  1. Not tried these myself but not heard good things from friends. Generally the courses will teach you to use the Oregon type and I would imagine you’d get a better finish
  2. Just had a look online and it looks like the Milwaukee saw uses .325 pitch chain so that would be a 3/16 file same as 4.5mm. Don’t think that there is a difference in trousers other than class that relates to chain speed. I’d be looking at some cheap oregons from Screwfix if it was down to me. Don’t forget boots too 👍
  3. There is a good video of chainsaw tuning on Steve’s small engine saloon on YouTube
  4. Sugi hara at very good bars, very hard wearing rails. Only bettered by cannon in my experience
  5. Did the tank on the Jensen chipper at work last year, there was a lot of crap in the tank, once it was off and cleaned we added a “stalk” so it didn’t suck right from the bottom of the tank. Also worth changing the run off pipe that goes back into the tank 👍
  6. Fiskars will send out replacement string and cord. Or at least they used to. It’s a bit of a ballache but there was a good video on line (not in English but easy enough to follow) of how to change it. Did a few in the years I worked for myself. Also liked the wolf garten rr400 which was similar to the fiskars but would wear out and be difficult to extend after a while. Had a button you could press to double up your pull on thicker cuts too thick was handy. Gardena also make one which wasn’t bad but the adjustable head was always movable and couldn’t be locked which was annoying if you wanted to push it in above a growth point or push a hanger out.
