.

This happens more than you think , I don't think people's common sense will ever cease to amaze me.

I've got an old Norwood that does the job , this looks like a rolls Royce in comparison ! Would love to retro fit those dogs.

There I was hoping this thread had died...

I had to take mine off for other reasons like making it easy to identify which ones which ! ....I must be a bit special as I filled up 3 saws with oil in a few weeks some thing I've never done with the stihl can. -
You need a Portawrap ??
-
They are not as good as the faltimer but at a third you can't go wrong the price they are my second choice for storing line, definitely worth it although they are tricky to open.. I have to stand on the corners of mine and twist out unlike the faltimer that you just flick out holding the top and it opens out.
-
Depends on how much you use it
-
Yale xtc or Samson arbormaster would be my choices.
-
Pfanner are the most comfy.. worth the money when you consider how much time is spent in them and I like the tick guards.

Sorry mate, done a deal already.

Ok joe , I'd floss and flo that mofo and have her down by 1 judging from the last pic .... From the first pic you would possibly stepping off your spikes from the stem in agony after disking down with the 88 at around 5pm leaving an almighty pile of shite to clear up over the next week.... It does look a day for three people's is my final answer but I'd price it at a day and a half just incase the wind makes rigging and clearing up a nightmare.

I'd stunt fell it through the gap and be away in an hour with a tractor load of timber and tranny of chip ... Seriously it looks a different tree from every photo and I would never quote by photos so it's pointless entering this discussion really.
