  14. thanks for the advice sky, i only do it when i have bored into the timber and theres no chance of it kicking up. jungle spikes into the timber and sorta rock from the back end so if there was any kick the saw would hit the uncut timber and stop. as for the reason i have been doing it is because i seen someone doing it a while back and ive never been told off for doing it 2bh but thanks anyway i shall bear it in mind p.s when i said the 36" bar bareley marked it i mean in legnth, it was a triple stem beech that had included together. it would have been near 6 foot diameter
  15. everytime ive used it the chain has eather been brand new or fresh sharpened, just needs some persuasion in beech for some reason, specially the big thing 2day, the 36" bar barely marked it
  16. nah nevver m8, sometimes got both hands on the rear handle if im using the 660, just for more leverage but other than that no. its only after a few days it kicks in, ie working monday teusday with saw then by friday trapped nerve
