    David - Canon 550D. The display is in the abbey gardens, but its £6 to get in. There's a school field overlooking it with a better view for free! and Mick, it's Father Jack (we didn't have enough sparklers for drink and girls)

    Playing about with the new camera. Best to watch the video in 720p on full screen. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYi7r1wvgO8]YouTube - Fireworks Bury St Edmunds - Tchaikovsky 1812 Overture[/ame]

    a subby we use brings his 372 with 24" bar for bigger jobs. a pleasure to use! loads of torque and quick pickup. in fact i prefer it to the ms441, even though i'm a bit biased towards stihl. it feels like it has just as much grunt as our 046, despite a lower engine size and hp. when i'm eventually working for myself it will be one of the first saws i will get

    buy new mate - you'll get warranty, after sales support etc. i went to my local dealer last year to get a 200t, they said the best they could do was £480, then i showed them the price fr jones were selling them at and he got within a tenner of it! i think it was £426 at fr jones and i got one for £435. you won't be able to buy a new saw without being there to collect it, as per stihl's postage policy.

    wow! simply amazing. you have a great imagination, which i think is just as important as the pure skill.

    very entertaining video as per usual, but i have to ask.... do you price in a cameraman to the cost of the job? or does he actually work in between the branches coming down??
  13. alex_m
    You could use that to your advantage! Every job you get with lots of timber, and the customer wants it taken away, get them to do the work and you keep the money!

    To answer the original question, Medium is what you need (+7cm if they are over 6 foot). I am 34 and medium is a nice fit.

    Pics from yesterday (really really cold). EDF shut down the power in the morning, got the whole lot done by 2.15pm, probably due to the cold - it made us work faster!! First time i have used a big(ish) saw climbing (046, 25"bar).

    Hi andy, i would certainly snap this up if i weren't in full time employment - it might be worth sticking an add in the bury free press job section. You'll certainly get some idiots call up but i'm sure you'll find someone suitable from it.
