Starter cord snapped on the 66 once and managed to punch myself in the face and split my lip wide open against my teeth, not funny at the time

I dropped a 5 ton ash tree onto my 66 once,pushed it a foot into the ground,still punching myself in the face now!

£150 a day,an acre will take you a week alone (which you shouldn't be doing)

That mus be why I never see him around in other pubs, I'd rather drink the 2stroke out the husky than any beer from there 😷😷

I think you should,goes down easier than chain oil and is more readily available.......it seems

In fact here is his number 07530232473 I got him in my phone as cabstar man and can't remember his name bit he is a nice bloke and knows his cabstars

I'll second that,think he's in Taunton area,had a lot of stuff off him,top bloke

Is risotto a favourite of arborioists? Ha ha

Echo 360 is reliable,great on a 12",try one

echo's are great saws for the price don't know about the 390 but i run a 360 top handle and 620sx both great saws a little heavy but great runners with good power.

Ditto

I sold my 066 last year,a good un,sent 30" bar separately,had message from buyer,bar arrived but no saw,letter from Royal Mail saying saw had been destroyed as contained fuel!!!! Buyer claimed back money through e-bay (fair enough) which I refunded straight away then he completely ignored every message I sent asking for bar back! I closed my account

Get a disco 4 on lease/lease purchase,look after it and chuck it in after 3 years for another

Think outside the box jon

Old dog new tricks? 21 years a chainsaw licence now I need to be refreshed (apparently) never say never,most of the day was discussional,a few angles have changed and I can say I really enjoyed it.instructor was Graeme hodgson from tup North,smashing bloke,can highly recommend

If of any use to anyone now or in future,top outfit called geartech near Kidderminster,highly recommended and great service

Disco 2 auto revvy and a bit gutless. If you get a good one will be more reliable and cheaper to run but the disco 3 is light years better to drive. The disco 2 is a bit of a dinosaur with its design roots back in 1990

I think it shares light units with a maestro van amongst other things

You'll probably get ten different answers to this from ten different people but here's my two penneth!

 

I cut logs to 10inch length and reckon there is approx 340 logs in my 1.1 cubic metre loose pick up load. When stacked this is about 0.7 of a cubic metre. I would reckon you would get more cut logs stacked in the shed than stored loose in dumpy bags.

 

I hope this is of some use!

This is about correct

I have doen 50k on my Kumho kl71's they are good tyres too...

I second this choice if you can get em in your size,had 3 sets on a fourtrak over 7 years,mustard tyres without bfg price

Found on a oak I dropped last week.

 

I have no idea..... any one?

If your looking new i was happy dealing with Marshalls engineering for a Krpan winch. Krpan do make a great quality 3pl winch with some of the nicest to work with winch cable going.

Any good to you? Not a bad saving on a new one either.

 

If your going to use it a lot bite the bullet now and go electro hydraulic and power out feed.

Won't see a lot of use,fortnights work then put in the shed or sold

Hi 88 how what about Wilsons then they should have some thanks John

I pull my hair out every time I phone wilsons Jon,bought my cutmaster off them and took a thousand phone calls before it was delivered! Won't discount them though

Bump

I find if you carry chain oil wid ya you tend to need to sharpen less often

As titled,anyone have one for sale? Willing to travel.will go new if need to but rather not! Recommendations welcome too.thanks

You're being ironic now,you clearly worked hard as always

Never went near their phones Stevie? Judging by the pics you had time to

Coletti i'd hafta cut the zorst in half to remove the cat which i don't wanna do as the saw is still under warranty.

 

THE88MAN, did ya use an Echo 10'' bar or was it another brand ?

Echo mate,not sure it would fit but does,destroys stuff up to 6"
