  1. To be fair the question time episode done them no favours but in the run up theyll be on to unemployment hotspots etc. Im glad you saw their true colours
  2. I hate to say it but I think those people ( which to be honest I doubt many will vote) if they do will go for the BNP british jobs for britsh poeople and all that I hate to say it but I can see the BNP doing quite well in there terms
  3. I think your wrong about us not being a christian country or you think other faiths are largr in the UK than christiantiy, I once found out a fact and ill try and find it again that said the number of white english is around 90%. Maybe im estimating a bit on my next calculation but how many white english peeople support other faiths? once again another internet search just revield that 75 % of people in britian are christians. Makes no odds to me I cant vote even if I wanted to.
  4. thats bad news mate sorry to hear that
  5. had this problems a month or so and the grinder just wouldnt work on a slope something to with oil on the slope not getting to the engine. We tried to stick a rope round a tree with a prusick to hold it there while 3 blokes tried grinding just wasnt happening. About 20 stumps in a garden and we only managed 10 luckily customer was alryt and happy with it like that.
  6. Holders are brilliant its odd to say that there rare though, The bloke I work for has had two since Ive been with him unfoortuantley got rid of one 2 years back and the othr a year ago was real shame. I never new how rare until I read this thread.
  7. I dont like spiders but I wouldnt consider it a phobia as such but frogs! I get very panicy and act like a big girl. When I saw the frogs in a tree thread tittle I considered never climbing a tree
  8. In reply to the spider bit was that a forgien country you learnt to climb? If not why scared of spiders for:confused1: Dont mean that disrespuectfully just wondering
  9. Think you jsut missed one by a couple of days there always seems to be 260 ish saws coming through here.
  10. Not sure about the 435 but I cant stop banging on about a 346xp I think they are amazing saws, I know you have to grease the nose of the bar not sure about clucth. That is my only gripe about huskys is the outboard clucth but it is very minor
  11. Top handled saws are dangerous and according to industry guidlines shouldnt be used on the ground, with one hand and by someone unquialifed to use one. As this is an ARB forum people here are profesionals and using a top handled saw in a lader with one hand is what gets peoples backs up, there must be about one thread a week about un professionals doing what you do, I cant slate your work because I have seen no pictures Sky huck is right you think that by making your life easier by using a saw one handed from a ladder you think it doesnt have an effect on professional arborists lifes? As well as your because youve cut your hand off etc. Well it does as he pointed out more red tape hassle causing self employed people to spend more monney they havent got As for using a 66 as a felling saw on small trees is your choice realy but most peopes adivice on here would be to sell your 200t (unless you want to start climbing) and your 66 and buy yourself a 260 or a 346. This is just from an apprentice im sure theres more to come.
  12. I'm not realy sure how well its 'policed' as I havent got my 39 nor attempted to buy a top handle.
  13. Who you bought one or the original poster did?
  14. Wow what a stupid thing to post on here! ok fair dos maybe you dont understand that people will realy hate that post but still. I dont no If im wrong here but when you buy a top handled saw do you have to show some kind of proff hat you have your cs 39??? I might be wrong everyone picthforks at the ready:001_smile:
  15. I think if you do something where people have to go to effort by going through pay pal ill doubt youll get a donation. Can you just put a table and chian a box to it or something similar and go past every other evenng to collect the monney? Good on you for thinking about charity rather than yourself good bit of PR to
  16. well done looks an incredible find
  17. We seem to have stihl not sure why but I remeber someone I work with saying that stilh messed up the measurement of were the line is for the 5 litres? Think this may of been on older cans and may have sorted now. Like stihls anti spill cans thoguh
  18. wow stevie that first pic looks a great bit of kit:thumbup1: Can you put othr attachments on the end instead of the grab such as post knockers and augures:confused1:?
  19. But if your ever in the south east go to the reccy climb here you know its going to be miles better:001_tt2:
  20. I live in hawkhurst to:thumbup1:
  21. 31 trees an hour isnt bad at all realy. if you can keep that for 9 hours day that 279 trees Not bad at all for a begginer.
