Hello all, haven’t been on for a while...here’s our little train set...minus the L200 [emoji41][emoji1360]

Get one of these little beasts!

Reggies favourite time of the day....playing in the wood chip pile!`
-
ha ha!, we havent worked that out yet!
-
a whole wood of mature Ash, these trees are about 70-80' tall and about 30-36k inch diameter. Its called West Wood and is an Essex Wildlife Trust reserve just outside Thaxted in Essex. Chalara has decimated this woodland and extensive clear felling has been taking place for the last couple of years.

It never gets easier....feast or famine. I was in this boat a few years ago. I soldiered on, largely because I can't do anything else!. There are easier ways to make more money...and there's always the option of selling up and going freelance. I did just that years ago, less hours, no stress...weekends off, time for hobbies. Now I've got my own trainset again....back to 6 days a week and the aggro that goes with it, but I'm happier with the reality of the situation now. Only you can make the call. I hope it turns out well for you mate [emoji1360]

We had 6 of these wagons, brand new, in my unit in the Army. They were all taken off the road within months...some problem with the diff....
-
Ah right!...I didn't know they did them.
-
I run a 501sx....what the difference with that and a 501sxh?
-
its an ms261c. My mate has one and its fine. once bitten...twice shy!
-
ha ha!...I have got Stihls and Huskys I love dearly...not enough to tatt myself up with though!
-
guess I was just very unlucky with mine. My mates got one and its great. I wish Stihl and Husky field tested their new products a bit better, instead of letting us lot buy stuff that is just not up to scratch, then addressing the problems with later models. I certainly wont be buying any new models again in the future. Reliability is my no.1 requirement...nothing worse than a lock up full of unserviceable saws

I'd love to use my 550xp, but it's the worst starter I've had in 23 years of saws. Not sure what to do with it?. Given up on myMS261c too, just won't tick over. I've got an Echo 501sx for general work...starts first time every time, as does my Echo 390esx. Our latest (a revamp), is an MS200 back handle, ported and rebuilt by Spud....it's an awesome little saw...everyone picks it up [emoji41][emoji1360][emoji1360]

What's the longest you've spent throwing a throw bag?
arbogrunt replied to billpierce's topic in Climbers talk
3 throws then the ladder comes out, unless it's a big un...then I bigshot it until it goes in or gets stuck! -
Yes mate. We've got another two day's cutting in there. Neighbours will be complaining about bonfires! I'll probably sell my greenmech, we're not using it as much as I thought.
-
Ours didn't!...spent an hour and a half trying to strip it down to go thru 700mm door...no chance. Ended up leaving the brash stacked in the garden for the customer to burn and a six O'clock finish! [emoji849]

How about having a magnetic-mounted motion sensor inside the bollard?. As soon as anyone touches it you can check your cctv and arrange an instant personal meeting
