  1. I usually retrieve mine before leaving the tree. It’s not foolproof , it still gets stuck. Just something to know , the ART RopeGuide has a larger pulley.
  2. Oh well , the windscreen isn’t so dirty anymore
  3. I try to leave the dirty cut to the last.
  4. From watching the video it works great. But I’ve still got my pantin. I think most new products are good ( at least for some people ).
  5. Research at more than 60 protected areas in Germany suggests flying insects have declined by more than 75% over almost 30 years. Any ideas what’s causing this.?
  6. I’ve used ladders to cover a garden pond. Or to climb over a fence. Don’t own any myself , but most homeowners have them.
  7. They low enough that’s for sure. Text book felling
  8. The sandwich looks tasty , you do like your onions.
  9. Seems a good tool. Watch from 3:20 on.
  10. Who’s out with the kids. I usually stay put. The Wife is out and about with ours. If you don’t answer the door here (Kladow Berlin)your house gets pelted with eggs and flour.
  11. Some of it is quite good. But it’s too repetitive for my liking.
  12. http://www.stihl.com/STIHL-power-tools-A-great-range/Chainsaws-saw-chains-guide-bars/Chains-bars-and-accessories/Accessories-for-chain-saws/21427-63700/Combination-socket-tool.aspx https://www.honeybros.com/Item/STIHL_Combination_Socket_Tool 16 mm and 13 mm
  13. The cutting action is basically pulling a very sharp blade towards oneself. The worst for me is coming from a old blade and start using a new one . Heal well Dan .
  14. Thanks for the feedback. Nothings perfect. Plus being tear resistant could be a downside for snagging and getting pulled into chippers or whatever.
  15. I stopped wearing gloves a few Summers ago ( hate sweaty hands ) But my recent finger injury and now seeing other hand/finger injuries ( Climbing Arborist ) It’s back to gloves i go. Something that’s cut resistant.
  16. Instead of a stick , i use my silver teaspoon.
  17. So far i’m not impressed. Anybody else care to share their experiences of this chain.
  18. I don’t have a favourite saw , but having a one with a sharp chain is a pleasure.
  19. The first top in the video brought back memories . There was one time pushing and guiding a top over , my glove got caught and i was lucky the gloved ripped but at the time i thought my arm was gone. The glove was worn and had holes in it. Once again , a very good video.[emoji106]
  20. Use a hammer to knock around a bit .
  21. Very good.
  22. Try this
  23. Get your wallets ready http://dmmprofessional.com/documents/offya-and-deviant.pdf
  24. Not bad for 51 , eh
