Depends on the damage, if ligaments are torn but not separated maybe a couple of months to walking properly, but rest it up and when ready do the physiotherapy to keep it mobile.

Bless you Metsman, I know how it feels having just recovered from similar, it will take some time to recover, wishing you well.

I pay 15 quid for aspen, but I'm not saying where or Felix will get the hump....

I have the Echo 390, it is a very nice saw, well built and cuts fast for its size.

I see you turned that experience into a thing of amusement, good move mate..

Picking up the urn that he was in, she poured him out on the patio* table. Then, while tracing her fingers in the ashes, she started talking to him.... 'John, you know that dishwasher you promised me?* I bought it with the insurance money!' She paused for a minute tracing her fingers in the ashes then said, 'John, remember that car you promised me? Well, I also bought it with the insurance money!' Again, she paused for a few minutes and while tracing her fingers in the ashes she said, 'John, that diamond ring you promised me?* Bought it too, with the insurance money!' Finally, still tracing her fingers in the ashes, She said, 'John, remember that BJ I promised you?' 'Here it comes.'

That is great news Sean, I have been collecting some images, and will make them available in case they are of interest. -
That is some piece of kit, I'm lusting for it!

That is excellent, lovely carving.

I honestly was not taking the p#ss mate, if I were to I would admit it, the land the bypass is to go through seems to have a historic value as an entity, but progress takes precedent these days in many areas.

PENMON FAMILY HISTORY AND RELATED TOPICS - SAVE THE BRIMMON ANCIENT OAK That's a start, Google brings up loads.

There is more to this story than just the tree mentioned here, having read up on it, has the government body concerned no shame..
-
The development company sound to have no ethics whatsoever, it is good that the road proposed is to be moved, but is it enough to fully protect the tree...

Hi Nick, I admire your work attitude and outright open manner, that should get you an opening, what skills and quals have you in the trade? If you list them here you will expand your opportunities, I wish you all the best in your efforts here.

Hi Joe, the saw is faster than the 150, even on a 3/8 chain, not sure if this is the case if buried in wood, but there are options on the way from Rob D of chainsaw bars, as earlier in the thread he mentions. What cuts it for me is that the saw looks and feels better built, it's not perfect but what is? I too want to see Echo succeed in there saws, and feel they are already a force to be reckoned with, as you said a lot of development must have gone into the little saw, and it can only improve with feedback. I'm probably a little biased in favour of the brand, but only because I feel they make sense in design and spec, and I hope they develop more great saws and get to challenge the top two brands, it's good for competition, and user choice.

On page 32 of the user manual are sprocket part no. 1/4 chain sprocket is. A556-001710. 3/8 sprocket is A556-001720
-
Echo produce a sprocket for the 1/4 chain, it's the 8 tooth one, as against the 6 tooth for the 3/8 chain.
-
I think they have produced a 150 beater, stronger plastics, better bar oiling, lighter,smaller, faster in the cut and equally good ergos. The bar and chain, I'm running the 3/8, is of good quality, certainly not rubish, and after a resharpen seems to have settled down nicely, maybe not as smooth as the 150's chain setup, but certainly not an issue for me in live wood. I have not tried the 1/4 chain so I'm not qualified to pass judgement on it, have you Joe? In my opinion looking at the whole package, it is way better than the 150, and I have both to use, both are good saws, the Echo is just better all considered imo:001_smile:

Yes it was, and that they were burnt out before crushing by legitimate companies. I would give my back teeth for the car they crushed at the end of the clip, looked perfect for a nice custom conversion.

Interesting video, I bet the narrator would have kittens if he saw our waste now...

Aye pal, once I hit 5th gear it was laying it all in the next field:biggrin:
