  1. things can change in less than 9 hours http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/chainsaws/43686-ms261-needle-bearing-play-drive-sprocket-common-problem.html#post675644 so i would advise you that you should not be so dissmive of husquavarna as you be the one who is let down otherwise husky's rock:thumbup:
  2. we dont even have an air abulance in northern ireland and they have to use the irsh coastgard seakings if desprate,
  3. no not a cat skidder they just a pussy compaired to a horse they can not go half the places a horse can but cat do rock:lol: i drive a 910 with 15000hours
  4. it get in front of the next depth gauge, and most is pushed a long in front of it, hence skip and semi skip
  5. will watch it on i player thanky for the heads up
  6. if it was me and money no object i would use an air spade to airate the ground due to the 1000s of feet that have shaltered under the tree for hours on end.
  7. it also harder to pull out of junctions the further forward it is as you further back
  8. there has to be be some way of fixing the leaver too the shaft, and the shaft look likes it is installed from inside the gear box, and if it is not rotating but the leaver moves, then i would say yes if the hole goes all the way thrue the leaver, you may find that the shaft has rotated so not lining up.
  9. i hope all went well for him last night and that he recovers quickly
  10. The problem firewood folk are talking about the cost of roundwood, look at the amount of threads on here about roundwood cost exctra and most if not all are in the firewood forum, so when some one come on to arbtalk what they see is that people are buying in roundwood to process for fire wood, they probally dont know the differance between arb waste type timber and low quality foresrty cord, and they see this site as populated mostly by arborist so there for there is no differance between roundwood and arb type waste so if you got a question about cord price or for sale sell dont post in in the firewood forum but in the forestry one as it a forest product this would help everyone in the long run and help the go public under stand the differance between the sectors.
  11. that is a very low rpm to be running the engine at, it make me think you using the 1000 pto geart but only for 540 rpm at the shaft, i would try 540 pto grear and you engine well need to be at far higher rpm though ps i dont use a mog but this is my exprance with tractors
  12. no they dont lol they have to leave it on site (if it a certified site)
  13. they grew it for timber and them it fell so they trying to cover there costs to make money lol its all in the name of forestry
  14. i agree volvo when i was in auz they had to drill there posts in to the ground and they said that the post holding strength was porportional to the depth of the post in the ground Squared X the size of flat area on the base of the post ie a post 1' in is only 1unit but a 2' is 4unit ie 4times better held in the ground ps that guy is missing one of the more usefull things on that driver the rock spike as they brillent for driving strainers in to the ground enven if there is no rock
  15. i dont use wrist watches, as they got in the way when milking and when fixings machines so i use a pocket watch on the belt, ps the belt doubles us as a set of hobbles for horses, and the leatherman is brillent as it not in the way in you pocket. i use it all the time
  16. get clarks as is only only a couple quid in it
  17. i would recomend clarks biodegrable oil, i find it very good and the very well priced espicaly condering it biodegrable oil SuperTack Bio Chainsaw Oil (25 Litres) | Clark Forest
  18. ollie and born to trot i feel for you both
  19. its tidy but needs 5k speending on tyres
  20. i would forget about kit at this point in time as you have said you self you a total novice when it come to forestry. it is very important to have a clear plan for the future and what you what to use the woodland for. a hobby could be lots of things be it the fun of it, shooting or you are wanting to produce some of timber, (fire wood as you have stated). thiss affect hugelly how you go about mannaging it as a well as the location, soil type, wind acess deer exctra, . as each method is very driffernt and you very unlightly be just be using one method but several. I will also back up guss about born to trot he is a very nice man.
