Darrin Turnbull

I have to ask - WHYYYYYYYYY?

Maybe the owner wanted his trees to look like his poodles

I don'nt think a tree thinned like this will survive .

Twenty meters high with only a carrier bag full of needles.

I'm going back to my two in one throw line again.

I bought some Stein throw line 1.8mm . The first two weeks perfect . But after the coating wears off. Such a pita.

Maybe stihl is hiding something , i can'nt find anything on the German web sites.

How big are those Darin?

Looks bonsai but fair play for target pruning and nice they didn't just cut them in half.

These trees are normal Scots pines 20 meters high with about 60 % thining.

Here's a street view picture from a while back.

Here's a closer look

Yes , scots pine.

Here's some more pictures.

Saw this on my travels today.

step 1: rinse washer detergent draw with very hot water to remove any detergent residue

step 2: put EMPTY washer on a hot/ hot rinse cycle to wash detergent away

step 3 : tie 2 ends of rope together and flake loose rope directly into machine

srep 3 : place nickwax tech wash or other rope specific cleaner (eg beal) in draw

step 4 : programe long cool (max 40) wash

step 5 : if desired add rope water-proofer (eg nikwax rope proof) to draw and re-wash following proofer instructions

step 6 : untangle rope and allow to air dry in cool atmosphere out of direct sunlight

 

enjoy clean (lighter in the rain if proofed) rope!

 

PS do not machine wash flip lines, this can lead to accelerated internal corrosion and accelerated flex cycling of where the wire exits the crimp/ crimps that can be hard to detect until.........pop!

Need to wash all my ropes there soaked and stink.. It going to happen tonight! Please bump a thread where this has been covered and I can't find any searching may just be because I'm on the iPhone... Cheers

Looks like fun.

That is true, but only Germany, Spain and Canada have the 193t!? I was informed by Stihl that they only get the IPL on mediacat 2 months before release!

I thought we were talking about the MS 201

Here you go.

The gap is 11 mm.

Yeah, but the 201tm isn't due here before summer

OMG What are stihl doing. Here in Germany since autumn 2014.

I've had 201T for a year now and am going to replace it because I have had enough of it. When I first used it I thought it sounded like a toy and was under powered which is even worse with a big bar on it.

 

 

 

Can I have some people's views on Echo and Husqy top handle please.

 

 

 

There will be a 201T on Arbtrader soon!

I've heard that the 201 M-Tronic is much better. Maybe you can buy a upgrade.

I've always bought oregon bars, chains, and sprockets. Last bar i bought was made in the USA ( it's normally Canada i think).

This oregon bar is from China.

Our gas bill for the year was 600 euros about 460 pounds. 110 square meters (heating and warm water).

Washing machine , use a net bag.

Very nice. Did you forget your friction saver on that day.

Congratulations.

More thieves than workers nowadays.

No but yeah but. I would want something like this.
