  1. I like the idea of the hydraulic circular saw, the posch processors down fall is belt maintenance on the saw blade. It's not bad I guess you would tighten it weekly if doing 50 tonnes. So you weekly change the bar on the tafjun if doing max production ? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  2. Posch 280, most of are wood is soft and fits the machine perfectly.. we did look at the tafjun and the 360 seriously this year with the view of upgrading but a new tractor is taking priority over a processor. The 400 did look a good machine though and it would win in dealer support ,Seriously 50 tonnes per bar? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  3. 50 tonnes?!! I would not even look at it! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  4. My never blew out ,it just kept bending... But I would just re straighten it, was getting to soft though do replaced it. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  5. The bar looks bent ?? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  6. You are putting the strop on the silver ring not on the plastic fella ? You will loose your saw other wise!! I'm still on the original but then I will always clip the saw back up and have only dropped it on the strop a handful of times. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  7. Using the same crates as Kevin , strong and light , also make good fuel container carriers with all the fuel spill kits two cans and spare two stroke. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  8. What model is the valtra ? My life needs a day glow green timber grab... Very envious. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  9. Owned a few until the valves popped , one was a bag of poo from the start with carb and fuel issues and the 4 stroke thing produces far to much torque for the shafts and gear boxes creating other problems... Would never buy another. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  10. You know its your favourite subject !! .. The 540 experience thrown you mate?? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  11. Looks like some one picked up a Victorian tree pruning book and put in to practise ? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  12. Ahh but they are not perfectly engineered !! See the photos in the square ground filling thread of new chain, round filled new chain is exactly the same I have found , big flat spots that can be drastically improved with little effort. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  13. 15" 3/8 is what I run. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  14. I want one the 460's we use on 24" bars are dogs , my 560's quicker! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  15. I would talk to stihl technical directly on Tuesday , then I would never set foot in there again! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  16. Yes and that was a reply after your first comment that had nothing at all to do with answering a question just laughing at it .... Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  17. It sure is I don't or didn't read in to the opening post as some one trying to get his views across... Any way life's to short , it's the weekend and I'm missing bits of my film replying to this !! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  18. On his right to wear what boots he wants then try and tear down and insult what some one believes ... Sorry mate he asked a question if you can't contribute any thing worth while to it I don't see the point in replying to thread. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  19. Wow the guy only asked if any one made vegan boots! I don't think it was any moral high ground that's his belief .. It should be respected and instead got nearly two pages of piss taking. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  20. Does the p3000 have rubber inserts for pruning or rigging off other trees? Those spikes don't look like they will be healthy if they don't! I don't regret buying the 3001 , honeys and gustarts have them on offer as well as the moment. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  21. That's the larch I think nick, got plenty of splinters from that!! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  22. Nice one rover I knew I had seen some and didn't imagine it!! Will be interested to hear how you get on with them mark. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  23. That was the timber you used for the project from the FC nick , do you have an idea of age from being felled as I think its probably younger than I estimated... Glad its some use and your more than welcome to use the mill when you need some more mate. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  24. Saw logs had been felled 3 -4 years previous and was dry and light when cut so it went straight up.. Some of the larch and pine cladding was wet but that has not moved at all. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
  25. Thanks , band saw effort definitely! Still very new to band saw milling so that was a big learning curve spent plenty of time on an Alaskan though so had a rough idea of what to do. Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk
