  1. Thanks chaps. I have a look at the PMM3 for starters 👍
  2. As per the title. Im no longer in the Arb arena and back in construction so some advice would help. I’ve got to cut and scarf several good sized oak purlins from an oak framed building and cutting them with my chainsaw would be significantly easier than any other tool ( circular saws etc) on my truck. My question is would you just use a standard chain on my old Makita saw as I have got a couple new of chains still in the box, or would you buy a hardend / carbide / toughened type chain. Don’t mind ‘investing’ in a specialist chain if that’s what needed or would you just use a standard chain and accept that it will dull quickly. No danger of nails just very hard seasoned oak. Thoughts?
  3. Should have said, it’s the SC version and has unused 15” and 18” bars.
  4. I’ve got a brand new never used Dolmar (Makita) PS 420, supplied to me by Shavey of this parrish a few years back. Never even had fuel in it. Still in the box red plastic tough carry case with two new Dolmar bars and two new chains. Got is as a replacement saw for an old knackered husky but then chained jobs. Can be had for very reasonable money.
    Nice people. Paid cash too. 👍
  5. Its a seven year old post! This that it’s all gone or rotted away by now.
  6. Free! It’s a fuel, be prepared to pay for it! Might help you cause ! 👍
  7. Long term member on the arbtalk site. Looking for all types of green timber, wanted for firewood for my own use in my woodburner , not for resale. Used to generate my on timber but change of jobs now mean I need wood for the woodburner each year. Happy to take conifer etc. Easy access for any vehicle, no need for manual handling, just tip it on drive. Cash waiting
  8. As per the title. Looking for transit tipper size loads of unprocessed green timber / arb waste for me to cut, split stack for future firewood. Not looking for charity, cash paid. Used to generate my own but change in circumstances mean I need to source firewood for my own use ( not for resale ). I use between 4 to 5 cube per year. Located between Chelmsford and Dunmow, Essex. Maybe after the storms you professionals may have an excess of unprocessed trees to move on. Don’t mind what species, conifer etc, just not willow or other poor firewoods. Good access, can be tipped. Cash waiting. Hope this is posted in the right section. Moderator please move it if not. Many thanks. Jez
  9. Should have said it's got a 14" bar on it at the mo and a new (ish) chain. I'll post some pictures if anyone's interested?
  10. Got a 350 WES that's only had an hours use since it was serviced by SPUD last year. Also comes with a complete 350 TES engine inc clutch & coil & Muffler etc and a few other bits. Let me know if your interested, I'm only a firewooder and have a 420 Dolmar so the echo rarely gets a run out.. Cheers. Jez
  11. Aloe Vera is good for burns, work for me.
  12. What's the problem with the saw?
