  1. 2511 by a country mile. Anyone who's used mine is always disappointed that they bought the 150. The recent 2511s have ironed out any running issues that the earlier models were notorious for. The stihl 150 bar fits direct onto the echo with a 57 link chain. I've tried most combos and this one seems to be the best.
  2. That's solid "escapee dad" logic right there ?
  3. I was gonna mail it but that's not a bad shout!
  4. That long huh! I still get anyone who's used it offer to buy it from me. Fancy doing another one?
  5. here we go with another one... What do you do for a living mate?
  6. Send me a new 3/8 b&c and sprocket and I will...
  7. I think my ported 357 was pulling in excess of 200psi cold when Spud did it. That was a reconditioned cylinder from a previous seizure. That was a few years ago and it's been worked hard ever since.
  8. The above is why tree workers are often regarded as unintelligent.
  9. You'll be seeing it soon enough I imagine
  10. If you're happy to post it at my cost I'll take it mate. I'll pm you
  11. This all sounds very familiar. Perhaps a lesson will be learned at some point.
  12. I'd happily pay £300 for that if he doesn't buy it
  13. Pub life is going to be shit for a while anyway. I've no interest in having to book a slot and queue to drink in a heaving pub. I'll avoid them for another month or two until I can go back to popping for a spontaneous pint and a bite to eat.
  14. Leicester should have been locked down a long time ago IMO
  15. Too many seasoned tree folk have wasted their experience on this prat. Don't try and argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
  16. IME you'll get a build up behind the clutch no matter what oil you use. Clean it out whenever a clutch spring goes...
  17. Why would they make you take it to the uk, that's mental! They're must be plenty of French branches? (Pardon the pun)
  18. Why wouldn't they repair it under warranty?
  19. Why don't you just take it to your local dealer and get them to sort it?
  20. Looks like 5 Shires is really determined to prove us all wrong! ?
  21. My subscribers wouldn't appreciate it if I did that
  22. Thanks Ian. Now I look silly.
  23. Doesn't seem like anybody has been personal or slated you mate. I thought some of the prices and timeframes you mentioned were unrealistic. It's okay to disagree with people. Taking offense is a choice.
  24. Come on Wayne, you've been pretty vocal about what you thing this job should be worth. No need to throw your toys out when people disagreeing with you. That would be the discussion part of what this forum was designed for.
