You need to give multiple options, or specify more accurately which conditions apply, as different setups are used for different conditions.

This has been discussed at length in this thread: http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/chainsaws/13520-new-type-stihl-oil-caps-7.html#post262287 In the linked post, Stihl has formally acknowledged that they have a problem with the bayonet-style oil caps

Priceless! I love the "slant cut" at 7:24. And the caption "A slant cut in the back is only for small trees". I wonder how he feels the slanted cut helps felling any tree. Guess it feels "safer", somehow.

Thank you for taking the effort to organise the collection, Justin. Do you have any ways of accepting donations from abroad (£20-30)? I tried making a donation using the procedure on your home page, but it only accepts UK-registered credit cards.

This wood burning stove has "HUSQVARNA VAPENFABRIK" cast into the oven door. That translates as "Husqvarna Weapons Factory". Yes, they made weapons, until the late 1960's, see Husqvarna Vapenfabriks Aktiebolag

I seem to have heard that different bio-oils are refined (typically from rape seed oil) to different levels, and contain different additives to: Change the viscosity, to make the oil "stick" to the chain Prevent the bio-oil from "hardening" through oxydation, generating a resin-like substance. So, I don't think you can make general conclusions about bio-chain oils. While they may share some properties they are clearly different. I have run exclusively on bio chain oils (different brands) for the past 5 years and have never had any problems. But some brands get too viscous at very low temperatures (-10 C). I know several professional arborists and forestry workers that use plain cooking oil (rape seed) for their saws. It is a little low-viscosity (thin) and it oxydises easily, so they don't leave it in their saws for prolonged periods. But the cooking oil is cheaper than bio oil when purchased in "catering" quantities.

Using a 0.005" (1.3 mm) gauge .325" chain as opposed to a standard 1.6 mm gauge chain gives you a 0.3 mm reduction in kerf width. With a 8 mm kerf, that results in 3.8% less sawdust. Hardly worth the effort, huh?

I'm surprised whoever sold you the carving bar didn't also suggest a sprocket. A quick Google for "Stihl Carving Bar" turned up this supplier of Stihl carving bar/chain and sprocket for MS 180 Chainsaw Carving UK, Wood Carving Supplies, Stihl Carving Kits

So, as the MS 180 is "born" with a 3/8" pitch "Picco" (low profile) chain (and matching sprocket), you'll be alright if the carving chain is also 3/8" pitch. If you have a 1/4" pitch carving chain, you'll need a new 1/4" pitch sprocket.

Question is how you define "release"... Husqvarna has "launched" the saw, and someone has won a saw Fastest climbers scurry to pole positions at APF So some climber somewhere in the UK actually has the saw in his hand. But whether it is available for sale in the shops is another question. But if Husqvarna wants to avoid having their resellers inundated with calls about the new product, they could choose to put some availability and pricing information on their website. Just my £0.02 worth.

It doesn't state "max rpm" but "Maximum power speed", i.e. the speed/rpm at which the greatest power is output (1.8kw/2.4hp)

Find out who they are, and make them a written offer to buy the logs they have already taken. Offer a reasonable rate (say, £150/cube - you estimate the quantity), and give them a week to pay up. Let them know, that if they don't "accept" your offer, you have plenty of ideas of how to get justice. Possibly a good idea to hand over the offer letter in person. It will give you a great deal of satisfaction, and leave the options open to you.

Spec here HUSQVARNA T 540 XP® - Top handle saws And a picture attached below. I look forward to reading som first-hand experience reviews

+1 I have been considering bying a MS171/181 or MS200 (rear handle version) for snedding. Light weight, small, and not thirsty. But I already carry too many saws around with me, so I ought to resist the temptation... ... I really ought to resist. ... But on the other hand....

No problem, at all. It's good to hear about real peoples real experiences!

OK, then. I didn't realise that you had already used a 261 with an 18" bar and 3/8" low profile chain, and liked it. That just goes to prove that sometimes all the theory (mine) i blown out by actual practical experience. And if you like using an 18" bar as your primary, then it doesn't make any difference what I think, does it? I am a little surprised, though, that a CS31-equivalent (small trees up to 38 cm diameter) would suggest using 18" bars. At least in UK and Denmark, the limit is 15". But that is another story.

I'd argue that it requires quite a bit of energy. You need to visit the site one extra time/day. That takes time and energy that could otherwise be spent earning money.

I must admit, that I don't understand why you prefer an 18" bar to a 15" bar for general limbing/snedding, when you already have a larger saw. Ergonomics, safety and saw-balance dictates using a shorter bar. My preferred bar size is 13" W.r.t. the Low Profile (Picco) chain and kerf width: The picco chain makes a narrower kerf (not just the difference btw 1.3/1.6 mm), due to the teeth being narrower (less of a bar "overhang"). This chain/design is chosen mainly on low-powered saws (hobby/arborist), as it removes less material, thus requiring less power. Also, the Low Profile (Picco) chains cut quite a bit slower than .325 and 3/8" chains - another reason not to go for it. Think, for a minute, about why the only Stihl pro saw with a 3/8" Low Profile (Picco) chain is the 200T (and the 200 rear handle, which is not available for sale in the UK). Conclusion: Stick with 13" - 15" bar and .325 chain on professional mid-range saws (Husqvarna 346XP, Stihl MS 26x, ...). They were designed that way for a reason.
