  1. Thought it was just me.... I topped out a fairly big ash tree earlier this year and at 25-30ft there was what looked like a hammer wedge right in the centre!!!
  2. Looks like you've cut the lawn after too many beers Frank...those are about as straight as Michael Barrymore
  3. be careful, i was also approached by a farmer in Essex for the same thing, although he didnt want paying for the wood i found out that he got a grant for the coppicing to be done...i didnt think that was fair if he wasnt doing it himself or paying for it, and as you say the labour would be very time consuming
  4. I paid £65 for 5 litres of glyphosate few months ago, can normally get 20 litres for £200, Sodium chloride is being banned and is unavailable to buy from the end of this month i believe, Bob, SBK was banned as i believe it was linked to cancer but what they sell now is a new formular, and it says that on the side of the container
  5. Top job mate......Its never nice working over gravestones....and all those bodies....makes you even more careful than normal if you get what i mean
  6. Yes - Husky do heated handles.....Iths the "G" on the end of the saw number...eg: 357XPG or without heated handle just 357XP
  7. I have my 357 from 2001 and it still kicks arse:001_tt1:
  8. Yeah, go with the Husky mate, 346 or 357, much lower vibes than any of the stihls i have used, also with your problem i would get the heated handle and maybe some timberland anti vibe gloves?
  9. I bet thats an 8" thick ring there....they always look smaller in photos....that looks like it'd be a perfect log size when split to me.....Loving the 395 there Matty!!
  10. I also have a transit tipper that does the road work....the hilux does the off road and smaller jobs, i know what you're saying though, i try to use that set up as little as possible on the road
  11. It really is......with the weight of an 880 or 3120 they pull themselves through the wood, and all you do is hold the trigger.....i agree its different on a horizontal cut
  12. He seems to know what a decent saw is already
  13. when its in the cut it weighs the same as all other saws
  14. Had mine the same time, bought it for a bargain from a mate who wasnt doing too well, keep it serviced and blades sharp and it does everything i ask of it
  15. I have fitted many a bearing on agricultural equipment before but never on a flywheel chipper, i think my local bearing company can get the bearing for me and i was going to have a go myself but i think i will take it to a specialist, thanks for all of your advice, I will get it right first time rather than having a go myself - top advice:001_smile:
  16. Thanks fellas, we have a local bearing manufacturer so i might give that a try, if not i'll give timberwolf a ring. cheers fellas
  17. I had a new engine put in my CH25PH Entec woodchipper last december, and late friday night i think the flywheel bearing went...cant be sure as it was dark and i havnt had chance to get to the yard and have a look.....any advice as to where i could get a bearing from or is it a specialist job...also would it be expensive and where would it be best to take it? Thanks in advance for your replies lads
  18. Pins and needles in hands every morning when i wake up, had a blackthorn cut from my leg that had gone through a nerve, had 4 stiches:thumbdown: and the occasional trapped bollock.....hate it when that happens and nearly burning the friction hitch out to get down to free the trapped nut:scared1:
  19. Will try and get a pic tomorrow, mine is a 25hp V-twin....I dont think the 27hp would work as from what i can remember it doesnt come in the correct shaft size and has a different air filter system that is much taller than mine, so it wouldnt have fitted under the fibre glass top
  20. I have the Entec Ch25PH 6" from 1998, great little machine, it cost about £900 for the engine including fitting and warrenty....i had a couple of head gaskets on my old engine, a bent valve stem and the old girl was getting a bit tired.....will try and get a photo of her
  21. Are you the fella with the sign up in Stanton Hope? Sorry to hear what happened and best of luck with trying to get it back mate
  22. I had a new engine put in mine last November by Universal Engine Power in Dumnow, Essex, the engineer got the wiring diagram from Timberwolf when he fitted the engine for us
  23. thanks for the advice fellas.....I really havnt got a clue what to go for now!! HAHA
  24. i prefer thicker rope and climb with a prussic
