It's the same engine as our Dan equip 25 sp but seems twice the size and weight and is a tad top heavy. If it's affordable and reliable go for it but I'd look at other options if they're there. You probably don't have the same access issues as us so size may not be such an issue.

We've only had it a couple of months and haven't got a problem with build quality or reliability, it's just so heavy, big and badly balanced, I reckon I burn twice the calories using that over the blue chip.

Can't stand our rg 25 We bought it as we're finding the blue chips too unreliable but it's an overweight, cumbersome, unbalanced old dinosaur in comparison. Wish we'd looked at the bandit.

Mid Surrey take any green waste,

I've got a smock, find the collars a tad uncomfortable when up despite (apparently) having a long neck myself, on the whole they're pretty good but usually end up chucking on my ex army goretex as I prefer the full length zip so you can take them off easier and the massive hood fits over the helmet. The smock is no more waterproof than my 8 yr old ex army stuff btw just brighter.

How much was that Dom?

I reckon it might be a Portuguese laurel. Not sure why. Think it's a sixth sense.

Still saying pear with a bit of rust.

Your attachment point on your harness is supposed to be weak and the point on the saw also. Think it was more of a problem when using back handled saws on old school harness's

I normally get 12 months out of any boot before I wear the soles out but I'm pretty much permanently on the deck these days. My air streams are on there way to Meindl at the mo for resoling but the uppers are in good nick.

Lawsons Thuja Leylandii
-
Lawsons branches tend to lay flatter whereas leylandii the foliage grows off at different angles from the branch/twig, thuja's kind of a bigger flatter needle/leaf (Wish I could describe it better, I'm sure someone can).
-
Looks like lawsons to me
-
Mind you if the cones are an inch across its prob a maccie, they don't sprout from old wood mind???
-
If it's sprouting from "old wood" and your not sure if it's leylandii or lawsons it's probably a thuja 😊 Jon dropped off that cotoneaster yet?
-
Unless it's grown through through from the other side
-
Depending on the height you should be able to leave enough foliage so you can't see the dead stubs in the middle, I often take the stubs in the middle lower than the foliage so there's even less chance of spotting them. Where you start can vary but I'd normally start on the right if possible so I can cut with my stronger right hand and chuck with the left. Pics help

Holly perhaps

Well your welcome to it if you can get someone to collect, there's 4x2m sections and one a bit shorter, tree was about 60cm at ground level, wouldn't mind a few boards myself but if you're paying for transport I realise there may be not much in it for you. I'm away at the mo and am gonna switch the data off as its a rip off so won't be able respond for a couple of weeks. 👍
