  1. Hello.. I need a cylinder and piston for a US spec MS460, are these the same as the UK version ?? And where would be the best place to buy ?? Or has anyone got some spares they want to sell - Don't have to be mint but usable?? Thanks for looking
  2. Well done mate!! Nothing wrong with just enjoying some work for a while and saving your money
  3. Pics?? Your call really mate, depends if you can live with it!!
  4. Looks like a nice days work!! Well captured Andy!
  5. Take the money and go home, or finish it until you're happy if you can
  6. Ha ha nice Dean!! Is that Bob making hand gestures back in the second pic??
  7. I would have said circular - but I haven't used a chainsaw version, and I agree it is important what you are cutting ie. contamination
  8. Not me mate, thanks - But I hope to see you there...
  9. What Hollands said - If he is prepared to behave like that over £75 then he must have some issues....Just make it clear that your life is too important to waste time on people like him. I agree with Shrek in principle but some people revel in this particular kind of dispute. You never know Mark you may get a call from someone like him who needs your help - in which case he can pay the difference for their petty attitudes.
  10. Pics??
  11. Not sure about the CE marks but the chinstrap isn't as far as AFAG recommendations go, unless they changed it recently...
  12. Nicely put together Reg! Inspirational stuff!
  13. Well done on fixing the site Steve! and the work you do which keeps it running seemingly faultlessly...
  14. Sounds like a good deal!! could donate some brash and more but the journey is a bit far... Good luck with getting that sorted - and hope you have a great time at the festival
  15. Nice work David!! Hope you found the thermal imaging useful? I love all the old reference photos, must be great to work somewhere with a documented past
  16. That burr elm is a fine piece of wood!! Nice work Matt
  17. That looks fantastic Pete!! Well done on the MOT always feels like an achievement...
  18. Nice!! We should be allowed to cover ourselves for unpredictability (Or F.ups) as it won't be the customer who is out of pocket due to circumstances unforeseen! I don't think they would be prepared to pay for full aerial visual inspections before each and every job.
  19. I have found that as I am learning - early on it was easy to be put off from just looking at things from the ground.. Can you put a give or take factor on the price? Ie. allow for the worst case scenario so you have some sort of cover in case things work out harder than they look? The times they are easier is a bonus and when it is harder you are covered. As mentioned cashflow is the key - ie. better to have lots of jobs with less profit than few jobs with bigger profit. Any days when your equipment is not working is a loss
  20. Good posts B101....eye opening and interesting. Sure you could make something of use with that frame David just beware the limitations as illustrated..
  21. This is something to definately keep a closer eye on!! Volcanic ash sounds like they very worst thing for a chainsaw
  22. I don't imagine them to be particularly toxic but you could wear gloves when pulling
  23. Blimey!! Looks like that was a close one...Before pics would be good some funny looking branch unions there - Was it inspected recently at all??
  24. Glad to hear you are on the mend mate, onwards and upwards!!
  25. ...
