  9. hand signals or even nodding when you want it pulling may be worth considering And don,t do anything that your not comfortable with life is too short There is always another day There is always another way There is always someone else
  10. if its your first saw and to do your assessments with i would think small maximum bar size 15 inch and either stihl or husqvarna would be my choice the lighter smaller saws are a lot easier for snedding and felling and do not cut as fast which is an advantage when getting used to them although it also depends on what you plan to do with it later upto 50cc or slightly bigger for further use imo
  11. thats really good wages sir if i was not too busy i would travel wish i could earn that local
  12. i have used a couple for tree jobs and to be honest it,s not a wood chipper stringy stuff came out and it did not like logs though it did like brash our grounds maintenance use them as they need to put all sorts through
  13. and i suppose they are not as noisy and do not damage your hearing
  14. if you think its worth porting a 200t why consider buying smaller cheaper with less power than a non ported 200t:thumbdown:

    its not always what something costs it,s what it can earn you how much would you get for 200t,s after 2 years hard work as against how many of them ama would you have gone through If your after saving money get em some silky saws save loads on price of saw no fuel and no oil
