Got one of these but the next strength down- would def get the one in the link.

Top out ASAP or leave until last - mass damping, inertia etc

Was due to dismantle a medium sized alder today, partly over a conservatory roof. Thought better of it and just doing some ground based work as 52mph gusts just wasn’t my idea of fun 👍 -
Location will help 😏

Hi all, not sure if this is in the right section, but I’m in urgent need of some new either Predator multitip teeth or rhino alternatives for a big job I have on tomorrow. placed an order at the beginning of the week with northern arb supplies ( who have been brilliant this time), but royally let down by UPS. Were due to be delivered on Wednesday and have now allegedly been scanned at Stanford le Hope distribution centre And are possibly now stuck there with no delivery date being confirmed, just sometime next week! Won’t allow collection - only 30 mins from me so would be happy to do that. Anyone have any that I could purchase please or know any localish stockists in Essex? cheers guys 👍

War of attrition! Keep cutting back, stripping out, digging out small stems, cut off bigger ones, poison with glyphosate, or use eco plugs (same thing but more controlled), repeat process again and again until there’s no more regrowth. No magic wand unfortunately- just hard work, patience, and swearing until it’s gone 👍

Sorry, I should have said I meant the ignore user button

Makes some threads that started off as interesting unreadable- very annoying when the abuse and derailing starts. Have used the ignore button in the past but can’t find it now!

Just started my new 8010 this afternoon for the first time - feels very good and smooth. Will get to use it properly next week so will see how it goes 👍

Just bought one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STIHL-KOMBI-COMBI-COMPATIBLE-POLE-PRUNER-CHAINSAW-FITS-STIHL-KOMBI-LIKE-KM-HT/324434670754?hash=item4b89d034a2:g:yOgAAOSw2LFeFwVs Seems to fit ok so maybe the whole range is interchangeable?

STOLEN IFOR WILLIAMS TRI AXLE FLAT TRAILER

Sorry to hear that bud - will keep an eye out as not far from us. -
Got a 360 about 6/7 years ago and been a brilliant bit of kit that has earned its price several times over. Only weak points are the brake arrangement which is very poor - get some spare cables as you will need them, and the exhaust shook itself to bits a couple of times. looking to upgrade but not yet sure what to

Hedge chippings for a chicken run
rapalaman replied to Joan Hardingham's question in Homeowners Tree Advice Forum
That’s one I would avoid for any kind of livestock. Horse place that takes some of my chips insists on no yew. -
Depends on your area but here around Essex 130 - 140 per bay materials and labour, that’s decent quality close boarded panels. That’s about 60 on materials. Disposal is extra - if it’s just soil, maybe 30 for a 6/7 bay domestic fence. More if you’re taking out old fence/concrete/timber all have different disposal costs. never price on day rate for fencing

So very little more than brash dragger money. A whole lot more job satisfaction though and sounds like nice surroundings to work in.

The echo pb 8010 is about 580.00 if you shop around. Will be ordering one this month after using a br500 (I think)of a mates. But I don’t want another 4 mix engine. Have a few echo bits and always been impressed with them

Good mate of mine, 57, has been in hospital just coming up to 3 weeks now. Still on oxygen, luckily off the drip now. always fit and healthy, non smoker, not overweight or a big drinker. His kids in 20s had it, bounced back, his missus had it bad but just like flu and now recovered. he walked up the corridor 20m with physiotherapist and said it knocked him out for rest of the day, 25 minutes to clean his teeth and have a shave. just praying he gets over it and home again. self employed like many of us so could be a long time with no income/sick pay.

Anyone available to check for electric on a boundary that we’ve got to remove old hedge from and replant new please? Located near High Easter, Essex. About 30 meters of frontage to check, householder has no clue where it might run so really want to locate it before we start. weekend would be best, Cash paid 👍

Exactly this - hopefully a slow and lonely demise!

Central Park? Fished it hundreds of times through my teens and still do occasionally 😁
