  1. type c for me as thats what my employer insists on, i dont mind to much. Theres only a handfull of days each year where its to hot and makes wearing them uncomfortable.
  2. I'd be more than happy to help
  3. I've never seen one, but have heard from some good mates who live up on the hills that there about, farmers have lost sheep to them and dog walkers have had sightings.
  4. i would say 441, but dont rule out the makita 7901, i use one at work and its just brilliant. There consiberaly cheaper to.
  5. As it happens, i bought this today well pleased. yamaha 250f, road registered at the moment but il only be using it off road at my local practice track. I say local its just outside my house.
  6. Yes, they are good machines. The tracked jensens are also good IMO
  7. I assume as this letter was sent to you, they have just made up false plates and stuck them on? Crafty buggers.
  8. IMO the 341 is no different to the 260 when it comes to vibrations. Gloves do make one hell of a difference and so do heated handles. But i choose not to use either of these so maybe thats why i notice the vibrations. Thanks, Tom
  9. Yh i'd say hummer to, just because you might not get the chance again.
  10. I've been climbing just over a year now i try and use spikes on every takedown i do, just so i become comfortable with them. I'm glad i started to use them from day one as now i feel completly comfortable using them.
  11. The ms441 has very low vibrations and i could use it every day, it may suit a 18" bar more than a 15" though, this may be to heavy for what your thinking but just having my bit of input I run a ms341 and find it a great saw with 15" bar but wouldnt really say it has particularly low vibration, but with low vibe chain and a pair of gloves you might notice the difference. Tom
  12. Im in somerset and its ok for me now, been ok for a few days.
  13. Thats the other side of somerset to me mate, im based in wellington. So abit to far for me to travel, sorry.
  14. Seen this once before, still love to watch the old guys work. Makes you think how "easy" it is for us these days.
  15. I've got plenty of green and seasoned oak, along with ash down in somerset if your willing to travel
  16. Any pics? I'm looking at getting something like this as an investmant oportunity. Tom
  17. Tell me about it, when ever i carry a combi it either seems to fall out or i end up stabbing myself, and the amount of times ive had to undo the oil cap on the 066 and not had a combi anywhere close by also the fuel caps on are new makita have a habit of tightening up on them selves. This tool will save alot of hassle
  18. Proper job. Il be in touch once you've got it, im keen to get my hands on one.
  19. Thats a lovely tool, ive been after something like that for a long time. I will be getting myself one! Thanks to fletcher stewart also
  20. Brilliant! Might have to do that next time i have a spiking session, just have to justify it in the risk assesment
