    root systems are less likely to be damaged in woodland environment so the merip has to fight harder to get a hold?

    small trees = up to guide bar length medium trees = 1.5 times guide bar length large trees = twice guide bar and above solution = bigger guide bar:thumbup1:

    Again with the undeveloped fungi:thumbdown: seems to be a habit of mine that. Oh well never mind its all in my very slow learning curve. Too many fungi and not enough memory! Why are you jealous Hama? is it a rare one?

    use your side strop if and when possible for balance, either on the branch you are walking on or another close. Mostly its just finding a good position to advance and if you are not feeling balanced then try the other side of the branch or put the rope on the other side of your body etc. Some branch walks can be difficult but its just a matter of getting your balance and a little confidence. Your anchor point should also be as high as you can get it.

    gleophyllum trabeum? or sepiarium? i think trabeum looks about right but what do i know?

    I recently got a 346xp and its an eye opener of a wee saw, plenty power for such a small saw.

    As already said Husky or Stihl are both probably the best makers of chainsaws on the market. As for advice on how to use one then honestly you should consider going on CS30 course. Just the thought of someone picking up a chainsaw without any prior training scares the hell out of me and these machines imo should not be sold to anyone without some proof of competency in their use.

    dont want much do you:001_rolleyes: Problem is not knowing where to start with all those questions, and then once started, not having enough time in the day to answer it all. I hope you get plenty info but i think 1 question at a time would suffice:dontknow:

    whats wrong with tesco petrol? i use it all the time and dont have any problems with my saws. I just stick 5litres in the combi can in the morning and the rest in the car and i spend less than going to any of the big name petrol stations that imo sell the same stuff.
  23. David Goss
    haha i should have known better, i was expecting something completely different:001_rolleyes:

    I will need to do my best to try and get back there again within the next couple of weeks but i cant see it happening to be honest:thumbdown: Thanks again for the idents Gerrit I have a few more but i will need to pace them out or i will run out quickly with you around
  25. David Goss
    ah thats a shame because i cant see me being back there anytime in the near future. Oh well just have to move on to the next...
