  1. hav u got any makitas and if so do u like them. my bro is a chippy and loves there tools, but there newish 2 the saw market and id like 2 giv 1 a go at some point.
  2. Whats the point in buyin 2nd best. A chap i sub contract for uses them. They dont start, there in and out of the menders all the time, they rattle themselfs 2 bits. Tell me somethin good about them other than there cheaper than a sthil, but i supose u get what u pay for.
  3. watchin it now
  4. looks like its bang smack in the middle of the ms260 and ms341.
  5. sorry mate thought u were talkin bout a huski. 280-i looks a nice saw. the only thing i dont like is the bushs looks like they would rip with abuse. had a 250 which did just that. depends what ur usin it for.
  6. wat? have u seen a bonfire? it not just the carbon its the heat also. plus woodchips normally rot down on flower beds and paths puttin valuble nutrience back in to the ground. sounds like there havin u on mate to be honest.
  7. This could get ugly, buy a saw not a sewin machine. ha ha.
  8. heres some more only got a camara 4 xmas but hav bin usin my phone.
  9. thank u exacly the sort of thing i wanted 2 hear. 341 here i come.
  10. no chap think a spotter just makes things complicated. and my groundsman is 2 busy draggin, or drinkin coffee, or on the phone wat ever he does.
  11. sure we could talk bout file sizes and chain pitchs all year. but has any1 used both saws and which i stood out above the other. cause if theres nothin 2 write home about im gettin a 26. lol
  12. owned a defender 90 200tdi for well over a year now replaced a core plug (easy job cost 60p) and put a new batt in it which is maintainence anyway. its what u do with them that costs the money ie off roadin after the pub and bendin bits. silly boy. lol
  13. they do work if ur that bothered, or can be used as a false anchor point. but 80% of the time ur goin 2 b anchored in above where ur cuttin 2 anyhow. or should b.
  14. 1 of many small reductions
  15. landys r good 4 ever acation
  16. na mate me 441 and if i got a 341 would use the same size i belive. 26 uses a 3/16 file i no. And the 200t uses those small rounds.
  17. 361 is 2 much like the 441 and not enough like a 26. if i had a 66 then maybe. soz mate.
  18. my only prob with a ms260 is its yet another size of file 2 carry and the 341 has lots more power for little weight difference.
  19. loler should b keeped till the pub on a fri ,that way it becomes routene.

  21. Im looking at getting a smaller ground saw because a 441 is to big for must snedding and the likes. I would like to to see which people prefer. oh and ive never used a 341 but hear nothin but good things.
  22. great idea warmin up just got myself a tennis elbow. not drinkin every night helps with the joints aswell.
