    felco for secateurs silky for hand saws for the rest it not easy, and it depends on a lot of factors, eg your soil type, what height you are, type of jobs you doing, what you growing, rain fall and I would recommend old tools as they have been worn in, and they are often cheaper and better made unless you are willing to spend a lot of money, as good quality is hard to get for example the last spade I got was a tree planting Treaded Tree Planting Spear | Premier Spades | Spades | Bulldog Tools for digging in hard ground with a lot of stones, for the likes of gate posts, as it narrow point lets you get access and good penetration i am thing of getting some of these hoes as they are good Glaser Oscillating hoe no. 404

    dean come on you could do better than that easily and removing another 3" at least, keeping a very similar spec and I mean it, and save some weight in certain places

    as long as it not over 10' wide I would not worry, and if you are worried tighten up the stay chains on the side without the over hang

    I what about a battery saw as you don't have to stop and start it all the time

    I ran a 42 Special, though have used a 346 once, and I can say there was a big difference in the 42, 346, the 42 was a nicer saw by far and i wanted to put convert it to a 242, it used weekly still on the farm, as it replace a 023 stihl and i now have a 550xpg, the 346 was no were as nice to handle compared to the 550xpg, i love the 550 for work as it so nice to handle, just like Chris says, we have to remember that there is a huge difference between arb and forestry, when it comes to how a saw is used day to day, forestry it hardly stops, and how it handles as we have a far higher ratio of sneeding to cross cutting and speed is a far larger factor as it is often payed on a piece rate, and felling a trees at a far higher rate and were the tree lands it says there general, i love it, but still not total sure on auto tune, but the saw is worth the risk as it is a brillent saw

    I am on the hunt for a replacement for our 1987 3CX, but i am not sure what to get, another backhoe or a loader and track machine as i love the ability to have a duel use machine as most of our work is either reaching over fences cleaning ditches or lane maintenance i like 3cx as you can go so easy from a to b on the farm. but you don't have the slew get on a rubber duck or track machine,

    I had a brake that would come off but the leaver would stay back getting in the way and if touched it would engage and it was the handle that had worn on a 272

    no chip is less labour intensive as it far easier to handle as you can do it by machine I can remember the hassle of loading the boiler daily
  25. NI Tree
    I am in the same situation at the minute, and replacing our old biomass boiler as it is 35 years old now,
