  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Surely you have heard the word before?
  4. Had to recruit the kids to help today. Wordle 1,010 6/6 🟨⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 ⬛🟩⬛⬛🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  5. He is a diver mate. Pretty hard to do that on land.
  6. 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.
  7. Good for you. Thanks for illustrating my point. It is much appreciated. Keep up the good work.
  8. 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?
  9. Jeremy at Top Notch Tree Care is based in Purley. A.N Rowlands. Trees UK based in Bromley. ABM Trees based in Croydon. Love Trees based in Penge. Oxleas Tree Care based Bromley Area. Give these a call as they are well established companies and may be able to help out.

  11. 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.
  12. First go ever. Took 5. I had a hard day, or I am thick! Wordle 1,004 5/6 🟩⬛🟨🟨⬛ 🟩🟨🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟨⬛🟨🟨 🟩⬛🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  13. Depends how much dog shit has been shovelled that day. 🤮
  14. Or cooking bacon on a shovel covered in tin foil.
  15. 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.
  16. No.
  17. haha. In your dreams🤪
  18. You slag.
  19. 4 years out of a saw. I bought my second 150t when I moved to Norway. That was 7 years ago now. The one before that was bought brand new/second had from a guy on here for 230 quid. I had that quite a few years before I moved to Norway. Both saws are still going strong. I would argue the first one I bought for the cheap price is a good value for money saw.
  20. I thought I was a decent climber. I have obviously been using the wrong parameters for measurement. 🤪
  21. A bit like Trigger’s Broom?
