  1. I was thinking this a popualar route to go down - although it was .325 .063 - so we got a fair few of the Husky bars in .325 .063 so that then you would only be running one chain - but very very few takers (and even then 40% of those had bought the .063 version by accident! Not sure now can face ordering in the 3/8 .063 for Husky (in the smaller K095 mount)!
  2. Not yet - they both seem pretty good and I'd say on par with each other but not done enough with them yet to say much more than that. Are you keeping your 280 joe?
  3. Not nice! Hope it heals back to full strength.
  4. Good stuff - is it Douglas you were milling? Boards would have felt very heavy even for softwood.

    Tiny echo!

    All ours will automatically go out with the 1/4 .043 Sugi bar and chain combo by the way...

    I think we are getting ours Thursday! So there's a couple of folk need to return their 2510s... And everyone wanting to keep their CS280TES needs to buy it here Special Offers Archives - Chainsawbars or return it to us as below: Always Greener Limited Unit 2, Brookside Farm Agars Lane, Hordle Lymington, Hampshire SO41 0FL T. 01590 681259
  7. People are asking do they need to change the drive sprocket on the MS150T and MS150C-E to the Sugi chain. No you don't! It is the nose end that there is the cross over issue between Stihl bars and chains and Sugi bars and chains as below.... The Sugi bar and chain combo we well go straight onto the MS150T and MS150C-E. You can see a vid on this here.
  8. It's not no I don't think it is worth doing these in a shiny just yet... But it is lovely and light and actually the Sugi laminated bars are very well built indeed so I think you'll like them Plus they run the new Sugi chain. Folk are getting confused about the Sugi chain - you do NOT need a new drive sprocket - it is the nose end that has a cross over issue with the chains.... Have done a wee vid here on this...
  9. Just out of interest is it a WordPress platform you're using?
  10. No prob - we try and stock all that we sell - not always possible.... but we are not a 'get in to order' business. If you are Mainland UK orders before 3pm usually will get to you the next day. We don't always get it right - but we do try and always get it right
  11. All sorted Dan and we will also change guage to gauge!
  12. Hi Tony - I found this as well and just filed things down until they fit. It's not ideal I know but I can't see the grinder being changed to allow for the wider chain/bar at this stage and with a small modification things work fine. That said please update on this thread any mods you did and how they worked.
  13. Pleasure thanks for taking the time to post your findings

    In fact have set up a product here for CS280 owners - £94-00 (to allow website charging shipping). You need to return the saw to: Unit 2 Brookside Farm Agars Lane Silver Street Hampshire SO41 0FL UK Put a covering note in with the saw. We're not expecting many but one or two hhave said they will hand it back. Or purchase this product here to keep it. Special Offers Archives - Chainsawbars Until one or tother is done we won't be able to send the new saws out!

    Where are ours then!! I called the other day and no reply... I will call Monday and kick up a little more fuss
  16. I don't even see how it will work - money earned compared to money spent on clearing up fly tipped rubbish!!!! In France (or where we had a place) domestic AND commercial was free - simple as that - they know what the effect would be of charging... It is painful sometimes in this country....
  17. A week or so ago the new chainsawbars website went live on a new platform. We will launch it officially soon - still working through a lot of amends and tweaks - but it is fully operational. You will have to open a new account to use it as we could not transfer across info that easily... you can use same e-mail and password. On your next order just tick the create account button. But those that have used it what do you think?! New special offers button here http://www.chainsawbars.co.uk/product-category/special-offers/ Video area is re vamped so you can see all videos we have made... VIDEOS - Chainsawbars It should work much better on mobiles and in time will be much better populated with chainsaw makes and models. If you want to see a chainsaw up there ask us - it is a MILLION times easier to add than the old site!!
  18. I find these questions tricky to answer - what sort of effect are you are looking to get? - matt/natural/glossy/hard wearing/easy to maintain/smooth... the list is long!

    We have not been told anything yet....
  20. You could prob go around the 30" mark with standard chain, 36" with a lo pro set up. Your chain sharpening skills are the important issue!
  21. Yep very slick - that's the sort of thing would go for good £ in the right place.

    Emigrating

    One of the first most original threads I've seen in a while! Where we live it's the same vibe - people are uptight, in a rush, trying to better their lives, irritable... On a plus point we do seem to get stuff done! As inefficient as we are we are driven and more efficient than a lot of other countries... (IMO that is). Often thought of moving or at least living half in one country and half in the UK - not sure how practical that is though... Not easy and good on you for taking the plunge and making it work.
  23. Good to say hello again Ted and thanks for the name badge - a nice touch I thought!
