  1. Also when subbing on other peoples jobs and using your own saws do you take your own fuel or trust theirs? i can't see the company you sub to buying you a new saw when it seizes due to improperly mixed fuel or at wrong ratio... For one company i prefer to use my own when subbing to them....
  2. i know i can do a hell of a lot in a day esp on a take down btw 80 a day is a ground rate
  3. i'm on good money when subbing as a climber to a few contacts round here 2.8 is whats in mine aswell, you ever do the timing belt?
  4. Question from me then on this subject if you don't mind..... how do you explain to these companies that your day rate needs to go up without getting shown the door due to the vast amount of people up here in the north willing to climb for 80 a day? Its funny when you speak to other companies and say its "x" amount per day for climbing and they sound shocked and say they only pay 80 a day and can you do better if there was lots of work....
  5. do you know what years they are? should say on the chainbrake, black handle(silver sticker) also the last one, do you mean a pole saw?
  6. Still looking for work a day here or there would be good as a top up
  7. Excellent opertunity for someone there!!! Glad there's some people in the industry willing to do this Must be better down south
  8. why has he changes to .404 and then even to a duromatic bar? Surely that will sup plenty of power from the saw?
  9. sorry i can be of no help, but wondering what kind of pole saw you have? good luck with the job, i'll be looking at the thread to see what other people would do
  10. I agree with everyone, but where's the 200t's gone from your website jonesie??
  11. i'll start using them a bit more then and see how i get on got a 361,441 and haven't used them on them yet, deffinetly use it on the 088
  12. If i wanted new of either i'd just be on the phone to jonesie's not flea bay
  13. You shouldn't even need to use the de comp valve on a saw of that size, only valuable in bigger saws. Technically you push it in, pull the saw over till it fires and comp valve comes back out, then switch to fast idol and pull the starter again
  14. What would have been he action plan if you couldn't get a hoist in and still had to be dismantled? Good execution of the job though
