  1. Nout wrong with that and if you ever have an apprentice or simliar something great to start with but after a while its get tiersome of using something so piss poor. But the other saw are fine mate nout wrong with em how many people do wyou work with /employ/ work for?
  2. weve got a 390 and 230 they are awful saws IMO 390 is to big for its lack of power Its a farmers saw 230 is a hobbby saw Not slagging you off or any thing mate ive been through it with these saws and realy dont like them. My opinioin though you may disagree.
  3. Depends how much work you do that warrantees a specific saw. If your a forester only, you wouldnt want a top handled saw would you? If you do no big trees in tree surgery as you may have just started out etc or you do no milling why have a saw bigger than a 441? Depends how many people work for you/with you? I wouldnt bother with a saw smaller than A 260/346 I know the frustation this causes.
  4. http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/general-chat/16381-south-east-climbing-day-no-2-a.htmlJust to follow on from Daves post its definatley worth it I went to the last one as pretty much a novice and it helped me alot and have since had much more practice but it was definaltley the start point for me theres also folks from london who travel down so you may be able to pinch a lift.

  8. Ok so It's not huge but I have got a ton sitting in my sky rocket. Basicly my local has a table of 49 numbers and you pay a pound to select a number and you win if the number you pick comes up as a bonus ball on the lotto simples so the winner gets a hundred quid cash in hand. It basicly means a hundred quid of shinney arb stuff. Any one else have any 'Big' wins before?
