@trigger_andy have you weathered the floods near you OK?

What  make and model of bar and chain are you using? 

Climb an Abies, self tending wont be a problem then.

Wrap some tape around the cut end back from the damage and heat the end with a lighter to seal it . I am not a climber so others will shoot me down if this is wrong but I have done this with ropes in the past . . Its your life so don't take my advice without other opinions .

As Stubby said.

No, prob best to use a cambium saver as would not want to be accused of causing damage.

Very bad form, but could not help saying it.

These sorts of jobs are usually a right mess of curved cuts until the trees finally gives up!

Or know how to use a loggers tape

You could develop one yourself on a slow day, I can just imagine you presenting your ideas on dragons den.

Borrowed a recoil saw strop one after other climbers raving about them, nope I was raving at it as if you did not stow your saw it kept wrapping round your climbing line, mildly annoying. 

So still using a traditional saw strop like yourself.

Don't piss about . Put an electronic tracker on it . 🙂

Bit late for me, bit like shutting the door after the horse has bolted.

Anyone with a spare Zubat handle and screws, or a blunt one, don't matter what length. Succumbed to loosing mine today, have spare blades so thought would ask 1st before buying a new one.

I feel your pain so much I'm having to lie down as I'm experiencing flashbacks of anger and frustration.

 Mine had the same issues which no dealer could fix and in the end resulted in a new engine thanks to the intervention of Mark at BASCO (Briggs)in the UK.

I suspect the ECU developed a fault.

Why?

 Because there was literally nothing else electronic to replace.

 

 

Cold sweat breaking out again Ty?

All present and correct, but going through shit at the moment, but we have a plan.
