    Tiny echo!

    Never heard of them so just had a look at their site to see if the saw was on there... It's a bit 1990's!
  4. Some are dreadful, post office being the worst. At Christmas they threw a parcel marked fragile over the side gate and no note through the door so it sat there for 3-4 days at a guess in the rain and it was photos for Xmas presents 😡 totally ruined
  5. Did the same thing with a hedgecutter, left it on the side of a road and got 30 minutes drive away and realised when stopped for fuel, still there when I got back. Worth checking
  6. Yeah I'm on my third set, get about 6 months a set with touching them up with diamond disc this set has done up to this size. Rock machinery annoy me as twice they've told me they've sent an order that never turned up so been waiting two weeks. Will try these guys next
  7. Awesome thanks, let me know if they're decent quality as need some pretty soon, last stumps I did it burned it's way through rather than cut!!
  8. I've spoken to the guy who sells the alpha machines on Facebook a couple of times and asked about teeth, quoted me similar but could never get a phone number from him or link to where I could buy them online!
  9. I've got a set of these I got from eBay for £40 well happy with them, would pay full price as should last forever
  10. Funny how the brain has decided the brain is the most important part of you!
  11. Warn them there might be marks and ask them to protect the walls, saves them money as not paying you to sellotape cardboard. If you don't think it's possible to get through without causing damage is not possible to have a small burn up in the garden? Had to approach one job like that last year as was a maze of junk to get anything out
  12. They are but I think echo saws look cheap as all that orange colour you'd see on the Chinese crap where husky add the gun metal colour and stihl had white to go with the orange so they look a more premium product
  13. I vaguely remember that but haven't seen anything about it. Imagine it would be a pretty complex thing to make
  14. There's this one http://oceanofgames.com/professional-lumberjack-pc-game-2015-free-download/
  15. My one generates business for me more the face that I can offer the service when taking down a tree so more likely to get the job rather than having to leave it or allow extra to hire someone in to do it. I do the odd job that's just grinding a stump but as a stand alone thing it doesn't make me much money.
  16. They look to be the 60cc saw to look at these days

    Stihl hs82r

    I think most people still using the hs81!
  18. Of course it doesn't, I climbed hundreds of them as a kid and didn't have either!
  19. Any dealer I go into says the same about any saw I'm about to buy as well! Sure they're good saws though
  20. The echo rocks I'm taking down this thuja at the mo and got it down to here with the echo with zero drama and not even using the stihl chain 😉
  21. Give arbrep a call/email and they'll send you a pdf for your machine if you supply the serial number
  22. If it's cheap enough i'd think about it. Something to keep me out of trouble when works a bit slack!
  23. Yeah well why not. Looks a tidy machine. Defo gonna keep an eye out for a cheap spares repair one
