Some great pics!

Took an Ash down today, cold biting wind, beach house underneath, garden lamp, and an old rickety fence to avoid, bit of smash and crash, bit of rigging. Pictures are journey to site (about an hour away), work in progress, journey home. nice easy day, enjoyable little job with an efficient crew. Thats an 088 with 4ft bar on the stump

Nice one tom, you coming back to Sweden this year?

It's not recommended to mate two crank halfs from different saws together-they come in a set and get manufactured together

Still Stevie

That's my take on them too-went from the 6" safetrac to a 190 Varitrack and the greenmech was on par if not better than the bigger tw. The safetrac system is fantastic

That they do

I read (so am not in any way certain) that the mark 7 had started in 2005, had 2 facelifts and then a model update in 2013, as i understand facelifts are cosmetic, the difference between the pre 2013 and post 2013 are more significant cosmetically, but the interior is very similar, same shapes ect. If the engine and the like are unchanged then its quite old imo. Still the 2014 model is extremely nice imo/ime

Do you know any more about the 2015 model? Or any of you who's been to the dealers recently? any more rumours? Ive been set on getting a new 3.0 Hilux in May, but the current model has been about for 10 years now, which is a long time in the car world and the limited info online suggests bigger, comfier, more power, better mpg, higher tow rating...but no date or solid info, very little really....

Beats a churchyard of 54 lime repollards, a double allé of 900 lime prunes on one street, 400 on a parallel street and then an allé of limes in another city for a break Wanna swap?

Mesmerising rich, I miss working on beech's
-
What make are they? How much to supply and fit to a new Hilux? Whats the extra weight? How does it affect warranty?

A few posts on Facebook from back home, 2 Irish guys selling chainsaws and generators from "a (transit) connect van with blue writing- A (something) van hire" and posts of people noticing the coincidence of the travelling fraternity being in the area and rise in break ins, and heating oil theft. Snape, Aldeburgh, Woodbridge and Leiston area

Yeah easy with a puller but not so without, tried levering it off but didn't want to break it (plastic) so Martins sending me his puller Rigging an elm, had a rigging rope which was far too short (block just over half way up the tree) so kinda snatching branches and timber onto the line, didn't need full control, just enough to pull the timber and branches in to avoid lamp posts and a new foot path. groundy letting it run to the floor. had the 46 sitting in the main forks for the big wood, using the 200 on the long branches, one 8ft long 15" dia lump of wood, the ground didn't let run, went into the saw like a battering ram. He said he knew the saw was there, didn't know why he didn't let it run, just forgot, very apologetic, no ones fault imo just one of those things. Some pics of the Job

My 460 had a little accident last summer Real shame as it was one of the last to be sold in the UK (had to ring round a few suppliers to see who had one - Skylands last i believe) and id only put 50 something hours on it, just started to loosen up nicely:thumbdown: Broken parts included: Both crankcase halves, Rear handle/tank assembly, sprocket cover, fan housing cover, switch housing and air filter base, plus the associated gaskets, bearings and oil seals needed. I'd won a bag in the christmas raffle from Gustharts, so got the parts from them, first dealings with them and fantastic service few photos of the broken components, and new bits built up with old innards ready to go. Hit a stumbling block getting the flywheel off, even the local saw shop couldn't help. So martin (burrell_) is coming up trumps and sending me his flywheel puller (aswell as giving advise ) Cheers mate

Looked a fun job, word to the wise, careful about slinging timber low, (as it looked in the video) was suprised some diddnt flip

As above Nice Editing and work Tim:thumbup1:

Less having to watch 2minutes of watching someone do their cuts. more watching the last 3sexonds of cuts then action! No more than 4min, 5min MAX. If I click on a tree video and see its 15min long I'll clickoff without watching
-
Harsh but true! Or start a grass cutting business, A name such as Norfolk Tree Care sounds like you'll be able to do anything to any tree anywhere in Norfolk. I very much doubt you can David. Very true, but theres also being being optimistic and realistic. Optimistically i'd love to be a male porn star banging all those dirty, skanky, fake breasted tarts, Realistically my sausage isn't near big enough for a start. Start smaller David, and work your way up.

Excellent! Thanks

Hi, I've heard of parts catalogues but never needed to use one until now so don't know where they are Does anyone have a link to a Stihl MS460 parts catalouge with exploded diagrams? Thanks!

Haglöfs vulcan 60quid 4years ago, still like new, waterproof, easy access, very tough, removable shoulder straps. I have had full climbing kit, inc rope, saw pants, boots, 020, helmet ect in no problem. Normally just have harness, spikes, helmet, spare crabs n pulleys, flip lines and pruning saws in though. Ropes in the cheap stien blue kit bags-one rope per bag. Works nicely.

EU court rules fatness now officially a disability
josharb87 replied to Wood wasp's topic in General chat
So fat people, who need exercise, will be given a blue badge, so they can park NEARER macdonalds or wherever their feeding trough is, walking (exercising) EVEN LESS???? Yeah thats a good f idea Narrower doors at fast food joints, and scales at the tills that show different menus according to weight would be better -
Remember I'm in Sweden and the pound is strongish atm If I buy cans its 25 liter cans, around 600sek from my friendly dealer, or via the aspen pump, which is cheaper still per liter but I have no record of actual cost Also going on gardenkits comments, everyone in buisness is vat registered here
