  1. should fly even with a 30" and fairly quick with a 36",sprocket nose bar ? solid nose will drain the power Quick test for compression, decomp out,pick saw up by rope, should hang there for eternity if it has good compression
  2. husky 236/240
  3. £60 A METER , plus gate and fitting, plus trellis, id be looking around the 4k mark,without taking out the old fencing !!, nothing wrong with your pricing mate
  4. my husky 99's are fine cut ! look the same as your stihls. ps, never mind new hedge cutters you need to get the leafblower out lol:laugh1:
  5. as above, would it go to a 30" in hardwood ? cheers

    yep i had a dolmar 9010, 30 inch bar, no problems but like shavey said, no racehorse but bags of torque, bit on the heavy side if you are taking it up a tree but a perfect ground/ringing up saw

    jonsered 2188

    oops, just bought a jonny 2188 from across the pond, £700 inc shipping, probably have to pay £70 customs but i think a bargain !?
  9. can anyone recommend a small chipper, ie to go through gateways, i dont want a full on 6" plus job, just something to do small jobs and that will fit in back of transit, 3 " max chip capacity would probably do
  10. Not arb but landscaping, Looking for help within my business,for an enthusiastic person, to help with , mowing,strimming,hedge cutting,weeding,planting, general garden maintenance.etc Experience would be good , but can train also, driving licence would be really good but maybe not essential. Ideally local to me (eastleigh,romsey,southampton,winchester etc. Maybe there is someone out there who needs a few days a week, maybe more, or full time ? Worth having a chat over a beer or a coffee ? Give me a pm, guys and gals all welcome. cheers mike
  11. good choice mate
  12. like that idea, does teleporter have boom out, if so could boom the stillages in and out
  13. love that old highlander, is it a roadless 75 ? give her some new red paint, she deserves it !
  14. my sarp 19 inch cuts and collects very well in the wet,fills the bag even if the the grass is sopping wet
  15. we really need a "like" button on this site ! nice saw fella:thumbup:
  16. or possibly the other way round, fuel line pinching wen hanging off rope ? av rubbers/springs weak ?
  17. jonny 2171 great saw, ive got 4 jonsered saws,2165 is the same as old 365, gut on ebay is selling 2171,s for £599 free delivery, you could do a lot worse
  18. leave it 24 hours, see what others say lol
  19. 460 is tried and tested ! another blinder of a saw, but maybe overkill, adds a bit of weight and a few cc's, plus a few £££'s
  20. best bet is to have a go with both, im a husky fan for saws, but use stihl for hedge cutters and blowers so i cant say im a true husky follower, personal choice i suppose, what dealerships have you got near you ? might swing it either way , id still go 365/372 tho lol
  21. its always better to have more than you need, maybe 372 xp, blinder of a saw, will pull 15" like a mad man but more than happy on a 20" and will pull a 24" for the bigger stuff if needed
  22. 365 x torq, im sure i wont be alone on this
  23. i remember curtis padwick,proper place ! and scats used to sell proper gear. do you remember a guy called mike tait ?
  24. husky,flymo,mc culloch , jonsered all owned by electrolux, i believe jonsered and dolmar were around before husqvarna (chainsaws anyway ) please correct me if im wrong and correct me if im wrong again but arnt some solo saws made by dolmar ??
  25. dolmar, or jonsered, jonsered was its own company before being marketed under electrolux so can get away with that one !
