Gristy, my suggestion would be to follow the information in the first post. It says to text or email the poster. In a way, a request like that is the first part of the interview process. Can a potential employee follow the simplest of instructions? Unless you are exceptionally fortunate, the world won't coming looking for you with offers of big wonga and great working conditions. Yet that is available if you go out there and grab it yourself. Read the post, send the guy an email as he may not look at this advert again.

Sorry to hear about the beagle. I once hit a dog with the fully loaded truck and chipper on the South Circular in London. I was almost as gutted as the owner was. Jack Russel legged it across the busy road. Front tyres, Rear double and then the chipper finished the poor thing off. I can only imagine that happening to my own dog.

Kira will happily sit in the truck when we are at work. I occasionally bring her out and tie her up. When the chipper is going she just chills but when it stops she thinks it is her time now. I have tried tieing her up when we are just climbing but she just goes mental. I had to come out of a tree once to put her in the truck. She doesn't mind the cage in the back of my hilux, at least I know she won't be up to mischief in there. Sadly I cannot let her out and run free. The prey drive is a bit too strong in this one... I will end up spending the rest of the day wearing our my boots looking for her.

Standard it comes with. Not sure, a friend has a 194 running same bar and chain combo as the 201. Mine cuts much better and smoother. Definitely worth a try.

Most of the time tbh. Drill the exhaust and a retune and it is a blinding little saw. Picked one up second hand with about 3 weeks work on it. Paid about 130 quid equivalent and it has ran great for coming up two years now. I only use the 150’s for pruning works and barely use the 200’s at the moment. 194 then switch up to the 400.

150t x 2 (10”) 194t (12”) 200t x 2 (12”) 441 (20”) 660. (28”) I regularly work with a guy and use a 400 and 500i as well. He also has a 201 rear handle. Pains me to say it but it is a decent little saw for the right task. For a small ground saw, chipper saw etc 550 or 560 Huskies are really popular here.

You would know. I haven’t picked up a 026/260/261 level saw for probably around 18 years. I stand corrected but still wouldn’t own a 241.

Surely you have heard the word before?

He is a diver mate. Pretty hard to do that on land.

Home owners saw. I wouldn’t bother myself. Saying that I would bypass a 261 as well. I really like the next group up, the 361/362 etc. now I believe the 400 is the current offering. the 400 is an awesome saw and more than worth the money.

Good for you. Thanks for illustrating my point. It is much appreciated. Keep up the good work.

You are not really doing much to differentiate your self from them are you? Have you ever made a post in here that isn’t a cocky comment to try and garner laughs?

Agree Mick. I did work for Greenwich Council about 20 years ago. Last just over 3 months. Couldn’t hack the lack of graft. I was young and hungry and couldn’t get my head round it. IME we could have done the same amount of work by 11 and had the rest of the day off. I literally could have had 2 jobs. Instead we left for site. Setup everything and then stopped for breakfast. Work for about and hour and then tear down the site to be back at the yard for 11 for an hour lunch. Back out at 12, set up the site and work till 1345 then tear the site down, back at the yard for 1430 and then sort paperwork out and go home. I couldn’t handle it. I did get a good tan though that summer.

Depends how much dog shit has been shovelled that day. 🤮

Or cooking bacon on a shovel covered in tin foil.

They often run skip chain on the larger bars. Less drag and cutting softwoods, it works. Also a point to note, in the PNW the ground is usually steep and often they can’t get round to double cutting on a treacherous slope. Hence the large bar length so all cuts can usually be done on the same side.

No.

haha. In your dreams🤪
