  1. Hi there, Just changed the bloade on my tw150 for some new ones with the intension of sending the old ones off for sharpening. On removal of the old ones, i've inspected and at the lowest point from (damage) of blade to the wear marker line is 2-3mm..... i put them up to the new blades and they have seen a lot of use and are smaller so will have been ground before, just wondering if its feasable to have these ground again or are they too close to the wear mark? cheers Chris

    Poplar

    Is poplar really that bad of a firewood? Does it varie through black, lomberdy, grey and aspen... Brought some back to the yard yesterday and today and just wondered weather to process it and split in and put it on my pile or give it away? any opinions valued, cheers
  4. when and where is it the apf? is there somewhere with events on a calender cheers
  5. i love my 361, initially it had a 18" bar on and i was doing a job felling dangerous tree's at schools it was brilliant for that work! its now got a 15" bar on as i have a 441 with a 20" on and it was too close a match for me as the 441 hardly got used..... still sadly doesn't get used much as go straight to the 064 for bigger stuff....... just my tuppence
  6. yeah sadly no one can compete with that, that'll be a beer money job for the gardener....
  7. exactly why get a 70cc saw when you have a 660? sell the 260 and get a 60cc saw or keep the 260 and still get a 60cc saw.....
  8. Do you still get small jobs though at that price? small hedge etc
  9. that was a hi vis vest job i'd say so people can see where you are lol
  10. Lol all that power gone to your head lol just can't bring myself to buy a pole saw, just can't see why i would need one or really benefits from being 400 quid lighter in the pocket.....
  11. Would have made a good speedline job to make life easier?
  12. you boys quiet on railway work? and yes agree 2 ft dia needs cutting first to make easier and more efficient
  13. i did like the dragonfly but someone talked me out of it saying they didn't last long so went for the tree motion. i could happily just climb with a willans t22 then throw it away after the required time and buy another lol
  14. you make it sound like there is a poll lol tree motion at the moment, with backup willans t22
  15. Yup everyone needs a minimum charge.
  16. yes, was just hoping there may be more lol anyhow, i've ordered a piston and cylinder up to do one of the 034's up
  17. Have you checked the compression with a compression tester or just by pulling it over and thinking thats ok? Take the exhaust off and check the piston
  18. Just curious, i have a 2005 200t and its a good runner, just wondering with the age etc if it would be worth doing a compression test on it and maybe fitting a fresh piston to it, seem's as though they've stopped selling the 200t? Just a thought
  19. Still looking to work with new people and new experiences
  20. are chain brakes the same? maybe the wrap handle, side cover yes.... cant think of much else
  21. Hi there everyone, Just wondering if anyone knows if any parts are compatible? and if there's anything worth saving from X2 034's i have that may come in handy for my 361....? then i can put the 034's up on ebay for auction Cheers Chris
  22. Totally agree I'm the only person that uses my gear so know its ok
