  1. Tractor with saw bench.... But you will hear the ring of the blade or battery chainsaw depends which way the winds going
  2. Logs are trickling out still, very strange weather! A few have sold out. I had a call the other week off a guy wanting to buy some wood to split if it was seasoned to burn himself. Said he was getting a trailer load for 20.00 and thats all he wanted to pay. The other guy had stopped selling him logs and the guy on the phone to me said he had sold more than he expected..... sorry i said, you said they were for personal use! What an arsehole lying to me! Turns out he sells roadside for 3.50 a net, started this year and sold out mid december haha!
  3. Wow! What an expensive job! Front main roller, bearings knackered and pin knackered. The three other little rollers, bearings dissintegrated! Shafts buggered. Its cheaper and easier to replace the small rollers. Dear job! My question is, what grease do i put on the bearings? Id normally put multi purpose grease on but redwood said long life? Cheers
  4. 990 selectamatic
  5. Just splits, loads with pallet forks and when i want fun, shove the chip pile up lol thats what its done for me for the last 3 years Also loads chip up into vans n trailers, have run saw bench on it aswell
  6. No, not that i have noticed. Will look tomorrow in afternoon when we are back at the yard and let you know. I take it you mean manifold not exhaust silencer? Mine doesnt breathe much and runs clean on exhaust smoke etc
  7. Yes it does but i just changed my splitter recently and the ram is stupidly massive, so its slow but i just knock revs up a bit. Will split anything though
  8. You need to check how much it weighs first before buying so you can see what it can 'legally' carry
  9. 10 ibc crates with just a splitter is good going i would say I think its an hour to hour 15mins per ibc with mine just me on own, gets boring though Then you have to keep the buggers dry! Thats where the pain begins! Did you fit a new hyd pump or 2nd hand?
  10. What can you do though? Would do same with a pto one

    Cc or hp

    cc is engine size hp is the power out put with the bigger cc machines comes more weight, then you start to think about power to weight ratio. Bigger cc generally better for running bigger bars so its a heavy bugger with x amount of power, then another model lighter with the same power or more would have a better power to weight ratio the bigger the cc the more hp 'usually' to help with answers, what models of saws are you looking at?
  12. Big tree, looked deceiving at first! Definitely one you could boob on pricing!! lol Well done
  13. Wouldnt ise face book full of tossers and key board warriors with no money

  15. Spot on pal! I think it speaks volumes about other things aswell, a vehicle is a very important thing and costly to buy / repair if blown up etc Prevention is cheaper than the cure
  16. Im still going for big old berberis! I thought i won this a month ago with berberis
  17. fix it
  18. Ebola in Glasgow: Live updates as woman tests positive for deadly virus - Mirror Online
  19. Been out today and bought some 'decent' punches and a blow torch for myself. Extracted my cheapo snapped punch, then knocked the roll pin out with heat and decent punch! Cheers everyone
  20. I'll have a go at removing old blade tomorrow if i get chance and post back size
  21. I need to get a new blade for my pto saw. Im sure, when i last looked a year or so.ago they were 160.00 for a tungsten tip one... but cant remember where? Anyhow if someone can point me in right direction then great Cheers Chris
  22. Been knobbled there with that saw bud
  23. Either for me, dont mind which
  24. Must remember and i will pop over!
  25. Think i'll try again with a blow torch tomorrow. I ran a drill down centre of roll pin to remove all solid gunk in a hope it would give it some room to help come out!
