    shouldn't have but I spiked my way up to get a good anchor point and stand my ground that if anyone said anything - I'd have said FU - you didn't have to climb the ******! Also it is so high up the spike marks are invisible amongst the dappled bark. Sorry thought it was a joke.

    Broken a couple of 150t handles,they are light and effective to use but construction is poor. One thing I noticed is the price for a new part was about a third of the price than the first one that failed indicating its a common fault possibly.

    It's also the wrong time of year to prune any prunus species as they are a lot more susceptible to vascular wilt diseases. If he's butchered them they are most likely to grow back with great vigour and will need as said formative pruning in the future. It may be now you will see the best blossom ever in a few years if they recover. You need to definitely get some pictures up so we can see what's been done.

    I would want to see the mother hunting and how she is with kids if buying a terrier. My current terrier is mental like its mother and a hope less hunter but he is great with kids. But the dog in my avatar I knew the mother and grandmother and they were excellent hunters , she's great with kids and also won't kill animals if told not too but unfortunately she ended in the custody of my ex and I got the one she could not handle.

    The books a must read for any one involved in timber hey shavey! Some aspects of the film does do not give it credit like the wet oregon atmosphere kasey puts you in when reading the book.

    If you ever get the chance to watch "some times a great notion" or never give an inch as it was released under both these names it has some great old growth 70's logging scenes and plenty of Mac action [ame] [/ame] This bit is a classic in the film staring a Mac [ame] [/ame]

    L200 Servicing

    MattyF replied to jjll's topic in Arb-Trucks

    One of our l200's just let its turbo go at 80k there was a few faults that no garage apart from mitsubushi could diagnose and said would of been brought up if we had taken to them for servicing... But it is expensive, not as expensive as a new turbo or engine though!

    If your cutting all day ,go for a oregon pro lite but a Sugi if you want a bar that will last a life time and the little bit of extra weight and cumbersomeness does not bother you.

    Some dirty rotten Sitka butts to remind you of the good times shavey. I don't mind clear felling but Sitka thinning for continuous cover you start to feel the will to live edge over as another hangs up.

    Magnets for the files and clip in combi spanner are its best features , how many times have you ran out of fuel at the end of the day and had them all slide out every where it kinda makes you think why they bothered putting the holes in for them in the first place.
