i cut thru one with the longarms lifting a row of beech trees and didnt even notice.only realised about a hundred metres down the road when i was collared by the owner.used to get away with getting them reattached years ago i believe its around £150 now.
-
keep up the good work.
-
i know the feeling.what i mean is the union of the fork where the two main stems meet has a fair old bulge.cant quite tell from the pics how good or bad the union is.
-
i agree.good day out all in all.plenty to think about if not a touch radical in a few of the approaches for me but defo food for thought. i agree about the advertising agenda but cant blame them too much.if twas me id milk it too.
-
nice work.was the main fork of concern to the LA?
-
i have.ive also seen it happen with a groundsaw/rear handled saw being used two handed.here the violence of the kickback forced the rear hand off the saw,spinning it in the other hand and hitting the operator in the back of the left hand.
-
upon kickback and with the force it exerts the saw can spin upon itself,cartwheel and hit you in the same hand/arm you are holding it with,all before the chain stops spinning.ive seen it happen.it doesnt matter what position your in.
-
strength hasnt got much to do with it.if your using it one handed the other hand is not where it should be to operate the chainbreak upon kickback (unless your reling on inertia).
-
cut and chuck can never be performed safely.the use of a chainsaw one handed is dangerous as you are not in full control of it.you dont stand a chance if it kicks back.thats why its ridiculous to teach such techniques.
-
i know a guy who did a similar thing to a friend of mine.my mate gave the guy a break when he first set out on his own only to find when he went to check on his work he was doing an extra job in the back.he hadnt told my mate theyd asked for extra work to be done and was going to put it through his own books. ill never know if this was the full story but safe to say my mate never used him again.
-
close call with that one mate lucky i was there to hold your hand,we all know you dont like little furry things:laugh1:

i feel realy sorry for the chap.hes obviously well proud of his work otherwise he wouldnt have posted them especially on a site like this where most of us can tell a good job from a bad one. bet hes had the shock of his life.its a shame now hes probly been put off.a bit more friendly dialogue at the beginning and we may have got a better picture of the situation or maybe not? come on alderwood let us know youre still there. -
Some people shouldnt be allowed near chainsaws....

jokers! a relatively staight forward takedown turned into a bit of a nightmare and a more expensive job. dont know whos more stupid the jokers with the chainsaws or the tree owners employing these jokers. -
wasnt entec taken over by timberwolf? definately looks like an entec to me.
-
hi sean.if your ever in the north hants area you should check out the old oak in the grounds of the vyne an old estate near sherbourne st john.i reckons you d be well impressed. with regards to the lack of tpo is it that the local authority has seen the tree as a potential risk perhaps earmarking it for future work(god forbid felling) and without the tpo this may be easier?
-
thats hilarious!
-
nice boots old snake!
-
the usual entec and timberwolf 5/6 inchers are pretty good.just take it easy with the deadwood and anything that reaches near capacity-save it for logs. the vermeer 625s are pretty tough cookies in the diesel form,their just that bit heavier to tow than the 750kg entec/timberwolfs.
