I find your comments regarding my lack of friends or family offensive and rude. You know nothing about my friends or family as far as I'm aware? I passed no judgement on you, I just pointed out that if the situation was as I thought, in my opinion (which you asked for, when you asked the world what an appropriate reaction would be) you were out of order. It seems from what you've posted you've got some issues with taking criticism, getting cross and unfriendly to others when they point out your faults?

Trust you to ruin a good hypothetical solution with reason and common sense!

With hay and straw, the size of bales got dictated by weight, as you still had to lift the baled material. Then tractors got loaders and balers got big, as now the limiting factor is the transport size. If you baled brash the same as straw, you'd not be able to lift the bale, which would therefore need a loader.... Then you have the problems associated with small bales of uneven material -they bend and fall apart- and small bits fall out. How about going from the existing situation, devise a way of bagging the Woodchip in mesh bags/nets. Then they could be stored and dried like your bales?

Ahem...

Don't mean to sound too harsh but.... Man up! You did something stupid, wether or not there were people watching that could have stopped you or not, you did it, not them. Have the balls and good grace to put up with the pi staking.

Been there, done that. When I still lived in the Netherlands I worked for our local waterways authority for a while. Got a wee hurlimann with a slasher type mower out front, mowing the path and an offset flail on the back mowing the bank with a conveyor moving the grass up and onto the path. I'd be chased by a little holder with a finger bar on a long reach arm, mid-mounted and a long reach belt-rake on the back. He'd mow the actual underwater bit of the bank and drag his mowings out behind him. Going along a canal which turned out to be dead end. Reversing out again the whole bank suddenly slid down into the ditch. No way forward, no way back. I could just side-shift the flail so it wedged on the bottom of the ditch to stop sliding down further. Fortunately there was a road on the other side of the water, to park a crane on and lift the whole combo up and over the water...

I'm mildly confused (easily done). Are you the person that did it, and wondering whether your employee's reaction was appropriate? Slightly irrelevant really, but just to be clear. The only appropriate reaction would be to be concerned, at first... Then if no physical harm was done to any person the only thing to do is mock the perpetrator mercilessly for many months after! Yes, it probably caused an angry reaction at first, but if one cannot be faced with ones own mistakes and learn from them (rather than get cross at being confronted with your own stupidity through mockery) one would be a less than useless "boss-man-in-charge", gaining and deserving no respect from ones employees...

Husky by the way, off FR jones. You'll have no worries about warranty issues etc.
-
Buy a new one, use it for two years, then sell it and buy another new one. The warranty is two years, so no need to worry about parts. It'll cost you less than 50p/day assuming it sells for half price after two years (though most decent saws on eBay sell for nearer 75 to 80% of new value).

Hmmm, that's an interesting question, I wonder if its been asked before......?

She's wrong! Go with your instincts, deploy that sledge-hammer!

£3000 buys you a lot of "simpleton-brute with big shovel" hours....

Well, errrrm it's very technical and complicated... I've glued a 50p coin to the bar, right in the centre of the nose wheel, one either side. It fits within the rivets so does not pinch it. The other 50p is the deluxe upgrade I have on my bar, a 50p coin on a string to mark the difference in height as the riser is 50p higher than the one on the power head side. Do you reckon I could sell the idea for much?
-
I have a 36" rollo on my 660, with a £1.50 extension which allows a cut of nearly the full bar length. I reckon at 50p/inch extra cut its good value.

Am I the only one that's googled "batista230" ?

Daddy, please can you read my mind? Why? I was trying to tell you something but I've forgotten what it was....

eBay seller. See anything familiar? Am I being overly suspicious?
Daniël Bos replied to WorcsWuss's topic in Stolen Equipment
I wouldn't think twice either, that 261 for example is two years old, of dubious heritage, used and still MORE EXPENSIVE than a brand new, 2013 build, two year warranty saw of Mr Jones. -

Was I the only one that thought this thread would be about pretending to use a chainsaw in inappropriate moments, like playing air-guitar?
