  1. Type green log weight into App Store Bartletts have 1 that's free and generally ok Ps Jon don't thank me or pm haha
  2. Woman at work got knocked down by a chap on a push bike and his home insurance has paid out so I am told
  3. Buy the house See how you go with the tree for a yr Poss prune and see if that's better If not remove it. Ideally check if it's protected and you can either do that online if your council has that facility Or ring them up and ask But I would doubt any structural damage will be caused unless on bad desiccated clay and insurance will cover that. I would guess mortgage company will want a report done? Anyhow prior to lending on the property

    Big shot Tips

    Ideally you want 8ft total I preference 2-4ft ones just for ease of storage and transporting. Just get one and have a go and you won't look back Main prob is how far to pull down so it does not go too far Ps throw bag and line opposite side to your body ie between big shot and the tree
  11. But 99 percent of us are not forestry or ag So none of you sell woodchip or logs IMO and that or our company you do need it if you are paid whilst driving that vehicle and it's over 3500kg 8 hrs a yr Sadly leave it till the last yr and it's a full week
  12. Are you not covered under your home insurance It often covers sports such as cycling canoeing ect
  13. Yes you do
  14. Do they not just need to register the serial no against a person I am aware they can get ground of but can they not tuck another serial no away on the fuel tank that if ground would knacker the saw. Ideally also only be able to buy parts if saw is registered to you I know I could ring up with a genuine saw number to order parts but at least a deterant
  15. Sorry no
  16. I would hate to have to use a gravity fed again But suppose that's after been spoilt using roller fed What budget are you working to or is a space issue for storage
  17. Just put wine corks on your normal spikes Works so well your mates will be smiling all day Go on give it a go
  18. Though tbh 5 years is the norm
  19. Seems a lot for 1 day Wonder how many to fill the room
  20. Tbh we would probably just put it through the chipper unless I found someone to give it to for them to make something out of. Hate seeing good turning wood burnt but as most turners do it as a hobby then I usually just give it them..
  21. If you saw it up seal the ends dry it out for a few years without it splitting and then find a turner to sell it to its maybe worth more
  22. Not as yet dean Tbh my 201 is one of the better ones it seems as I like mine Not buying a husky till it's been out at least 6 months and they have got round to sorting all the problems. Though every other saw is now orange
  23. I do try to buy local if realist prices Certainly helps with after sales service But tbh husky have upped there game and better value for money IMO
  24. Sounds more like a bag of logs so £4
  25. They are good as book ends
