ms 660 30inch bar easy to use in the tree if youre using a big saw in the tree, its gonna be at the end of the day-dont really want an 880 up there! 880 for the ground ringing up fooooking big stuff! 660 copes with pretty much everything anyway

shopping-you go in (fully clothed preferably, but pjs will do if youre too lazy to put proper clothes on), pick things up, pay, leave, eat/use youre purchase almost as complex as rocket science
-
if the bar and chain combo is too big for the power of the saw, is there any chance your dealer could make up a skip chain for you? save buying new bar aswell if it could be done

we had a polish bloke with us, very hard working, no phoning his missus every half hour, decent grasp of english, never complained, too hard working at times-needed to look up more! even brought me a bottle of zubrovka and polish sausages each month for giving him a lift to work!

from previous posts it sounds like you cant be picky where you are, so ring up every single company in the distance youre willing to commute and accept any job offered, with any ammount of work-a day a weeks better than nowt

yeah it was perfect, frame was filled in with weld mesh, and if chipping, just had some thin ply which was cut to size to fit against the mesh, and rear window. i too thought about corner posts, but was too much of a headache to fabricate them into this style of load bed almost worked too well-could seriously overload the old girl!

just put up with sticky rope for half hour, then its all clean again!

make sure the air and fuel filter is clean, adjust carb back to stihl settings as mesterh describes, (dont screw them in tight, as youll wreck the rubber ends) if still no luck, get an air-line to clean the crap off the outside of the carb to prevent debris getting in, take the top of the carb off, you'll find a real fine wire gauze filter-that might be full of sludge-treat the insides of the carb like a surgeon would with a heart transplant! what colours the spark plug?? (white, digestive buscuit brown, or black?)

i had a hilux, lust made two frames out of angle lengths, sitting ontop of the bed sides, drilled three holes through the frame and bed, bolted a length to the rear window frame thingy, which bolted to the sides, a brace across the top, and a cros brace at the back to stop the sides moving like a parellagram, which had a wing nut on to remove for loading ect

where abouts in cambridge you working?? would love to see a tree spade in use again

be realistic-dumfries to MK-around 5hours via car-not exactly something youre going to want to be doing every weekend is it?? you spoken to youre current GF about it? may well be a cracking opportunity for her, but better than seeing youre son everyday/week? be selfish, stay within half hour of him

nah, irish yews are the ones that grow upside down:001_tongue:

never takes more than 45min to install one brace, once you get into a routine!
-
yes, and no for instance, the oak in my pics, was reduced and braced (new bracing not pictured) so that it could last another 5 years-as requested by the client, in which time its replacement will be established in my view bracing can also help limit the chance of a potentially hazadours limb ripping out-increasing the life expectancy/asthetics of the tree for, potentialy decades

why would you prune a tree for insurance reasons?
josharb87 replied to TJ_toast's topic in General chat
to reduce the risk of subsidence/tree falling onto house/roots damaging foundations/branches hitting roof, guttering ect
