  1. Looking for some information on cutter shapes, angles, sets etc; what works best for what, crosscutting, ripping, hard wood, soft wood, live wood, dead wood and so on. Reading material on the net or book recommendations. Pictures ideally. "Show us your cutter geometries!" if you like.
  2. By Jove, I think he's got it. Cheers!
  3. I was under the impression that United Equipment was just a reseller. Seen some similar Ransomes and Kubota machines but nothing with the back looking quite so like a dumper truck. If I bother to repaint it I'll stencil FRANKENMOWER on the side.
  4. Can't find any manufacturer's info on it. Some instruction stickers in German. VW engine made before the wall came down! Any ideas what it is?
  5. Similar tale: Old family friend's husband died recently. Lo and behold, an ATV gone in the night within a few days. Area known for rural thieving types. Police as helpful as expected...
  6. If just for moving logs sideways or sideways and downwards how about a roller conveyor as a cheap (but limited) energy saver? Factory clearances?
  7. 3/8" chain. Whatever I go for I'll be leaving the rakers higher.
  8. Would like to improve cutting efficiency on dead wood. Can anyone recommend a good chain and setup please? Current setup is 15" ish bar, quite a round profile chain with low rakers. Cuts green wood well but quite gritty on dead wood. Saw is MS230 so not a massive amount of power. Smaller bar maybe?
